Cartoon - Old

When I was a kid I always wondered why my parents talked about stuff that happened before about 1975 all the time, but now that I'm going to be 44 and I have a 12-year-old daughter about to become a teenager and a 5-year-old son, I know why. Oldsters don't mean to keep the 'yung 'uns out of the conversation, and they really do care about you -- deeply we care about you kids. It is just the fact that a LOT OF SHIT HAPPENED BEFORE YOU WERE BORN. That reminds me of the time with the car that got stuck in the sand near Mono Lake, back in 1993 when I was dating this girl from Apple Computer. I remember, when we got stuck, she said, "Blah blah blah bla bla. Blah bla bla. Bla bla meep beep blah bla blah." Blah blah wonk wonk, wonk blah blob blob blob. And then we blah blah bha, by the blah bla bonk blob wonk wonk. And they said blaaaah wonk, -- wonk & wonk blah blah blah. And that was a fun time. Ba Ba blah blah blah, taxes, blah life, school.
