ITs PAULS... our beloved leaders birthday today ...
so just a few thoughs
Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things.
The people who started university this year were generally born in 1986.
They are too young to remember the Challenger space shuttle blowing up.
Their lifetime has always included AIDS.
Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic.
The CD was introduced the year before they were born.
They have always had an answering machine
They cannot fathom not having a remote control.
They never took a swim and thought about Jaws.
They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are.
They do not care who shot J. R. and have no idea who J. R. even is.
McDonald's never came in Styrofoam containers.
They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.
Notice the larger type, that's for those of you who have trouble reading.

...they were five when Nirvana broke into the big time
...they were six when Clinton was elected
...the first Star Wars prequel came out when they were eleven
...they've probably had their own cell phone since they were in elementary school
