Remember when the only way you could look at your first porn was to find it under your dad's bed?

I blame the comedians telling us what to think. Do you think Sarah Palin would have had more credibility if Tina Fey hadn't seized the opportunity to put some cash in her pockets? Do you think that the goalless rise of Atheism (atomic matter was always here, never created, or God was always here, never created? Come on, pick your poison) would be gaining a foothold if it weren't for the likes of Bill Maher, George Carlin, and the mindless stooges that make up Comedy Central, who are systematically destroying the core values of America for a laugh? Its the oldest religion, the Holy Dollar, and every a$$hole with a microphone is an evangelist on every channel.

People are living longer, their retirement plan is up for grabs on Wall Street, and their quality of life sucks. Too old to work, too broke to live? Thank God for the greeter gig at Walmart, right?

I can kill a man in a jealous rage and hardly do time, but you throw a shoe at the foreign president who decimated your country and you're life is ruined. Go figure.

you still reading this crap?

"you could smoke anywhere at anytime?"
Ah the good ol days"
I remember my mom taking my sister and I to the Dr. And he lit up right in front of us, in his office. Now Dr's tell you how bad it is to smoke, before they go outside and smoke with the nurses..

You bet having been born in 61 and loved the 70's great music, great movies and great friends
