I weep every time I read a pro Ron Paul post. (& yes it is pretty much always a yout).

I could cop out and say "all music on the radio" but that's the easy answer.

Let's go with everything about this link.

Prior generations feeling sorry for them.

They also missed Marv Albert calling games in his prime, as the #1 Play-by-play announcer. The golden age of the Association.

This is my childhood. I'm almost certain I would watch more basketball than I currently do if this was still around. Hopefully sometime in the future NBC can reclaim broadcast rights from the Disney Channel and this intro will make it's glorious return.

The other day there was a screenshot making it's rounds of Tweets from people who were under the impression that Titanic was a fictional boat from a movie. That was pretty discouraging to see. If I were a dinosaur I would be pissed that my kind were wiped off the earth while this goes unpunished.

The current state of music and the realization that it will only get worse. It's true that coming up with an original idea is tough with all of the ideas and material that has accumulated throughout history, but that doesn't mean that everyone should outright stop trying.

That song is too long. They should keep it at 40 seconds like God intended.

Yes that old NBA theme was fantastic.

Zippy, I know. Kudos to the youths for rejecting the Republicans and Democrats, but then they ruin it by idolizing either extreme green-type wackos or radical isolationist nut-jobs.

I weep for the kids because the baby boomers (here I go again) have robbed them and will continue to rob them of a fair chance at a good life. But at least those boomers will be in touch with their feelings about it while they do it.

But then that link provided above with the tweets makes me no longer weep for them, but instead root for a plague.

Wait til they find out Pearl Harbor was real too. And that Independence Day and Armageddon weren't. I know some of these youts, and yeah they really are the idiots they come off as. Sorry.

Hey, someone has to fill the role of crusty curmudgeon since Reason isn't around.
