Yeah For The Seniors

A very "self-important" college freshman

attending a recent football game, took it upon himself

to explain to a senior citizen sitting next to him why

it was impossible for the older generation to

understand his generation. "You grew up in a

different world, actually an almost primitive one."

The student said, loud enough for many of those nearby

to hear. "We, the young people of today, grew up with

television, jet planes, space travel, men walking on

the moon, our spaceships have visited Mars. We have

nuclear energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers

with light-speed processing and...," pausing to take

another drink of beer.

The Senior took advantage of the break

in the student's litany and said, "You're right, son. We didn't have those things when we were young

........so we invented them.

Now, you arrogan t litt le twit, what are you doing for the next generation?"

The applause was resounding.. I love senior citizens.
