<DIV><FONT size=2>Thanks a lot Frank, I really needed that. I looked at
Goldwings today. $20,000, tax, tags and title. I called the one who
commands and told her what I was about to do and her response was "WHATEVER"
which as you know means don't come home with it. Ah youth, grand
wasn't it???</FONT></DIV>

<P>SUBJECT: THE CLASS OF 2004 Just in case you weren't feeling too old today,
this will certainly change things. Each year the staff at Beloit College in
Wisconsin puts together a list to try to give the Faculty a sense of the
mindset of this year's incoming freshman. Here is this year's list: The people
who are starting college this fall across the nation were born in 1982. They
have no meaningful recollection of the Reagan Era and probably did not know he
had ever been shot. They were prepubescent when the Persian Gulf War was
waged. Black Monday, 1987 is as significant to them as the Great Depression.
There has been only one Pope. They were 11 when the Soviet Union broke apart
and do not remember the Cold War. They have never feared a nuclear war. They
are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up. Tianamen Square means
nothing to them Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic. Atari
predates them, as do vinyl albums. The expression "You sound like a brok en
record" means nothing to them. They have never owned a record player. They
have likely never played Pac Man and have never heard of Pong. They may have
never heard of an 8 track. The Compact Disc was introduced when they were 1
year old. As far as they know, stamps have always cost about 33 cents. (Now
$.37.) They have always had an answering machine. Most have never seen a TV
set with only 13 channels, nor have they seen a black and white TV. They have
always had cable. There have always been VCRs, but they have no idea what BETA
was. They cannot fathom not having a remote control. They don't know what a
cloth baby diaper is, or know about the "Help me, I've fallen and I can't get
up" commercial. Feeling old Yet? There's more: They were born the year that
Walkmen were introduced by Sony. Roller skating has always meant inline for
them. Jay Leno has always been on the Tonight Show. They have no idea when or
why Jordache jeans were cool. Popcorn has always been cooked in t he
microwave. They have never seen Larry Bird play. They never took a swim and
thought about Jaws. The Vietnam War is as ancient history to them as WWI, WWII
and the Civil War. They have no idea that Americans were ever held hostage in
Iran. They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are. They don't know who
Mork was or where he was from. They never heard: "Where's the beef?", "I'd
walk a mile for a Camel," or "De plane, De plane!". They do not care who shot
J.R. and have no idea who J.R. was. The Titanic was found? They thought we
always knew. Michael Jackson has always been white. Kansas, Chicago, Boston,
America, and Alabama are places, not rock bands. McDonalds never came in
styrofoam containers. There has always been MTV. They don't have a clue how to
use a typewriter. Do you feel old yet? Pass this on to the other old fogies.
But don't send it back to me, I feel old enough. </P></FONT></DIV></DIV><BR
