History

When I was a kid
When i was a kid, you could see All the movies.
Today, everybody's kid is a director and has a video production studio in the basement.

When I was a kid, if I saw something on TV,
there was a 1 in 3 chance everyone saw it.
Today things are so watered down by marketing demographics,
almost every moment can be spoon fed to your taste.

When I was a kid, everyone I knew, played the guitar.
Today, everyone i know, plays the MP3.

Today, things are so watered down by marketing demographics,
with an almost endless supply of new age media outlets.
Almost every moment of person's life can be spoon fed to your taste.

It is almost a pitiful situation. Talk about your organized propaganda machines.

Ever Heard of moderation, come on now, some of you are like a bunch of junkies
to your own beliefs.

It is a information superhighway, not a information mainline.

If you only have one channel, you need to have your tv fixed.

This is a cool video, Long before i was a kid..

shot from the front of a
San Francisco Street Car in 1906 ... smile

If there is or ever has been a hidden influence on Mankind, it would
be the one to stop or slow science.
