talkin' 'bout my generation

  • When the William Tell Overture comes on the radio, it must be blasted, especially if there are others in the house who are sleeping too late.
  • In my brain, the Beatles are the original rock group.
  • When I was a small child I thought I'd be taking casual trips to the moon when I grew up.
  • I knew what a googol was long before there was a Google. (Mrs Bloom taught us in elementary school.)
  • The word "ansible" makes makes me think first of Ursula K LeGuin, and possibly of 'tesseract'. After that I think of ansible software, which must be very cool to be deserving of such a name.
  • My fear of nuclear catastrophe was replaced by fear of catastrophic global-warming. There may have been a bit of a break in between.
  • Washington National Airport already had a President's name; why add Reagan's?
  • When we studied U.S. History in school, we were taught to admire politicians who made compromises.
  • I used to think Apple was on our side.
  • I use my index fingers to text.
