re: Growing trend I really don't like

Old yes, maybe. 54 this year. Is not was, my generation the best? Answer is no. But we perform at the best levels. Why? Because our parents generation was the best and they knew how to teach us and kick our butts. Even though we strayed, we knew where to come back to and we learned how to work and learn from the "BEST GENERATION". My generation in general failed with our sons and daughters for reasons of spoiling them and letting them believe there were no consequences for their behavior.
My generation has seen the best that America has to offer. The generation now will be the first that did not do better than the previous. It will not earn more and it will not have the same lifestyle. I see it everyday. I travel overseas at least 60% of my time and I see America loosing its leadership for many reasons.
But one thing never changes. I see Geaux Tigers stickers in remote bars in China. I see LSU T shirts hanging on the wall of a remote cafe in Rome. Coon Asses of my generation span the globe with our LSU propaganda machine and that will never change.
