I'm quickly learning that a cruel part of getting older is having to make concessions in areas where you were either too stupid or too egomaniacal to concede before.  Basically, the longer you live, the more times you have to throw your hands up and say, "Whatever".

One area where this comes into play is with the fads, trends, and popular culture of the times in which you live.  No one wants to be that fuddy-duddy who thinks their iTunes account is tied to their phone bill, or records their "stories" on their VCR, or uses the term "The Facebooks", or still watches Standard-Definition TV, or utters phrases like "Gettin' jiggy wit' it".  However, like it or not, we are all marked with our relative expiration dates.  No, I'm not talking about our true dates of expiration, but the date when we simply become culturally obsolete.


I believe this is colloquially known as being "old"...

My Apologies

To anyone who visited the site on Tuesday, January 31, 2012 (especially first time vistors) I apologize for its "orangeness".  I was tinkering with the settings the night before and didn't realize that I had changed anything. 

Unfortunately, while I was able to get the main color layout back, I completely forgot how the Comments box looked.  If anyone can provide me with information on that or any other ideas you have about the site's color scheme, please let me know.  I think I hate the way the site looks but can't really find something I like.  Maybe a less-critical eye would help.


Thanks Guys,


Are G. Busy
