Allow me to quote somebody or other: Nostalgia ain't what it used to be.

Those who waste their energy lamenting how things are not as good as they used to be already have one foot in the grave. Today is always the best day ever if you and everyone you care about are healthy and safe. At least that's how I see it.

You can't change what happened yesterday, and you don't know what's going to happen tomorrow - so live each day as if its your last, because some day you are going to be right!

Seriously, the only thing I "miss" from the "good 'ole days" is I think 25 - 50 years ago, folks had better manners, and exhibited a little more common courtesy.

And if you don't agree, kiss my phucking ass

Sorry, man, that's just such a good lead-in it's a shame to let it go to waste....

Your "what??" ass? Sorry. I've never used mine for that.....

Are you used to having it kissed after it's been "phucked"?

Sorry, a hundred more come to mind....

Amen! I have a Mobile Fidelity UHQR album of Supertramp's 'Crime of the Century'. I used to have an UHQR version of Alan Parsons's 'I Robot'.
The Mobile Fidelity UHQR vinyl records can't be beat! They only made about 5000(?) of each recording, and that only included about a dozen different bands. I'd like to have a copy of Pink Floyd's 'Dark Side of the Moon', or the Beatles 'Sgt. Peppers'. The UHQR albums can occasionally still be found on Ebay for anywhere from $200 to $800 or so, depending on the band. No digital version can touch those UHQR albums! The vinyl versions just have more 'presence' or 'impact'. Anyone who doesn't realize that doesn't know what the phuck they're talking about. How do you explain that to someone under the age of 40 or so, who listens only to MP3 versions at a bit rate of 128 or 256 kbps? Hell, even WAV or 'lossless' compression techniques pale in comparison to a Mobile Fidelity vinyl recording on a good stereo system or with good headphones. Of course, for much of the music produced today, the quality just isn't that important. I mean, how much 'presence', 'impact', timbre, etc is necessary when listening to rap/hip-hop/'house'/Lady Gaga, etc.?

The best thing to do is not to dwell on the past, but to look forward to the next piece of ass! I am thankful for every new day and what experience it brings. I live life in the present and look forward for the future. When I get ready to stay on the porch is when I will reflect on the good ol days. Until then "Burn Rubber"!

Good Greengo post. Sounds like it was "the best of times and the worst of times" (Dickens), much like it is now.
Actually we are all very lucky to be alive.
On the other hand, I could have it better; I could be Prince Harry and phucking Kate right now. What a fine looking woman, even for a commoner. At least he didn't marry his cousin, like they used to do, but I digress.
