[DeTomaso] Fwd: StopLight Camera License Plate Diffusers Beware!

Doggy Style, the music time for me ...was actually Alice Cooper, Rolling Stones, Clapton..... The big difference today is the general lack of respect I see with the youngsters these days.  I mean they will bump right into you and say nothing, many seem a bit mouthy.......  Not to paint them all bad, but generally they are lazy, and its just all about them!

Trust me I have employed tons of them at the store, and let as many happily go that would rather smoke pot with their friends on the weekends down by the river....  The difference was I had a job when I was 15 years old.  I worked at a boneyard after school pulling parts in Huntington Beach.  I respected my elders, and I was taught always to treat a lady with respect.   We did not have Whores and Bitches.

I am just not convinced decent reasonable values and respect have passed to todays kids, when you do see this stuff it is the real exception.    In my case I grew up around my grandparents that were all Great Americans in their own right.  And despite my mother being a single Mother, she worked hard and took care of her son and taught him well.  She never took a government hand out despite her motherhood with me when she was 15.  Nope, I think there is a big difference today.

  Wot are you talking about Donny?
  I remember when you had long hair and listened to STONE TEMPLE PILOTS.....kids are more focused and dedicated today then they were in the 70's or 80's.....now maybe not as good or as fun as they were in the 60's but then if you can remember the 60's you weren't there bro' ;-]>

    Michael......I am laughing at your last paragragh, you got yourself all 
    frothed up Mister! But I knew exactly what you were talking about. Its 
    usually some white boy, who just loves dat rappa music, has the hood on his 
    sweater over his head, or alternatively the baseball hat on, and wearing it 
    sideways, driving a ricer car with a Coffee can Tip on the exhaust with the 
    hubcaps removed for that really stealth look....... Yes, society surely is 
    churning out some really pathetic kids these days........
