I'm not...I don't think we have 15 years ... I'm not sure we have until the elections ... but then, what is "The End"? I think one aspect has already come and gone.<br /><br />Using Germany of the 1930s is getting cliche-ish ... but did anyone in Germany of say 1936 (Summer Olympics) expect 1939? 1945?<br /><br />Luckily (???) I think I'm still young enough to be able to defend myself and family if need be ... perhaps walk a long way to "safety" - with a little luck ... if any can be found. Walking will be about the only mode of dependable transportation ... at least after the initial meltdown.<br /><br />Oh, well. I need to lose 20 pounds or so anyway.<br />QQuiziklenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-75335727126097119752012-03-29T13:03:22.664-04:002012-03-29T13:03:22.664-04:00I've been trying to deal with the "you Bo...I've been trying to deal with the "you Boomers screwed it all up" meme for some time, to no avail, of course. My favorite expression along those lines is: "Honor doesn't permit me to have a battle of wits with an unarmed man (or woman)." <br /><br />These poor, deluded fools just don't get the fact they are buying into the "99%", OWS, "Capitalism Sucks", Marxist meme. "The Rich, The Boomers, The Capitalists, The Corporations, The Republicans, The Jews" did it. Just like Geithner and all the rest, they have no solution, only the ability to stone some poor bastard to death because they simply _have_ to blame someone.<br /><br />I hope the suckage doesn't get so bad that I end up having to cap everyone under 30 who gets within 600 yards of my front porch. I'd much rather be teaching them, sharing what skills and experience I have gained in 60+ years, working to help keep civilization going for a few more generations.RegTnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-34319829496046615142012-03-29T09:10:10.835-04:002012-03-29T09:10:10.835-04:00Great postGreat postAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
