I Missed It!

I bought into the Great Americana Culture Syndrome. I graduated high school in 1984. I was the high school starting quarterback... and not a good one! I was so caught up in social drama and vain entertainments, that I didn't even realize (or care) what was going on in the world. My head was in the sand. Amusement ("not think") had captivated my mind, and the depth of worthless things preoccupied my time. Whether my hair looked good was "Oh, so important."

And while I was imbibing in the cultural wine, Reaganomics were taking hold. I had not a clue what Ronald Reagan was about. All that I knew of our president was what I learned in rap songs... pathetic... I know.

Now I am trying to catch up on lost time. It is everywhere. I am thankful for the books, and yes, youtube. The information is not lost... but you sure won't get it handed to you from the liberal media. You will have to dig. The main reason for my blogging is for my kids, and my grand kids. Another reason is to leave a record of resources for myself. If along the way someone alights upon this treasure... well, so much the better. For an excellent analysis of socialism, from President Reagan... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gIxuOabGBE&NR=1
