I am damn sure not a liberal but do consider them productive members of society. All though I am much older than most of these liberals I can only dream of what some of them are doing on trips through Nepal, Tibet, and China and they damn sure don't go 1st class. Perhaps you are like me and wish you could be part of it? Speak of mindless drivel-you are it pal. You should be looking at the trip blogs and pictures and patting these "liberal" youngsters on the back instead of putting them down (if you even exist)
I live in the south of USA; very poor place 45 years ago. My 1st bike was made from old tractor parts. Each tire weighed about 150 lbs, the seat was the old metal type from a "John Deere" it weighed 76 lbs! My first trip was over 5,000 miles, I went to the Pacific Ocean and back in 10 days and never ate or drank. Well I did eat some road kill a time or two. Are you part of a one man admiration society. You don't like mindless drivel but your drivel was the longest post I have ever read half of.

Technology-embrace it or set life out!!

I love it.

Thank you so much for the laugh, rich1918.

It is always good to hear a well-constructed diatribe.

Shame the grammar and spelling went a bit wonky towards the end, must have been at the height of your impassioned rant.

Who amongst us is not guilty of looking at teenagers today and remarking on how spoilt they are, with their i-Pods, $400 mobile phones, new clothes - I know it certainly wasn't like that for me in the 1970s anyway... (haha)

Good work, keep them coming...
