Quotation of the Day for February 19, 2015"Actually, it always seemed to me that the Class of '68 was the last bunch of kids not seriously despoiled in their youth by television (with its insidious brainworm commercials) and drugs. Chances were they'd spent their first years of life without a TV and had to use their imagination to entertain themselves. Perhaps they'd even played with some non-corporate-developed toys and read a few books. Sans malls, they hung out at candy stores and had milk delivered by the milkman and the doctor came to their bedrooms when they were ill. Since then, TV and the malls and the drugs have annually compounded the Big Stupid we live with now." - Donald Fagen, musician, from his book Eminent Hipsters.
