Changing Times

A big mouth college student challenged a senior citizen he was sitting next to on a bus. He claimed it was impossible for the older generation to understand his world.
“You grew up in a different world,” the student said. “Today we have television, jet planes, space travel, nuclear energy, computers, the internet…”
Taking advantage of a pause in the student’s litany, the senior said, “You’re right sonny. We didn’t have those things when we were young… so we invented them!”
