Kids Today

Today, there are 3-year-olds who have their own tablets and have the ability to open educational apps to learn to spell and count — completely unsupervised.
When I was 3, my greatest accomplishment was making a mud pie …and I ate it.

Of course, I later learned how to spell and write complete sentences, so maybe I came out ahead …thanks to the extra minerals.

Randy Cassingham is best known as the creator of This is True®, the oldest entertainment feature on the Internet: it has been running weekly by email subscription since early 1994. It is social commentary using weird news as its vehicle so it’s fun to read. Click here for the site — basic subscriptions are free.


Comments? Sorry: Facebook retired their commenting system (they didn’t even bother to alert me). Just as well, I suppose, but sadly there is no way to recover the many hundreds of comments made on this site. Lesson learned: never rely on someone else’s site for prime functions, especially “social media”!

Since this site is mostly retired now (maximum of one new post per month), I did decide that since all comments are now gone that I would not attempt to install any new commenting system. -rc
