Ode To The Class Of 2010

As the West Village begins to fill up with lost looking little ones, Z's realizing that most of these kids, who for the record were born in 1988, are very different from my pushing-30 ass.

A few facts from our friends at Beloit College:
*The Soviet Union has never existed and therefore is about as scary as the student union.
*There has always been only one Germany.
*"Google" has always been a verb.
*Text messaging is their email.
*Madden has always been a game, not a Superbowl-winning coach.
*Reality shows have always been on television.
*They have no idea why we needed to ask "...can we all get along?"
*They have always known that "In the criminal justice system the people have been represented by two separate yet equally important groups."
*They have rarely mailed anything using a stamp.
*They are not aware that "flock of seagulls hair" has nothing to do with birds flying into it.
*They have always been searching for "Waldo."
*Sara Lee has always made underwear.
*Television stations have never concluded the broadcast day with the national anthem.
*Diane Sawyer has always been live in Prime Time.
*Disposable contact lenses have always been available.
