Something different. - Page 52

wow....well....hope u got enough fire wood...or it will be a long winter of self butt kicking..:)

No,
I think a color would be better for everyone, give the site a little class.

It will be a few more weeks before I can get new glasses, that will be a big help too.

Yeah got wood, just have to pack it and split it..
Not sure how this winter will play out just yet.

For now I'm just hoping the ice doesn't get bad enough to knock out the power lines.
Doesn't look like it will.
 

Welcome back Moons.

Thanks Carlin,
Hope you get the bike btw...lol

Hope you get the bike btw...lol

 

I miss the smell of the exhaust, the roar from the pipe, and the feel of the bike bucking like a wild mustang after a 4-2 downshift.  Someday...

Just helped the boy put his away for winter, too cold here for riding now.
 

Interesting article on why Generation "Y" is typically found to be unhappy or unfulfilled.  Not sure where my myself and fellow Gen X'ers fall in the equation.

So...
your unhappy?

I don't think I could agree with this information.
It seem for for entertainment than anything else.
 

So...
your unhappy?

No, I wouldn't consider myself unhappy, but then again, I rarely think in those terms to begin with.  Younger people are found to have a much less hopeful outlook on things in general.  I suppose you could say that it's just consistent with the problems in modern society, but we tend to view things in the now, forgetting how previous generations must have felt when they were confronted with their own issues.  Gen Y for instance, the group focused in the article, has no idea what it was like to live daily life under the veil of the threat of the cold war and pending nuclear holocaust (not that such a thing could never happen, but today certainly constitutes a much different landscape).  I think the article does well in pointing out how societal differences from one generation to the next affects their development.  My grandparents and all their friends were WWII generation; such different people than the boomers.  The main thing I notice is the increase in narcissism across the board with concurrent generations, and there is much data to support the observation.

My grand parents generation was not manipulated as has been increasingly every generation since.
We bought what they were selling, and now we realize they are selling us.
Why do you suppose people are living in the now?
If you look around you'll see that the whole world is unhappy in the now.

I believe these things run in cycles and we are past the peak heading down now.
