    Old Man Rant

    Nothing they make today is as good as they used to make it!

    Everything costs too much!

    Where did I put my keys!?

    You kids get off my darned lawn!

    I totally agree.
    Life was better in the 70s.
    Toys were more fun.
    The euro made everything more expensive.
    I had more hair.
    I still believed in making the world a better place.

    Did I miss anything?

            The good old days. The memory alone makes me itch and smile....

                Now, the Sixties... That was a great era to be a kid in.....

                        And comics!!

                        Most of todays are too grim and angsty (you call those heroes?)

                        If the colors of the Marvel comics were any more drab and bland, it would be in black and white?

                        Too many artists who can't draw!!

                        And the price??

                        Don't even get me started....
