You might find your destination better if

You remember the old believe everything, the middle age suspect everything and the young know everything

MAKING ALLOWANCE FOR YOUTH'S INEXPERIENCE

Each year the staff at Beloit College in Wisconsin puts together a list

 to try to give the faculty a sense of the mindset

 of this year's incoming freshmen.

Here's this year's list:

  

The people who are starting college this year were born in 1992

THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD  

"de plane, Boss, de plane" 

"I'd walk a mile for a camel"

"Where's the Beef?"

They don't know who Mork was

or where he was from

They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up

Their lifetime has always included AIDS.

Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic

The CD was introduced 2 years before they were born

They have always had an answering machine

They have always had cable

They cannot fathom not having a remote control

Jay Leno has always been on the Tonight Show

Popcorn has always been cooked in a microwave

They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are

They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter

HAVE WE CHANGED? 

 WELL, THIS IS BILL O'REILLY HEADING TO COLLEGE

I AM 8 YEARS OLDER THAN HE IS

IF YOU ARE OUR AGE

YOUR MEMORY GOES MUCH FURTHER BACK

DO YOU REMEMBER?
