The Old Man Speaks His Mind

I decided today, while I was trying to teach the children, that I kind of wish this whole internet thing . . . the digital revolution, AI, Google searches, cell phones, personal computing devices, all of it . . . that maybe we'd all be better off if it never happened-- while there's more information available than ever, I think it's made the children scatter-brained and ignorant and I think we were all smarter when we were reading books, magazines, and newspapers-- but, unfortunately, I can't turn back the clock so I'm probably just going to be grouchy until I retire.
