Golly, Gee Whiz

I am longing for a simpler time. When people respected their elders, when Television actually had a "Family Hour", When mothers stayed home and baked and fathers took care of their children. I am tired of what has become accepted vocabulary... We have turned into an abrasive, abusive society who is too frequently using the F-word. (I include myself in this list) I want to hear people say things like they used to. Golly, Gee, Whiz, Wowee, Whoopsie Daisy, Dag nab it, Doggone it... I want to see Ladies wear white gloves again and men wear hats that do not have a bill in the front and a snap in the back. I want to go back before Woodstock, Free love and the brown acid...But once innocence is lost, there is never getting it back. The World's eyes have been open and the people have been exposed to violence on TV, video games and even sadder, today's schools are a place where children bring guns instead of bookbags. What happened? Where did we go? It is like the Lost Colony... Humanity has just about disappeared and no one knows what happened or where it went. Good Manners are a thing of the past... Why bother with Thank yous and Please? Today is a sad retrospective and a withering rant for days gone by. Note to Self: Cheer up, Something good will happen soon
