I think of all the things I've seen in my brief time here and wonder what it will be like at the end of my life. My grandparents were born in the 1890's and lived almost 100 years - imagine the changes they saw - cars and planes came about, all the world wars, space travel, computers, holy friggin moly.
And yes, I remember the fear of a nuclear war - knowing what I know now about politicians though I'm not afraid of anything that involves government anymore except taxes.
