I can’t believe the semester is close to over. We were recently assigned our second exam and it seemed like such an easy topic until Professor Sistrunk left the length up to us. This gives you an endless canvas to fill with information. Technology is changing constantly, things that you would have never imagined are being created as I sit here typing. When I was just a youngin’ I had tons and tons of VHS. (I STILL HAVE THEM). I felt ancient at my garage sell when I tried to get rid of some of my tapes and the kids asked me what they were and had no clue what a VCR was. When I was younger I had cassette tapes, and you had to flip it over to get to the other half of the songs. CDs and DVDs have emerged within my lifetime and they are dying right before my eyes. It is crazy to be around during the birth and the death of certain technology. What is next to come. Movie theaters were a family outing to look forward to, and now they are slowly going extinct also. New technology is cool and everything but at what point do you stop and stay content with what is already around you. Sometimes it just seems like too much and too overwhelming. I guess I am just too old school for my generation. Give me a good VHS, or throw in an old school cassette tape and I am chillin!
