Kids These Days

Dear Mrs Higgins,

Recently I heard a high schooler say he couldn’t wait to get home and play with his wee.

I told the young man in a quiet voice, that I understood, but maybe that isn’t the best thing to talk about in public.

Shortly after that, another young man complained that he was exhausted from playing with his wee all night.

Kinda winced a bit on that one, but who knows, maybe he doesn’t have cable.

Later I heard a group of kids planning an entire party on Bill’s wee.

Hmm.

Well, as you know Mrs H, I’m a live and let live kind of guy.

And I’ve had my wild times. As you recall, sophomore year I was vice president of the chess club. So I know all about things getting a little crazy.

Not sure we have to have all this talk about it though.

Oh well, another generation. And I think someone needs to explain to Michael Phelps what “going green” really means.

What do you think Mrs H?

Mike



Dear Mike,

Its Wii, not wee. It is a video game. Do you ever leave your
office?

Maybe you should worry less about the new generation and
more about yours.

Too bad about young Phelps. The picture with the bong will likely not appear on Corn Flakes, although there may be a late night market there.

And yes, I’m sure you were quite the wild man - chess boy.

Mrs Higgins
