Junior, Can You Paradigm?
Mark Steyn notes that once again, the Boomers keep to their paradigm and found a way to get someone else to pay the tab for their excesses.
And why not the 20-somethings? After all, the Boomer’s parents are out of the picture now, or soon will be; the Gen Xers have correctly identified Boomers as the source of most of the country’s screw-ups, so that leaves… well, the Hopers as the next source of tab-up-picking.
Problem is of course, the Greatest Generation they ain’t just yet.
Божію Поспѣшествующею Милостію Мы, Дима Грозный Императоръ и Самодержецъ Всероссiйскiй, цѣсарь Московскiй. The Czar was born in the steppes of Russia in 1267, and was cheated out of total control of all Russia upon the death of Boris Mikhailovich, who replaced Alexander Yaroslav Nevsky in 1263. However, in 1283, our Czar was passed over due to a clerical error and the rule of all Russia went to his second cousin Daniil (Даниил Александрович), whom Czar still resents. As a half-hearted apology, the Czar was awarded control over Muscovy, inconveniently located 5,000 miles away just outside Chicago. He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
