Where did the years go?

The kids had me travel to Stoney Creek for a belated birthday bbg and this is the card they gave me that got me to thinking.



On the drive home and listening to the usual radio station with all the good tunes, the speakers start pushing out some Rolling Stones, Beatles, and Grateful Dead. Great music but the scary part is that one knows all the words to the song and then you realize that they were original released over 30 years ago!



I have been lucky to be on the leading edge of technology for so many years. Having been part of having the fax replaced with email, private networks in corporations to a world wide public network and phone booths replaced with cell phones. Small cars went to station wagons to Vans/SUVs and now back to smaller cars and cross-overs. Whether it's newspapers now being replaced with blogs, social networks and internet wiki, technology has changed more in the last 10 years than the entire century prior that. Maybe given the opportunity we may even have a cure for old age. I love and embrace what technology has and continues to do you mankind. Activities happen so much faster now than ever before and all the major crisis that seemed so critical at the time, now seems almost insignificant.


Digital technology and the Internet is changing everything we do faster than any single human can keep up with. There are just too many variables in this day and age for one person to think they know it all. Education, engagement, and collaboration is the wave of the future.
