It's a New World

Here's a taste of the world you live in if you were born around the year 2010:

(I have had this conversation twice, separately, once with each boy.)

Rush or Tate, holding in ipod that they found in a drawer:  What's this?
Me:  It's an ipod.  Back before people had music on their phones, you could put music on an ipod and listen to it. 
R/T:  Really?!  [Implied:  How quaint!]  So I can have this?
Me:  No.

Let's not let that imply that we don't also have dozens of scratched cd's still floating around the house.  The kids have a cd player in their room that they don't necessarily associate with a gramophone.  

Then today Holly had a Tweety Bird band-aid from her flu shot.  All three kids were like, who is that?  Bugs Bunny?  Never heard of him.


So tonight while Trent was mowing the law I found Looney Toons and settled everyone in for some cultural literacy development.
