About Me

Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a daily basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

The Youth Of Today Are Devil Worshipers

Every generation looks at the upcoming generation as the downfall of society.
It goes back as far as the beginning of the written word.
I have heard,
but I can't find the documents to prove it,
that
Egyptian Scribes
complained about their civilization's youth because of their frequent use of cannabis.
Still don't believe me?
Here are some more recent documents I could find.
According to
Scientific America
chess was ruining our youth.
which appeared in the July 2nd, 1859 issue of Scientific American.

 In the 1790 book
Reverend Enos Hitchcock wrote
"The free access which many young people have to romances, novels, and plays has poisoned the mind and corrupted the morals of many a promising youth and prevented others from improving their minds in useful knowledge."
From the 1780 book
Thomas Sheridan wrote
"The total neglect of the art of speaking has been productive of the worst consequences. English is likely to become a mere jargon, which everyone may pronounce as he pleases." 

And of course,
you can find many more items like this if you want to do the research yourself.
