- The biggest mistake mistake we've made is deemphasizing voctech in favor of a stronger STEM program. We all need plumbers. car mechanics, electricians, etc.   There will always be people who either by talent, means or interest. These are good paying careers.

- We desperately need an impartial counselor in the Student Loan process, Someone to say "Your loan is $x / mo, entry level salaries in your field pay $Y/mo, Housing, food and necessitates cost $z/ mo. Is this a good plan? Can we find another plan?". The problem is that it's in no one's best interest to ask that question, except the student. The high school wants a higher percentage of their students to go to college. The bank wants you to take the loan because it's federally guaranteed. Parents want their kids dreams to come true.

In the far future, archeologists will dig up these memes and try to figure out why people of our generation couldn't multiply.

I keep hearing that the original Ghost Busters are in the new film. I'm looking forward to see these guys again.

With e-books becoming more and more popular, book stores are branching out to find new sources of income.

I have to believe that somewhere in Hollywood there's a reboot of Green Acres being pitched where the couple flee Manhattan due to Covid.

I wanted to be a cockroach for Halloween, luckily I just woke up this way.
