100 Years of Change

I did a project for my creativity class and thought that I should write a quick entry on our last 100 years because it is mind boggling.  I cant hope to include 1% of the important happenings in the last 100 years but here are some then and nows that are mind boggling for me!

  • THEN: Trench Warfare In Europe
  • NOW: Tactile Urban Warfare supported by cruise missiles, satellites, flying gun ships and UAV
  • THEN: Bi Planes
  • NOW: Millions of people flying in 300+ people airliners. Flying anywhere in the world in 24 hrs.
  • THEN: Racism, Discrimination, MLK, Malcome X
  • NOW: Black and Female Presidential Candidates + “homies”, “urban” culture that is causing MLK to turn over in his undeserved grave.  Go McCain!
  • THEN: In the 60’s Sex, Love, Peace, Rock and Roll, Drugs
  • NOW: Still Sex, less love, no peace, Rap and drugs for RLS but outlawed of all the good stuff
  • Ok a little side note…. they need to outlaw alcohol and tobacco as they are proven killers of people and ruiner’s of lives and legalize marijuana as California could make almost a billion dollars if they could tax the sale of it and it causes no one harm.  To quote Robin Williams we need more Atomic “Bongs” as appose to Atomic Bomb

    Any way a little short post of then and now…. I will try to put my ppt up if I can find out how~!  COMMENT PLEASE!
