Woke up to a 25 degree temp and a report that it snowed in Tucson on New Year’s Eve.

Happy New Year to you, Sheila, John and Chris!

[luvie]

Happy New Year, fellow night-owl! :)....and critters!

Y’all and we have the same weather. It snowed a bit overnight here, too, but it ain’t melting anytime soon. It’s still only 22 degrees.

Stay warm! All the best for this new year, Sandy!

[SandRat]

Got my flannel shirt on & wool socks to stay warm.

All the best Luv.

Happy new year to all Alaskan freepers after little champagne I couldn’t stay up to wish my Alaskan relatives happy new year on FB LOL!

We tend to be divorced from much of popular culture because it has become so debased. I admit that when I looked at those videos, I wasn't sure if I should post them. Luvvie Sue was right that they were dark and probably inappropriate for a New Years celebration.

But I realized that they should be part of the record for 2014. I'm socially tolerant of popular culture, but even I couldn't stomach some of the stuff in those videos. Yet our troops grew up with this stuff, are exposed to this stuff on a daily basis, and are probably used to it. They may even like a lot of it.

It's the problem of age. Each generation sees the next generation coming up as barbarians.

I won't do it again next year because I think I've proven my point. We're in trouble, not just as a nation, but as a culture. Those Top 10 videos were a sobering experience for me.

[luvie]

Imagine how awful the ones AFTER the Top 10 might be!

No, don’t. It might fry your brain!

Happy New Year, LUV!

“Once burned, twice shy.”

[luvie]

Indeed. Or post the smooth jazz top 40. It’s way more awesome. :)

[Publius]

Anything to avoid hip-hop. It’s even infiltrated Country music. It’s like cancer.

[luvie]

It’s horrible and I noticed that. I don’t CARE about “cool”! I just want lyrics that have meaning besides something violently- or sexually explicit! Is that too much to ask?

I guess it is.
