11. Well, I'll tell you what pal- I may be pushing 50 but the way things are

going, you'll be lucky if the world don't end before you reach 30! So, I got 20 years on you, ya bastahd!

Nyah nyah- nyah nyah nyah!

and by the way- I was alive during the most important era of this great country- the youth movement! I was into Abbie (my hero) and the Yippies and C.O.R.E., Malcom X, MLK, The Black Panthers while they were still around-

I was there! You can only read about them in history books- oh, right- they won't be included in the history books written by the establishment, man! heheheh

But seriously- WE NEED YOU! We need ALL of you kids to stand up and fight the madness! Take a lesson from us "old guys" and hit the streets and MAKE SOME NOISE! And I'll promise you this- we'll be right behind you- no- we'll be RIGHT BESIDE YOU!

Hopefully this time the revolution will stick.
