[BITList] Where am I going wrong

[Malcolm]

I agree with you Colin.I was  those rockers. I thought that I was the bee
knees gong to the dance with Ena in her flared skirt with god how many under
skirts beneath and me in my powder suit.

As you know, from the days of the cave men to modern times, those of
advancing years have complained and criticized the young 'uns and claimed
times and things were much better when they were young.

It's part of the richness of advancing years that this inevitably occurs and
only we can see things and folk were better when we were young. 

I recall the chaotic scenes when Bill Hayley and the Comets hit the cinema
and kids started 'rocking around the clock', our parents thought they were
noisy, talentless crazies! The Beatles were also declared to be mop-haired
Liverpudlian wasters by older folk but they lasted an awful long time and
Paul is still going strong and is highly regarded in the entertainment
business, he also heads the list of the world's richest singers at $800
million.

After being away for nearly 3 years on Eastern Service I returned to the
sight of young women in mini-skirts-wow, but I got over it and didn't
complain. I can't imagine what 80 year olds at that time thought!

I have no interest in the talentless entertainers we see on TV consequently
I don't watch them - whether they be male or female.

You are not going wrong anywhere. Times change and peoples tastes change,
possibly our ability to bend with that wind diminishes with time!

But I keep a stiff upper lip...........................standards must be
maintained.

Now, being firmly ensconced in my 80's, I have been,for very many
years,bemused by the antics of the younger elements of our population. For
example:
Why do the so called musical "stars", that we constantly see on TV, have to
cavort around the stage,whilst "playing" their instruments accompanied by
ridiculous gymnastic performances which are there to divert attention from
the real lack of musicianship of the so called stars. In my days, and yours
too,be it in classical music,opera,Country or Jazz,the musicians of their
genre ,were musicians who played and performed,with their
groups(orchestra,choirs etc) in a virtually static position, the gyrations
and fancy lighting used today only makes me think that this side show is to
camouflage their real lack of musical knowledge and instead of giving a
musical performance,instead,gives you a psychedelic  performance,which,no
doubt, is fuelled by some form of  outside imbibed influence. 
Why do women nowadays have to mascara their eyes and use false eyelashes to
such a degree.? Can you imagine the scenario at night and in the morning
?why can't you look as you really are? What is your problem? Discreet makeup
is certainly ok,but really!!
Dare say,if any responses at all,it will make for interesting comments.C'est
la vie
