The Decline of Western Civilization

Or as goes Egypt, so goes everybody else. Found this piece at Sandmonkey some time back, and just re-discovered it.

I for one think it’s the worst thing that ever happend to us, because it deprived us of a whole generation of “Old wise men”. You see, men go through life thinking with their penis, and when they hit a certain age where their “drill sargent” doesn’t “stand at attention”, they start using their other brain, you know, the one above their necks. That’s why we used to have old wise men to counsel us; and now we have Viagra dads.

The drug that destroys the wise men whom we used to rely on for leadership and, well, wisdom.

Sandmonkey is a great source of observed wisdom about the middle east.
