When I was growing up in the 60's and early 70's it was standard rhetoric to say that we were alienated. If you weren't alienated you were a dork. At least we thought so in our callow minds. We were rebelling against the values of our middle class existence. Far out, man. We would "rap" and we had it all figured out. Now in our 60's rather than growing up in the 60's we are alienated once again watching the shrinking middle class in this country. History plays its dirty tricks. Yes, I'm still alienated but in a different way. My callow mind is still functional. You can't touch me cruel world.
