Ten Things Our Kids Will Never Learn

1. Driving a standard car.
2. Pressing fall leaves between two sheets of waxed paper.
3. Reading a map.
4. How to send things through mail.
5. Writing cursive. Future Archeologists will wonder how we communicated in emotions even though we managed space flight.
6. How to folk dance. This is what was learned in elementary school which taught etiquette and it was fun.
7. Commercial jingles. Remember the lyrics to the Armour Hot Dog Song.
8. How to plant vegetables by the phase of he moon and learn the rhythms of nature.
9. How to balance a checkbook.
10. How to make change in their heads. Now machine tell you what to give back.
