[Fot] Fwd: 48 Years of Norman Rockwell ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[Jason Ostrowski]

I Don't disagree one bit Bill.
But I try my ass off every day as a father of two beautiful children...to
make sure that my kids will still be able to look at some of those images
and "get it".
The images mean less and less as time goes by and it is partly a shame and
partly the new world we live in..
But we can't give up hope and simply forget "the good ole days".
And that's why family and good parenting and history and guys like you are
more important now than ever before.

We all have to do things every day make sure we don't let the pace of
modern life eclipse the things that are important.
Its your job and my job and everyone's job to keep America Great .
To quote one of those great Norman Rockwell illustration concepts;
"Just when I learned the Dance... They Changed the Music"
 Don't give up hope...
Keep putting those records on for others and teach them about the Good ole
days.
If we work hard at this,
Sure the images change...
But the message and the feelings stay the same.
