The sense of entitlement has to come from somewhere … tv, school teachers, advertising, santa claus etc. Are blogs the antidote? PS. thanks for the inking tips etc.

That clip describes quite a few people I know. They think they deserve to have everything, without giving something in return, and if something they have doesn’t work, its like their life has gone completely wrong or something. So many people, especially kids, want the latest and greatest stuff, and they don’t want to work for it themselves. I hate to say it, but there seems to be a lot of people out thewre that, without all their gadgets and toys, are dumber than a brick….

I noticed this alot while giving away free caricatures at the Penguin games. The younger kids get impatient when they have to sit for all of four minutes to get their drawing done. They are all fidgety after a few seconds wonder why it’s not done yet. Their parents will have to explain to them it’s not a digital photo. I’m sure my parent thought we were a spoiled generation too. When I was watching TV during the day on weekend, my Dad would always tell me to go outside, play and I can’t come back inside until I was sweaty and my clothes were dirty. Not a bad standard.

A real gem, Tom. I particularly like the part about flying. Maybe I’m showing my age, but whenever I fly (and I fly a lot, especially between Minneapolis and Los Angeles), I want a window seat. I love to watch take-offs and landing, to see areas I know from the air. Oh, there’s the Mendota Bridge and St. Peters! or, we’re coming in over Hollywood Park, look how green it is . . . and to see what we’re flying over, wow, there’s Los Vegas. I guess I never have lost that feel that it’s “magic”.
