Another unfinished sentence I created for my notebook, ROAM (Remnants Of Abstract Minds), and the responses it elicited in 1993:
Classic words from Bob Dylan: "Something's going on, but you don't know what it is, do you, Mr. Jones?" In modern terms, these lyrics could apply to...
...the state of the United States and the type of people we have leading our country. The people who truly have the minds to save our country are too smart to take the abuse that goes along with running for office, so we get stuck with the power-hungry idiots. (Joe S.)
...our generation. That is to say, the baby boomers are still calling the shots to the puzzlement of all other generations in this country. We have met the befuddled, obscure, and out-of-date, and they are us. So sad. But, hey, how 'bout that Zeppelin box set? (Michael M.)
...my elementary school principal--remember, he's your "pal"--Mr. Jones. He was only there for two years, and though I never met him--can't even remember seeing the guy--he did yell at my older brother, Jeff, which truly indicates how clueless Mr. Jones was. After all, Jeff is a cool guy. (Bob D.)
...most of the men in my life. (Laura W.)
...Ditto...I mean, uh, well, yeah. (Liz F.)
