Have you ever wondered what the future holds for us as a species?

While driving to work I pass a service station which is over the road from a high school. If I’m going past at about 8.30am I’ll usually see a group of students waiting at the traffic light crossing, all drinking an energy drink of some sort. Whole groups of kids, all slamming down an energy drink of some sort, and not just the small can’s, massive can’s of Mother or V or even the huge Red Bull can. I don’t know about you, but when I went to school, the only energy drinks I knew of were Coke and red cordial, and for some reason we never drank coke in the morning. (The breakfast coke revolution clearly came later for me.) These days of course it’s perfectly acceptable for adults to want (need) multiple shot coffee’s before they can function correctly in the morning. You can’t miss a flock of coworkers going past the coffee machine on the way to yet another soul draining meeting. cough I mean constructive collaboration session. Are we simply just training out kids to act this way at a younger age than previously, or was it simply that I grew up out in the country?

I should post more often. Randomness isn’t all bad.
