I was agreeing with you but took it a bit further as to me it is in no way a sympathy vote. The whole aspect of Hollywood and the knowledge which this chappie has, is fascinating, he could tell many a tale. In the day there wasnt such things as mobiles and other gadgets, we depended on the cinemas and dance halls for our entertainment. We also queved outside to get autographs when there were public appearances.

Many viewers of BB, believe it or not, are of the older generations, it isnt a programme just for the young. I myself have enjoyed interacting and getting to know the younger generation but it has come to the stage now, where I do not like what I see and hear. I personally cannot learn anything from the overall playground actions, the snide remarks behind an older persons back. The ageism stinks.

There is a lovely poem written by someone about an elderly person sitting in a chair and the poem goes on to say "Behind these eyes I am still there" words to that effect. Consideration of all is the game for if we do not consider the elderly how can the young expect to be considered? Many are at that stage where they need empathy.

Age is just a number, the spirit grows and evolves from the day we are born. If we halt it for a moment there will come a time when we can catch up and then understand but the door has to be opened first otherwise it stays static in the school playground.
