Education though is a big part of it, but some other things too. Music now is as much put together using a computer of some sort as apposed to skill. For any given project in the 40s and 50s you had more hands and heads involved directly contributing to a given peace. There of course is the obvious too, the standard has fallen off too, but that includes the standard of what people will go purchase too, so the consumer is equally to blame too.

Rap, not all, but much of it, is nothing but anger and disrespect. > On Aug 25, 2014, at 8:02 PM, "Josh" <lawdog911@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > >> Well, one of the big assignments is coming up next week.

My thoughts are do it and get it over with, then the rest of the semester I can listen to the presentations. The presentation is 20 minutes long, the longest presentation that I have given since being at the university. well the longest presentation I have given period since starting college. The good thing is the video can be up to 5 minutes long and I found one that was 46 seconds long and then I found another one that was 200 seconds long so 4 minutes and 6 seconds. The videos are funny, but I had to ask Amanda about both of them to make sure what the content was and one to make sure that they were appropriate. Given the audience I believe they will be just fine. The presentation is on parental stress and family stress theory or something to that nature. One video is of penguins, a hand full of baby penguins and then the momma penguin, the penguins are going off and then all of a sudden the momma penguin kicks one of them off into the water *LOL*. After that they all shut up for a second and then started right back into it. The next one is a rap song about parental stress and at one point she says I have all my "bitches and hoes" with me, but when Amanda watched it, it was concluded that she was being politically correct as in the video there were two dogs and then when she said "hoes" it showed her with her garden hoes. So, that was the extent of the videos. I just about kicked the song due to the language, but then when Amanda watched it I decided to keep it. It is now in my professor's inbox waiting for approval. Anyways if you all will, keep me in your prayers regarding this presentation. One of the videos that I am going to paste at the bottom is very much so visual, but Bethann and the other sighted members can enjoy that one and we can all if we choose to enjoy the song. >> >> 46 seconds: Lead into the presentation >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y43dZMf2tEY >> >> 200 Seconds: Finish out the lecture >> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rbBsDbkmYtM >> >> > > * To post to the audio-pals group send e-mail to: > audio-pals@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe via e-mail send mail to: > audio-pals-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and put the word > unsubscribe in the subject line of the e-mail. > To subscribe to this list send mail to: > audio-pals-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and put the word subscribe in > the subject line of the e-mail. > > > * * To post to the audio-pals group send e-mail to: audio-pals@xxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe via e-mail send mail to: audio-pals-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx and put the word unsubscribe in the subject line of the e-mail.
