Old people get nostalgic, which is true. But I missed the 90's since the early 2000's, when I literally just got into high school. I sensed my generation got nostalgic at a extremely early age. Hell, my younger brother is 18 and he misses the 90's and he was still a kid when they ended.
No one really missed the 80's till the 2000's. 90's were being missed since the 2000's start. (Proof is just how quick I love the 90's came out and trivial pursuit 90's edition came out right around we went into Iraq in 2003) 2000's has been one problem after another, from the controversy of the Election, 9/11, being stuck in Afghanistan and Iraq, enormous natural disasters including Katrina and the worst economic crash since the depressing. Then you have technology penetrating every aspect of our lives possible, there really is no existing safe havens left.
We now have a massive Oil spill and the recent coal mine accident. A President who has not lived up to almost any hype that was built around him(at least yet.) And it doesn't help morale when popular cultural icons seem to be dieing left and right.
I bet people in the 30's and early 40's were quick to start missing the 20's. Sure, booze were tougher to get legally and you had the gangsters (which organized crime actually gave the 20's the lowest violent crime rate in American history. Since the Gangs only aimed for cops and each other. They wanted public favor on their side.) But it was great time to live compare to the coming disasters that would happen in the next decade and half.
My grandma actually dated Clint Eastwood in college... she wanted to get with his friend and thought that he would be a no body actor for the rest of his life.
She guessed wrong.
<I>They dont have the ability to aim at the driver. The gun mounts have stops to prevent it from happening. But that doesnt mean you cant shoot your fellow man in the rest of the convoy.</i>
Could be a home made mount since it is a 3rd world country. Just a gun that was mounted onto the back of a truck with a swivel joint at the top.
