George Washington Cartoon Biography Video for the 4th of July



Here is an interesting way to help the educational or lack of education amongst the citizens of these United States.  If it takes comic book stories, cartoons, videos, books, e-books, pictures, or what have you, we will at least try to help out the serious lack of education about the history of our nation on our sites.  George Washington Biography in cartoon form, when many of our adults throughout this country have long forgotten or were taught very little about our American History, this is at least a way to learn something about it.

We've Been Whining About ‘Modern’ Life for Over 100 Years

English: Last panel of the xkcd webcomic "...
English: Last panel of the xkcd webcomic "Philosophy". On the xkcd site, it displays with the tooltip "It's like the squirt bottle we use with the cat." (Photo credit: Wikipedia)
Do you think, thanks to technology, that modern life moves too fast? That email is too fast and frequent, overwhelming the senses and cheapening our correspondence? Or that we've forgotten how to relax (especially in cities) and that we spend too much “family time” staring into our own personal devices, rather than talking or going on long walks?
If so, you’re not alone. In fact, as cartoonist Randall Munroe demonstrates in the comic series xkcd, we've been complaining about the exact same stuff for more than 100 years. Munroe assembled a series of excerpts dating back to 1871 in which authors of the time bemoaned the pace of modern life, pined for days gone by and lamented the decline of human social interaction. 
See below:


What's old is new. Has "modern life" ever not been a pain to the generation living through it?

Free Charlie Chan Comic Book



Free download from our Slideshare site.  Charlie Chan comic book.  For those who remember when comic books only cost 10 cents each.  This is sure to bring back a lot of memories for many people.  For others, it's a chance to get acquainted with some old time material that is rather entertaining.  Back in the 1930's through the 1950's, Charlie Chan mysteries reached a wide range of audiences through radio broadcast shows, movies and later, TV.  There were a series of books and as you can see, comic books as well.

  Entertainment has dramatically changed throughout the years, so this can easily be considered an historical piece.  This comic also contains original advertising of the period which are rather unique and fun to read in and of themselves.  So have fun with this piece.
