I went into a convenience store at 71st & Garnett in Tulsa. While the manager was waiting on a customer at the counter, one of 2 young guys, 13 or 14, raised his voice and said loudly, Hey! Hey! Hey! How much are these donuts? The manager nicely said, 99 cents plus tax. Then the kid asked, How much is 2 of em? A few minutes later, I was unlocking my car door, and the same kid said loudly to me from the sidewalk, Sir! Sir! How much is 9 plus 10? I looked at him with a funny expression, and said 19. He turned to his companion, told him what I said, then mounted his bicycle and rode off. Dont tell me that the belief, the Dumbing Down of America is a myth. The area I was in is a middle income area. No manners anymore either.
