NW Boomer And Fortune

July 15, 2013 by

As In Tyrell Fortune From Oregon. Misinformed sports fans complain about July. No NBA, just the draft and Summer League. No NFL, just bad news and more bad news about players and guns. Major League Baseball might work since it’s the All-Star Game, but not with a list of players violating drug policy waiting for […]

Boomer Balloons Up

June 29, 2013 by

Without The Usual Weight Swing Do you have an event in your city you used to go to? You probably stopped going when your kids got old enough to go on their own. Now what? That is the baby boomer question, “What do we do now?”

Multi-Gen Boomer Home?

June 28, 2013 by

The Main Fear Of Living Alone A benefit of living with different age groups is the point of view. Both ends squeeze the middle, which is fine if you’re not in the middle. For better and worse, baby boomers sit right in the middle. They are the meat in the generational sammy. The youths grow to […]

Boomer Men Who Nurture

June 3, 2013 by

And The Dogs Who Love Them Tell the truth. You like to nurture. Admit it. You’ve learned how, and you like it. Some say a nurturer is born that way; others say it’s a result of a caring environment. You say the sooner you choose one or the other, the better. That’s not a green light to grow […]

Your Chiseled Core

May 17, 2013 by

or, You Haven’t Seen The Sights In A While? Maybe it’s a boomer thing, or a Portland baby boomer thing, but middle aged men with abs seems a little too much. True story: I’m sitting in the sauna and a guy walks in behind his chiseled abs. He’s no boomer, so his shorts droop. With […]

We Like Them, We Need Them, And So Do You How often do you see a gorgeous woman and think, ‘She must have been a beauty when she was younger?’ Or, ‘If she dyed her hair you’d never know how old she is.’ Baby boomer women get that all the time. They get knocked for over-doing, for under-doing, […]

BOOMER FOUNDATION

April 23, 2013 by

or, HOW MY EIGHTY SIX YEAR OLD MOTHER IN LAW OUT-WALKS YOU You’ve heard the saying “You can’t know someone until you’ve walked in their shoes.” For Portland baby boomers it might be Birkenstocks with socks, which I like. You walk in their footsteps. Or take their path. What’s it mean?

THE AGING RACE

March 2, 2013 by

NO ONE WANTS TO FINISH FIRST As a writer on Baby Boomer culture, one aspect is unavoidable: end of life decisions for us and our parents.

24HR FITNESS vs $20

February 20, 2013 by

BETTING AGAINST THE ARMY AT THE OSU WALL? 1. Why does Oregon State University have a Marine Corps obstacle course near Gill Coliseum? Because OSU serves the Army, Marine, Navy, and Air Force ROTC. 2. Why would one former wrestler with a bad wing bet another he couldn’t climb over the red wall with the big yellow […]
