BABY BOOMER FOOT ISSUES SOLVED

Do you have Baby Boomer Foot Issues? Yesterday I jammed my pained tootsie into about twenty shoes. The pain comes with plantar fasciitis, which is supposed to be a heel thing, but got my middle toe instead. I blame a famous shoe brand for bending my foot the wrong direction, then myself for thinking the […]

If elderly people depend on you, you’re in the Care Age. Ages come in different names defined by the dominant materials like the Stone Age, Bronze Age, Iron Age. Epochs and eras all have names. If you find artifacts made in America before the explorers got here, they’re called Pre-contact, as if everything after early […]

BULLIES AND BITCHES: BORN THAT WAY?

Genetics no excuse for bullies and bitches. Some time ago in the Baby Boomer fog of age, like grade school in the mid-60’s at Bangor Elementary, voted the cool school by all former Bearcats, bullies and bitches came in all shapes and sizes. Turns out the time of day also mattered for them. A kid […]

BASEBALL, BEER, FIREWORKS, BOOMERPDX STYLE

In a search for holiday ideas, there’s BoomerPdx Style. Who drank a beer yesterday? Anyone? Super Patriot in their flag focused ensemble leads a toast. Slinky character in a DD214 t-shirt cheers him on. Everyone else joins in. If that’s your Fourth of July, you did it right. If it didn’t go that way, take […]

MIDSUMMER NIGHT’S SUSHI

When a birthday dinner turns to Shakespeare and Midsummer Night’s sushi. Imagine if you will a birthday dinner, but not just a regular birthday dinner for a regular birthday. Instead, it’s a milestone birthday dinner, a biggie, so you plan and time and schedule and connect. Because it is an older birthday, one idea is […]

CROSSING THE BOOMER LINE

You won’t see the boomer line until it’s too late. One day runs to another, week to week, year to year, until you look around and wonder, “What happened?” You made plans, you read books, you knew what you were doing, but it still fell apart and you’re left to pick up the pieces. Alone. […]

LUMINEERS PLAY PORTLAND

Once you’ve seen a Lumineers concert your baby boomer brain starts working. It might happen with others, too. If so, leave a comment. Are the players in Lumineers channeling their inner Grateful Dead? Phish? Who do they sound like? At some point all bands share a common note, a thread of recognition. Then they played […]

BABY BOOMER ANTHOLOGY, A LIFE IN COMMON

Every family has a man with so much backbone you’d think he has two of them. Such a man might have been injured on the job and took up another line of work. Maybe that man was a logger who broke his back in the woods and took up ranching. His biggest regret was missing […]

FUKUSHIMA FEVER OR BEER

That red line aiming for Oregon hit me with a wave of Fukushima Fever. If you don’t live on the Oregon coast, you drive to the Oregon coast. That’s how it works. If you don’t like the drive, you move there. I grew up on the Oregon coast so every time I go to the […]
