A BOOMER FAMILY TREE GROWS CLOSE TO TOWN

 BUT NOT TOO CLOSE. When people say it’s best to live close to the land, what do they mean? Call it the rural side of life. The closer the better. It’s a perspective fewer and fewer are blessed with. Country living shows you the cycles of life, the cycle of many lives, like a live […]

BOOMER STREET

    Baby boomer gets the message. We’ve heard the message all of our lives. It goes like this:   Move over little dog, the big old dog is moving in.   We were once the little dog and moved over for those who knew better. We did what we were told. The idea is […]

DIVORCE NEW NORMAL: “WAS IT ANOTHER GUY?”

    Older people, a goal baby boomers are moving toward at hyper speed, have heard more joy and heartache than anyone else. We’ve got at least ten thousand hours in each encompassing most every possible outcome.   At recent bar stop I learned a whole new take on divorce for modern times. It came […]

APPLIED GUN VIOLENCE EXPLAINED

  Baby boomers have a unique perspective when it comes to gun violence. Our fathers participated in the most extreme gun violence in world history. The books call it WWII and Korea; the dads went with bad intentions.   Their applied gun violence saved the world from a Nazi future. Along with the horrific acts […]

A TIME LONG AGO AT A HIGH SCHOOL FAR FAR AWAY

What’s so special?   Like later generations staking their claims to, ‘the first digital generation’ or ‘the first paperless generation’ or ‘the first generation raised on video games,’ the generational niche of 1973 is ‘the first modern generation.’   Born of the roaring ’50’s with TV dinners […]

NEW VACUUM SHOWS DIRT, OLD VACUUMS KEEP IT IN THE BAG

Old vaccums didn’t show dirt like new vacuum cleaners. They hid it all in a bag.   And that bag filled up tighter than a old feather pillow compressed by years of thrashing sweat and bad dreams.   Some dirt bags even look like pillows, but don’t substitute. You’d end up resting your head on […]

SHOW UP LATE? APOLOGIZE AND PROMISE TO JUMP

      I’m sorry I’m late.  

A VERY MYSTERIO CHRISTMAS 2017, AND BEYOND

    Part of Mysterio Christmas means identifying with the season.   Nothing says Mysterio Christmas like the right hat.   And the right woman by your side.     Nike, Goddess of Victory is a good choice.   But the most important part of Mysterio Christmas?   Bringing the spirit like you mean it:

CANCER TREATMENT: 5 THINGS I KNEW BEFORE STARTING

    I will submit to the cancer treatment sequence of events that may or may not do what is predicted. Like a lamb to slaughter, I would submit to whatever it took to kill the shit out of hpv16 throat cancer.   In the writing world we all dream of that one ‘YES’ that […]
