Living Your Life in 8 Second Intervals
Back in 2014, when Life in the Boomer Lane wrote her last post on aging and height loss, the world was a much more innocent place, chiefly because the presidential primaries had not yet begun and because LBL was still over 5′ tall. In the interim, both American politics and LBL’s height have dipped to […]
Five Ways to Add Storage Space to Any Room
April 20, 2016
Life in the Boomer Lane has been obsessed, recently, with the growing phenomenon of tiny houses. She collects tiny houses on her pinterest page. She debates floor plans of tiny houses. She fantasizes about living in a tiny house, facing the ocean. So it was entirely appropriate that Debra Lewis, a reader of […]
What 70 Means
April 1, 2016
For thousands of years, people didn’t know what it meant to be 70-years-old. Large, surly animals, rotted teeth, and the plague were all standing by to end life well before that magic number. If you are inclined to believe the bible, a man named Methuselah lived 969 years. Meth, as he was affectionately called, […]
A Short Conversation Between Roger Stone and The National Enquirer

A close friend of Life in the Boomer Lane is now teaching an AARP refresher course for senior drivers.

How to Maintain Healthy Relationships With Your Significant Other
March 7, 2016

March 2, 2016
Lest you thought that New Hampshire was only known for primaries and the Pitco Frialator, you would be wrong, especially this year. With the exit of the politicians, media, pizza delivery people, and professional make up artists from the state on February 9, New Hampshire did not revert to its usual no-news condition. New Hampshire has […]
Dumb, Dumber, Dumbest
February 29, 2016
Life in the Boomer Lane watched a comedy clip recently, in which a reporter (fake) attended a Trump rally (real). First, he spoke to some of the people in the parking lot, waiting to go into the rally. He asked one young man how Trump was going to defeat ISIS. The answer was “Bomb […]
