Trump enters a room and greets Michael Cohen. Mike, you called. I’m here.  Get busy and explain.  I’m behind on my Tweets.  Comey is making me work overtime.  Should I say he should go to prison or be lynched?  Or should I just say “Lock him up!” It worked before, right?   I just have to […]

Life in the Boomer Lane, taking a short break from tracking POTUS’ latest antics involving declaring war on Russia and giving hush money to porn stars, took a friend out for a gala birthday celebration.

This week, Life in the Boomer Lane took a break from tracking our President’s favorite pastime: using his prodigious intellectual abilities to lure porn stars and Playboy centerfolds who reminded him of his daughter, into his gold-encrusted bed.  Instead, she caught the first episode of a British series, “Age Gap Love” which showed real people […]

I found out about a month ago that a woman, J,  who, throughout most of high school and college, was my best friend, was on Hospice care in a nursing home outside of Philadelphia. She was in the final stages of emphysema. Doctors couldn’t even say if she would make it to her birthday at […]

In the interest of edification, enlightenment and entertainment, if not exorcism,  Life in the Boomer Lane has arranged for a three-way Facetime interview with Stormy Daniels, Anatastia Vashukevich, and herself.  And so, with no further fanfare, let us begin: LBL: Ms Vashukevich, may I call you Anastasia?  Thanks so much for agreeing to this interview.

It’s a fact of life that, many decades after small children stop taking daily naps, they again pick up the habit.  While Life in the Boomer Lane has taken maybe a handful of naps in her entire adult life, Now Husband and many of LBL’s friends partake, most on a daily basis. She is sure […]
