If you live in the northeastern part of the United States, next month, against all odds, you will not be thinking about Donald Trump, terrorism, or the possibility of needing a stronger antiperspirant. Every single brain cell you still posses will be consumed with sheer terror at what is happening on your very doorstep. […]

Life in the Boomer Lane would like to go on record as saying that she is no fan of Starbucks. She finds the coffee bitter, over-brewed, and served too hot. However, she does understand that most True Americans do not share her sentiments, since she knows they spend most of their waking hours standing in […]

Hillary Adopts Bill’s Alien Love Child? Elvis-Worshipping Tribe Found in Jungle? Brangelina Double Sex Change Surgery? GOP Considers Bigfoot Nomination? Severed […]

As brilliant and hilarious as Life in the Boomer lane’s posts may be, she never repeats subject matter within a few months. She is making an exception here. Back in November, she found out about One Day University, and attended one of their all-day sessions in Washington, DC . This year’s schedule is out now, […]

Throughout the history of the planet, most species have evolved in a predictable manner. The ones who avoided extinction became more adept at survival, either through brute force or through domestication. Only cats and Republicans refused to adapt, and both are currently suffering the consequences. We shall leave the Republicans to their own devices, while […]

China has been accused of a lot of bad things, lately. Donald Trump believes the Chinese started climate change. The recent discovery that Lumber Liquidators has been selling cacinogenic wood flooring from China has been all over the news. Added to that is carcinogenic drywall being sold throughout the US.
