The Train to Nowhere Except Trouble
February 27, 2023

On February 3, a 150-car train transporting 20 cars that contained hazardous substances, when 38 cars derailed about 50 miles northwest of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in a town called East Palestine, Ohio (population 5000.) Days after the crash, officials burned off chemicals carried by the train in an effort to avoid a potential explosion. That fire […]

Sidney, Say it Ain’t So

Even preschoolers know that information disseminated among humans can become so corrupted so as to emerge as another entity entirely. Preschoolers call this phenomenon “Whisper Down the Lane.” Adults engage in that same phenomenon. To them, it’s called conservative talk media. Depending on which side of the fence one’s posterior currently rests, one either sees […]

While we have been dealing with the usual array of grotesque political and environmental events, and, while the GOP has started to shoot presidential wannabees out of its maw to challenge the Big Guy, Life in the Boomer Lane has been aware of something brewing that is even more insidious: ChatGPT. For those of you […]

Winning, Always Winning. Even When Losing.

Life in the Boomer Lane must apologize to Loyal Readers. She saw the up-to-the-second headline about Nikki Haley throwing her hat into the wrestling ring with Donald J. This needs a blog post, for sure, but LBL had already written the following post. And, blame her for what you will, but she has never been […]

Online vs Standing in Line
January 30, 2023
by Life in the Boomer Lane
Life in the Boomer Lane has noticed that, the more sophisticated our society becomes, the more removed actual humans can be from that sophistication. Science is available for all, at any time, compliments of Mr/Ms/Whatever Internet. Yet, there are humans who staunchly believe that JFK Jr is not only deceased, but he is secretly Trump’s […]

Here, Little Doc
January 25, 2023
by Life in the Boomer Lane
It now seems that the classified and top secret docs that were found at Mar-a-lago were only the tip of the iceberg. Like glitter and Life in the Boomer Lane’s hair, once released, they have the ability to be everywhere at once. First, it was the White House, then Biden’s personal home. Now they have […]

A lot has been written about Congressman and Newly-Crowned Member of the House Committee on Small Business and the Committee on Science, Space, and Technology. The information is coming in at an alarming rate. What’s a poor schmuck to believe? In a service to Loyal Readers, Life in the Boomer Lane arranged for a private interview […]

The Race to Cure Aging
January 5, 2023
by Life in the Boomer Lane
Life in the Boomer Lane occasionally ignores XWAP’s (Ex and Wanna Be Again POTUS) inane and dangerous entries onto Truth Social, the never-ending votes going nowhere in an attempt to find a new Speaker of the House, and reading about the 435th sub-variant of Covid, to notice that she is aging. Like you, she doesn’t […]
How the World Could Have Been Saved
December 28, 2022
by Life in the Boomer Lane
With only a few days left of 2022, and, with seemingly nothing more that Ex-and-Wannabe-Again-POTUS (XWAP)could possibly say to rivet Life in the Boomer Lane’s attention, he has gone and done it again. His Christmas Eve Rant was an eye opener, not because he trashed the usual suspects, while glorifying himself, but because he has […]

Life in the Boomer Lane has been convinced for some time that SNL and Whatever-Those-People-Are-in-the-GOP, are in cahoots with each other. The WTPAGOP, with SNL’s help come up with whatever lunacy they come up with and then SNL makes fun of it on the show. They all profit from this by both amusing and horrifying […]
