Sex and the Sixty (Year Old) Pt4
May 25, 2010
When Susan arranges her first meetings with men, she is sometimes a bit too intentional about making sure she meets the right person. This is because she once went to the infamous bagel place and immediately saw a good looking man sitting at one of the tables. As he fit the description of who she was […]
Sex and the Sixty (Year Old) Pt2
May 23, 2010
For those skeptics who might be thinking that my friend Susan’s poor results are because she hasn’t put enough of an effort into online dating, rest assured that she has been on most internet dating sites since the very first one (CaveMatch.com). She has only excluded the ones that will result in the FBI confiscating […]
Gardening 101 (Part 1)
May 18, 2010
It’s that Scary Time again: time to be thinking about how Life in the Boomer Lane should be thinking about a vegetable garden. Or about Planting Something. In fact, Anything.

This is really handy, since, unless 100 of the 105 pages of […]
Keeping Up With Anything (even the Kardashians)
May 16, 2010
I had lunch today with my good friend Ellen. Ellen, like some People of a Certain Age, is slightly behind the curve on pop culture and pop technology. I sort of suspected this when she commented on one of my recent columns by asking, “Who is Heidi Montag?” The truth is, Heidi stars in a […]
Life in the Boomer Lane
April 20, 2010
Ah, about me. I was born in 1947, during the heady, post war years. The years when the easiest way to deal with the lives that were taken during the war was to create new ones. That makes me a Boomer. Class of ’69 to be exact. The year I entered Penn State, there were […]

I feel compelled to say something about three pretty darn exciting TV events that have occurred during the past week. If you don’t watch the shows I talk about and don’t care, it doesn’t matter. You have already clicked onto this blog, and I have also just written the word “renumeration” for the first time ever. […]
