CHAPTER SIX
BABY BOOMERS: WE CAME, WE SAW, WE FORGOT WHY?
In this chapter in Thou Shalt Not Whine, I've decided to share my thoughts and prayers for all the Baby Boomers.
However, technically, I’m not a Baby Boomer since I was born shortly before the boom.
So I’m the prototype.
The Baby Boomers were the largest, loudest, and most demanding generation in American history.
They didn’t simply enter the world.
They arrived as a focus group.
Boomers changed everything.
Music.
Politics.
Marriage.
Divorce.
Parenting.
Retirement.

Age is an issue of mind over matter.
If you don’t mind, it doesn’t matter.
