Aging Hipsters - Baby Boomers Rock On
The Baby Boomers are a demographically important group without a doubt. One Web site has pulled together information relevant to what they call the “aging hipsters,” in a interesting and informative way.
Aging Hipsters covers news, health, music, politics, humor and has a discussion board for people to come by and get to know each other. They bring up difficult issues and discuss them in a way that is helpful for the reader. But they aren’t above getting a laugh at themselves and the rest of us Boomers, through their content and information.
I particularly liked their, “Who do you want to turn 60 with?” That is still a decade away (you notice, how quickly we spring to let you know how young we all still are?) but I am taking lessons. I also enjoyed their feature on the 50 best jobs for Boomers; I like mine so any editors reading this, please remember this is advice for others! Not me.
They have a button on the right side to enlarge the text **humming to myself discreetly because I can’t imagine needing that *cough* but its nice to know it is there for others!*, and an option to open links in a new window if you prefer. It is just a very, cool? (hey I can say that again!) site.
And you can even use the word “groovy” and not get laughed at. What more could you possibly want?
Who Do You Want To Turn 60 With?
The name of the poem is “Boat,” and it is by Deborah Digges. I, of course, had to research her a bit and I have all of her books on my wishlist! This is the kind of poet that makes you want to go back to college and pick up another degree - this time in literature.
