What’s this?? What’s this?? Baby Boomers and Seniors being lumped together, for the New England Boomers & Seniors Expo, as if these two very distinct groups are now one and the same?? So it’s come to this at last. Say it ain’t so, marketeers!
I had to go to the dentist Wednesday morning. The office is in a neighboring town. When they were done with me I recalled there’s a CVS somewhere around there, and while walking around looking for it I spotted a small True Value hardware store with bamboo rakes on display out front. Yay! I needed a new rake, and Home Depot and Lowes only carry plastic and metal, so I grabbed one and went inside.
Oh. My. God. The place is a hangout for old, retired guys, futzing around. Most of them look like they’re about 70. They’re the same age as the Beatles! How did they turn into their fathers?? Is this the future that’s fated for all of us Boomer men?? They should be getting stoned and hanging out at a record store, going through bins of used vinyl LPs!
