I was wondering that just yesterday, flames started up in the TSP thread, then I saw a couple of Andy attacks, was going to post "Full moon?" then I had to grab something from the car. It was a full moon.Is there another full moon going on.....??????
Hmmmm. Nowadays 50 seems pretty young to me!
And I agree, we can be grumpy but I always felt we didn't do too much profanity here. ... just my 2¢.
I believe bro @BadExample is the newest number guy. He kept track and gave out a bunch recently-- except for one gate crasher who assigned himself a number....
Is there another full moon going on.....??????
If so, I've been called a lot worse

History.com: This was the beginning of the so-called “baby boom.” In 1947, another 3.8 million babies were born; 3.9 million were born in 1952; and more than 4 million were born every year from 1954 until 1964, when the boom finally tapered off.
I always enjoy reading these charts and am constantly amazed at how accurately many of the attributes that have been bestowed on my group in general hit the mark with me personally. I'm in my early sixties, which seemed seriously old when I was too young to know that it actually wasn't. While I've found that stereotyping is usually a tool of the ignorant or the lazy, understanding the behavioral implications and motivators of these generational characterizations is actually quite useful in leading a team with broad age diversity.
Hopefully, you just pressure stressed the root/nerve and it will calm down with rest. I have some crowns that seem to suffer from the same thing occasionally and not chewing on them for a week or two seems to help. Best of luck!
). The Marines held onto A-4's until past their last order in '78 for the STOL in the jungle. Boomer echo. Echo boomer?
Sorry to hear that, Bro. Brian. Ain't no fun. I've got one out and told to get another out over a year ago.
Well, I'm a '64 model. I say they extended the date for the end of baby boomers because people like me didn't fit into any other class. 64 is almost 20 years after the fact; that's a hell of a lot of celebratory humping. Not that I'm against celebratory humping.
I'll trade your 50 for my 66 anyday my friend! I really meant it. 50 is young nowadays. Enjoy it!Do I resemble that remark?
The informal impression I always got was that the "boomers" were the children who were born after WWII. It always seemed to be peaked around 1955. That's what I grew up with an impression. It may have more than one definition, I'm sure, but that was what I grew up as my impression. I was actually bringing the conversation up not intended for any particular person-- just a conversation in general. That's how we kinda do it around here- discuss and banter. All in good humor...
I didn't feel the lest bit old in my fifties. Now when I turned 60, I thought that was significant birthday with some undeniable age baggage. As I close in on milestones like eligible for Social Security and mandatory Medicare enrollment, even the best denial techniques are falling short.
I think that's a reasonable impression. It's simply that a number of the post WWII families, started by folks who put their lives in hold for the war, likely were delayed a bit by Vets coming back to finish their education, transition back to civilian work and get a little stability before doing the kid thing. That pattern certainly applied to my mom and dad who met during the latter war years at a USO dance, many of their friends followed a similar pattern (not sure about the dancing part though).
Was this something that the loyal Mesa fans will potentially be able to buy at a store near them in the immediate future? Does it have any Walkabout-like qualities with your own special spin on it? Would like it if I stopped asking questions you obviously can't answer?
