60 is the new 20: A boomer's guide to aging with grace, dignity, and what's left of your self-respect - Softcover
If you're sick to death of hearing that 40 is the new 30, 50 is the new 40, and so on - that life for the boomers just gets better and better - that growing old means getting fitter, richer, and having more sex - welcome! We are as one, as they say. I think it's time for a light-hearted, tongue-in-cheek look at the boomers by one of their own. I try not to complain about getting older - I mean, consider the alternative, right? But, as Leonard Cohen so aptly put it, "I ache in the places where I used to play." At the risk of sounding like a whiner, most of us aren't as rich as we thought we'd be - well, who is? But still, didn't those old Freedom 55 ads make you think you'd at least own a sailboat by now? Even if, like me, you're terrified of the open sea?? And what about those of us who are still supporting our (practically) grown-up kids? Come to think of it, there's almost no way to talk about these things without sounding like a whiner - but I'll try.
