The Boomer Room

[Bruce]

Folks,

I have been

wanting to do this for ages. Finally, on a Monday of all days I can't wait any longer.

The Boomer Room

will/would be a special "members only" section of the forum where boomers can meet and discuss boomer issues. Feel

free to ask questions about the board here in this thread, but if you would prefer not to identify yourself publicly

as a boomer, you can email me about getting added to the list.

To become a member of the Boomer Room forum,

you would have to:
Be 40ish or beyond (and prove it somehow)
Be a Love Scent customer (mainly for

identification purposes)

Now... the kind of topics that pop into my mind when I think about the Boomer Room

are:
Parenting issues
Marriage issues
Health/anti-aging issues

Stuff like that, but those are just a

few things that come to mind at the moment.

Anyway, enough for now. Let me know if there is

interest.

[DumLuc]

It's got my vote.

[Donovan]

How about a Hijacker's room for

those who like to take over informative threads with one liner BS back and forth?

[Mtnjim]

Sounds good to me. I make it by 16

years (what the heck, I'm an old fart).

[belgareth]

I like it.

There are two

hijacker forums. Open discussion and humor.

[Holmes]

I feel 40ish or beyond.

Does that count?

[Bruce]

Holmes, maybe we can make you an

honorary member.

[SyraBrian]

Finally, a place on the 'net

where we can discuss David Wells, Boomer Esiasion and ESPN's Chris Berman!

[Watcher]

Oh im under 40 - well good idea

regardless bruce.

[Gegogi]

Maybe call it:

Over the

hill gang
Forehead enhanced only
Midlife Challenged
Hippies 'n Yuppies
Never too late
Autumn

reflections
Life begins at 40

[belgareth]

Maybe call it:



Over the hill gang
Forehead enhanced only
Midlife Challenged
Hippies 'n Yuppies

That about

describes it

Who?






Bruce: Will an AARP membership number do? (Discounts! Discounts! Discounts!)

[tim929]

If 38 is close enough then sign

me up!Altho...I have never been accused of having an oppinion or anything like that.

[satyrboy]

40ish? Late 30's count?

[Mtnjim]

I think one of the requirements

would be that you can't write like:

"U r 2 young"

I mean, the synapses are already gone, do we have to

work that hard to read the posts??

Now get off my lawn you young wipper snapper!!

[Bruce]

MJim, Writing like that is clearly

grounds for dismissal from the club.

Yeah, "40ish" meaning "if you are in your late 30s and really want to

get in that bad well OK". Actually, if you have a wife and 3 kids, you should get in at any age. :-)

[DCW]

Damn, now everyone will know my real

age.
Well I guess you can't lie forever.

[Holmes]

Holmes, maybe we can

make you an honorary member.

That would be an honor!

Hi Bruce,


I like the

input of the "young unes", it makes for funny reads sometimes. But you've been wanting to do this for ages, so

hey.... we should do it. Are you sure the "young unes" aren't going to feel "offended"?

Another fun thing I

came across on another forum is that they had a chat feature. They would then have virtual get-togethers on a

planned-ahead day/time. But conversations tend to be very superficial in a setting like that, so maybe it is not the

cup of tea of this crowd?
Now I'm off to Google for Illya Kuryakin!

[DrSmellThis]

Me too! I found this page:

GFI, Bruce! (That's 4U, Mountain Jim!)

Baby Boomers don't like to just get into gang fights,
they like

flowers and music and white girls named Debbie too.

Baby Boomers are named Chata and Chella and Chima
and have

a son in law named jeff.

Baby Boomers don't like to get up early in the morning
but they have to so they do it

real slow.

Baby Boomers love education so they go to night school
and they take spanish and get a B.

Baby

Boomers love their Nana's and their Nono's and their
Nena's and their Neno's........ Nano Nano Nena Nono!



Baby Boomers don't like to go to the movies where the
dude has to wear contact lenses to make his blue eyes

brown
cause don't it make my brown eyes blue.....

[a.k.a.]

Why does it have to be an exclusive

club? I’m sure the younger generations have already figured out we don’t know a damn thing.

So, have

you seen him lately? He is "Duckie" on "Navy NCIS".
Quite a different story, but an interesting aside; "Duckie"

was asked by one of the other characters what he looked like when he was younger and he answered "Illya Kuryakin",

to which the other character asked "who?".

By the way, Bruce. I was just playing the "grumpy old

codger" to make sure I get into the club.

[CptKipling]

I'm not offended, I think

it's a great idea as long as it doesn't detract from good discussion in other forums.

You got me

crying U.N.C.L.E. on that one...


But it's better than wanting to be Pinky Lee or Soupy Sales I

suppose... or owning a talking horse...

[Michael909]

I really have to

distance my self from the really REALLY bad puns

[BDC_Concepts]

I'd volunteer, even though

as a "youngin", to help contribute in the health/anti ageing part of the new forum section. After all, that is what

BDC Concepts does on the side .
