It's got my vote.
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.

How about a Hijacker's room for
those who like to take over informative threads with one liner BS back and forth?
Sounds good to me. I make it by 16
years (what the heck, I'm an old fart).

I like it.
There are two
hijacker forums. Open discussion and humor.
To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

Does that count?

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

If 38 is close enough then sign
me up!Altho...I have never been accused of having an oppinion or anything like that.
40ish? Late 30's count?
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!!

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. :-)

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!
Me too! I found this page:

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.
Give truth a chance.
Good point!Originally Posted by a.k.a.

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.

I'm not offended, I think
it's a great idea as long as it doesn't detract from good discussion in other forums.

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 .
