F-f-fifty Something: No Matter Who
http://bernie-f-f-fiftysomething.blogspot.com/2009/01/no-matter-who.html
A Baby Boomer comments on the Boomer life and other things. Sunday, January 18, 2009. No matter who you voted for and no matter what you think about the incoming or outgoing Presidents, you should celebrate the Inauguration on Tuesday. Bruce Springsteen is one of many performers playing on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial this afternoon. I happened to be there yesterday when he was rehearsing with a choir:. Visit my photo blog. And to be around all of those great musicians! Maryland, United States.

F-f-fifty Something: He Said WHAT?
http://bernie-f-f-fiftysomething.blogspot.com/2009/01/he-said-what.html
A Baby Boomer comments on the Boomer life and other things. Monday, January 05, 2009. There is only one thing I will miss about our soon-to-be-former President: his mangling of the American English language. People who have worked closely with him claim that in private, he is disciplined, inquisitive and forceful in his leadership style. His public persona contradicts that claim. Here are a few examples from a story on the AOL site:. Location: Sofia, Bulgaria Date: June 11, 2007. Location: Campaign rally...

F-f-fifty Something: Quick Reflexes or Experience?
http://bernie-f-f-fiftysomething.blogspot.com/2009/01/quick-reflexes-or-experience.html
A Baby Boomer comments on the Boomer life and other things. Saturday, January 17, 2009. Quick Reflexes or Experience? So let's say you're a passenger in an airliner that just got struck by a flock of birds. The birds were sucked into both jet engines, causing them to stop, and you know that an airliner can't really glide so you also know a crash is probably less than a minute away. Experience wins this round! Tell me why airline pilots have to retire at age 60. Visit Rhea's Boomer Chronicles. What Do Dan...

F-f-fifty Something: Restless and Moving
http://bernie-f-f-fiftysomething.blogspot.com/2009/02/restless-and-moving.html
A Baby Boomer comments on the Boomer life and other things. Saturday, February 14, 2009. In just under one month, this blog, my first, will reach its third anniversary. I began by making fun of my age:. I am trying to get comfortable with saying f-f-fifty f-f … (this is the only time I stutter). Like many boomers my age, I don’t look, act or feel like I’m (the number would go here if I were to say it). The few co-workers who know the number can’t believe it. I can’t believe. 8211; thanks again). But I...

F-f-fifty Something: Opinionated Journalist and Quick Reflexes
http://bernie-f-f-fiftysomething.blogspot.com/2008/12/opinionated-journalist-and-quick.html
A Baby Boomer comments on the Boomer life and other things. Sunday, December 14, 2008. Opinionated Journalist and Quick Reflexes. The White House Press Room can be quite contentious at times, but it's nothing compared to this scene in Iraq today. I bet no American journalist ever threw shoes at a U.S. President. Of course a few questions and observations come to mind:. Some people have probably dreamed about throwing something at him. Bush has some damn good reflexes. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

F-f-fifty Something: Fragmentation in Boomerville
http://bernie-f-f-fiftysomething.blogspot.com/2009/01/fragmentation-in-boomerville.html
A Baby Boomer comments on the Boomer life and other things. Wednesday, January 28, 2009. The commonly accepted birth year range for Baby Boomers is 1946 – 1964. Or so I thought. Even though someone born in 1946 (who is turning 63 years old this year) might not have much in common with someone born in 1964 (who is turning 45 this year), both were considered Boomers. I also believed that Generation X came next, starting with those born in 1965 (who are turning 44 this year). If the new president lives up t...

F-f-fifty Something: Eggplant, Fat Chance and the Neutral Ground
http://bernie-f-f-fiftysomething.blogspot.com/2009/01/eggplant-fat-chance-and-neutral-ground.html
A Baby Boomer comments on the Boomer life and other things. Saturday, January 31, 2009. Eggplant, Fat Chance and the Neutral Ground. If you need proof that English is a difficult language for immigrants to learn, read the next few lines. We take these contradictions for granted, but try to explain them to an ESL student. There is no egg in eggplant or ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren't invented in England or French fries in France. Or a ‘bubbler’? OK, time to g...

F-f-fifty Something: Space: the Final Frontier … and Suburb
http://bernie-f-f-fiftysomething.blogspot.com/2009/01/space-final-frontier-and-suburb.html
A Baby Boomer comments on the Boomer life and other things. Saturday, January 03, 2009. Space: the Final Frontier … and Suburb. Colonizing the moon was supposed to be the next step. A working environment there would serve as a place for scientific research and a jumping off point for further space exploration and, of course, real estate development. Those dreams seemed inevitable then, impossible now. I haven’t read it yet, but I plan to. The author has a background in nuclear engineering, aero...LetR...
