Listen Carefully as Our Menu Has Recently Changed: Musings of a Baby Boomer Living in a Millennial World

Filled to the brim with humor and relatable musings Roger Loring offers his Baby Boomer perspective on a variety of issues: Passing Laws in Congress: There are over 200 committees in Congress. There are conference committees interim committees joint committees sub-committees and of course each chamber has a float and a prom committee.Growing up in Iowa: Parents in other parts of the country get excited when their child first says mama or dada. In Iowa parental hearts best faster if a childs first word is corn. And they feel greatly blessed if the childs first word is ethanol.Social Media: Mark Zuckerberg came up with the idea for Facebook when he was a student at Harvard proving once and for all that not every student at the prestigious Ivy League college is a dumb jock.Connecting with friends: Instead of texting older people feel sending a note written in cursive is just fine. While younger people may have a bit of an understanding about sending notes they have absolutely no understanding of cursive.Viewing a Picasso Painting: Part of the painting shows various female body parts arranged in such a way that the purpose seems to be to just fill up space. It is not an erotic painting in that-unlike a Playmate of the Month centerfold-it is difficult to recognize the various body parts. I could be completely wrong about all of this and it is a painting of Legos.Running a Marathon: When I sit on my porch and walkers come by I wave and think to myself better you than me but when runners come by I immediately go inside and organize all of my ties by color width and type of stains on each.
