"I want to talk about ME!"
Even through I was born in the peak year of the Baby Boom (1957), I'm sick of listening to so many self-centered whinners who think the world revolves around them. I can only imagine how sick the Gen Xers and others must be sick of the Boomers.
Of all the things I've ever done, one of my greatest joys in life has been holding and playing with my grandchildren. One of my greatest disappointments is that they live so far away that we only get to see them about once a year. I can only hope that my wife and I can find a way to be a good influence on the grandkids (another grandson due in June!). We very much want to be a part of their lives. Logistically, that's a challenge but we'll do what we can.
