2. … through the tumultuous times ahead.
As Boomers we know a little bit about tumult. We lived through what is, perhaps, the craziest decade in recent history… the 1960’s.
This is the decade that began with “Ozzie & Harriet” and ended with “Laugh In”. …

2. … that you are doing his work for hm? I get it, indicted on 37 counts, it’s “unprecedented” (Thank you Gerald Ford)… but most of the time there’s nothing new. It’s just a re-hash of what we already know.

Did we learn nothing from 2016? He is a media whore and an attention vampire who sucks all the air out of any room he’s in. …
