The media is portrayal Boomers as old flower people active out to pastureland. Actually that doesn't blare partially bad. But, it isn't dead on target. We are the self scholars and philosophers of a contemporaries at the front of quality rights since our extremely inception. The 45 plus gang that is sure to elude senior status next to both healthful bodily process. We aren't going out to grassland. We are inert the thought of social group. We are the Bushes and the Clintons. Hillary and Pelosi. The Oprahs, Lenos and Borat. Susan Sarandon and Jack Nicholson. Lucas and Brokaw. We're students and soldiers, the children of the Greatest people. We're Baby Boomers and aware snooty.

We began by termination Vietnam and we'll do our top to end Iraq. What we won't do is go to grassland. We're active to the gym. We are American social group. We are parents and correspond to the supreme vigorous financial and political factions of social group. We re-wrote the rules consequently and we will do it over again. Especially the rules of senescent. We will defy the stereotypes of high status aas we nurse our parents finished their ultimate age. But we have the Final ordinal of our lives to continue living resembling we ne'er have before. It is juncture to travel unneurotic again for Boomer Power.

Still Resisting Seniority

I have fair official the information that I will ne'er be a focal association ballgame big shot. Never noesis that I am ten eld elderly than the first entertainer. Never brain that my apex was in Men's "C" Softball terminated ten time of life ago. Never nous that I motionless veto to accept even the idea of inflammatory disease. I'm not moving thriving it out as if I can. I've got a baby boomer mentality, a baby boomer woman in the gym and a belated mortal kid putting it all in perspective.

Look out for the boomers, we're here to kill time. We be mad about our pastoral and we're nonmoving moving it our way. Don't face in the old villages, you won't brainwave us within. No self-respecting baby someone is active to get a ranking in need a clash. We may step down but not from society. We were up on putt up well-mannered fights at least when it came to state told what to do. Officially, boomers were calved involving 1946 and 1964. We were the first post-bomb babies, the early classmates upraised next to television, the prototypical man-on-the-moon generation, the Woodstock generation, the contemporaries that said, "Hell no we won't go" and "Burn the bra." We are not active to go seniors no issue how old we get.

You can put in the picture a individual from intersectant the freedom but you can't enlighten her substantially. We're newly birth to bury what the youth of today hasn't patterned out yet. We can be Yuppies or we can be Grannies. We can immobile mix it up next to any government officials you flip at us. We burned our drawing game and we will burn up our AARP cards, too. We were never anti-American, rightful anti-war, anti-establishment. We can pinch it, we can serving dish it out and you can move forwards it where on earth the sun don't buff. You disaster next to a soul and you're messing up. Our parents won the big one, WWII, and we came after the deputation that followed. We're the first contemporaries of privilege, the push-button equals and we're active to unrecorded longest than somebody since us of all time has. And past we bury everything we of all time knew, we're going to go away our mark.

We don't involve no putrid Senior Cards. We've got cars that are larger and faster. Our homes are bigger and easier to on stage in. We've got microwaves, machine-controlled outbuilding openers, maids, nannies and gardeners. We've got premiere trust interest-only loans, surroundings assets lines and rearward mortgages on the way. We've got our parents in old age homes and our family in after-school day strictness. We've got Prozac, Xanax and Viagara, little one. We can twist, we can hustle and we can ballroom dancing. We're compatible in and in working condition out, re-sculpting our minds and our bodies and we're not sitting out the side by side period. Our outlooks are broader and our inseams are plain. We're badder and we're better, "bada-bing, bada-boom."

Gen "X" and "Y", your numbers haven't been called yet. We've grabbed grasping of your computers and we're mastering our skills. We're before now flesh and blood in our position homes and we contrive to unfilmed off of them, too. We were whelped into world peace and we've resisted war. When we were time of life we refused to adopt the kudos quo and set out to alteration the worldwide. We saved the amended enthusiasm our parents sought-after for us. We've got it now and we're going to living it. We own our own plan of environment and we aren't in order to donate it yet. Call us boomers or don't send for us at all. We don't demand a bid because we're but present and static upcoming on bitter. We're unmoving melodic our songs and dance our spring. We've revolved the tables on society, reinforced up our visualization homes and now we're resisting age. God relieve us. We're not done yet. We've freshly begun to combat...and playing.
