But hey, Albany's getting a Costco. Small victories. When I was growing up, going to Albany was a really big deal in that it meant we were going to Colonie Center. This meant Orange Julius and dinner at some steakhouse attached to the mall which, in my foggy imagination is a Texas chop house but in reality was probably a step up from Beefsteak Charlies.

Wacka Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Lucky. My dad smoked cigarettes from 15 to 34. Switched to cigars and pipes until 53 when he had a heart attack. Quit then but died at 60 from lung cancer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artful Dodger Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 (edited) I don't know if they're overrated, but it's very instructive to imagine their grandkids trying to make it through a real depression and fight in a real world war.

Chef Jim Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 A couple years ago I asked my mother who is 94 and still chugging away was she at all worried that the Nazis were going to roll in at anytime and take over. She said no. Her biggest worry was polio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Adams Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) Kick the Greatest Gen all you want, but no generation could be more annoying than the Boomers (sorry Chef Jim). All they do is talk about themselves as a generation and how great they are... Ugh. STFU already. Edited January 13, 2020 by John Adams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got a reputation for being apathetic, but it's more like we're live and let live. Boomers, please leave us alone. Millenials, please stop whining.
