    I could make cracks about your ages, but I used to be married to an Eisenhower-era-born baby boomer. I've since considered myself to be a baby-boomer-in-law.

    On a related note, having been accustomed to being a grand-uncle many times over by marriage softened the impact when I became one by biology a couple of years ago.

    I'm reminded of a funny-sad exchange on Frasier several years ago. Frasier is trying to cope with the realization that he's middle-aged.

    "How do you think I feel?" his dad asked. "I have a son who is middle-aged."

    I learned to use a slide rule in high school chemistry class, but practically the next year in college everyone had handheld calculators and slide rules went the way of shoe button hooks. Yes, I was born in the 50's and just retired from my job which is one of the best things about getting older.
