I was thinking about the Boomer/GenX thing last night, too, and also about how GenY has almost completely embraced Obama and tried to make him their own. (He's GenX's, goddammit. Get offa my lawn.)
Which, I have nothing pithy, just a realization that my generation is growing up and leading and OMGWTF we're adults now??
Doesn't Palin have to donate all her clothes and such now since they are no longer being used for the campaign?
Hey Miss Root Canal adult. How are you feeling today?
The generational divisions crack me up a bit since my Dad is the Greatest Generation and I am firmly planted in Generation X, 3 generations later.

I think so. Supposedly, Republican operatives have been dispatched to "retrieve" some of the clothes....

The infection that prompted all of this is still here. This blows. I'm calling my (young, hot) endodontist to tell him that and see what he thinks. (Srsly, I think he's younger than me. Again, OMGWTF I'm old.)

possibly worst detail ever.
My youngest uncle is a month younger than Obama and I always thought of him as being at the tail end of the Boomer generation. But I think mostly because he likes the Grateful Dead (to counter that he also is a big Clash fan which makes him seem to be more a part of my generation to me).

They have to figure out just what she has. Apparently, the $150K didn't include the 40K she spent on stuff for Todd, and there were various other purchases on scattered credit cards.

I think the Dead goes across generational lines. I know a lot of the people in my class loved the Dead. Hell, our Homecoming Queen our senior year wore Birks and flowers in her hair to coronation.
Of course, we were all unreconstructed stoner hippies in response to the moose-hunting Palins in our midst, so there's that.
