Boomer Time In Australia, Too!

September 1, 2005 by Nandini Seshadri
Filed under: General, Vacations 

It seems Australians are just as obsessed with the Baby Boomer generation as we are, and spend just as many hours analyzing, celebrating and appreciating the… ah… impact of this generation on our way of life.

Found on the Sydney Morning Herald ; excerpt:

Last century, when boomers were young, anyone in their 50s was considered old. It was a time to settle in with a cup of tea and a scotch finger biscuit and wait to die. These days, a person in their 50s is just as likely as their children to use both the internet and SMS, wear jeans, work out, drink Coke, smoke pot, and use words like cool.
