BBHQ Boomer Essays:

Everybody’s Got a Story!

Our Boomer-In-Charge at BBHQ, Hershel Chicowitz, writes about boomer memories and current events... from a boomer's perspective. He is sometimes funny, sometimes provocative, some-
times a little of each. We hope you get a kick out of our Boomer Essays.

The boomer years was a fabulous time to grow up. We all have terrific experiences and wonderful stories to tell. Indeed, many of the boomers who write to us say they would like some day to put their stories on paper, but.... But what?


NON-MEMBER PREVIEW

   

We get letters... we get lots and lots of letters..... Perhaps one of the biggest kicks we get out of BBHQ comes from the stories we receive from other boomers. (And some of them... from you single women.... whew!!) Our "When I Was a Kid..." section offers short, verbal "pictures" of what it was like... when boomers were kids.

But in this case, a picture cannot tell a story. Only a story can tell a story. The boomer years was a fabulous time to grow up. We all have terrific experiences and wonderful stories to tell. Indeed, many of the boomers who write to us say they would like some day to put their stories on paper, but....

But what?

The BBHQ Feature Album is "Old Friends Live on Stage (Deluxe Edition) (2 CD/1 DVD)," by Simon & Garfunkel. If you were fortunate enough to see them in concert in 2003, I do not have to sell you. The concert was terrific! This album collection includes 55 songs, plus their new recording, "Citizen of the Planet," and one of the songs sung by the Everly Brothers during the concert. The DVD was recorded during their concert in Madison Square Garden in 2003. For any S&G fan, this is a must have! But then, you knew that already, didn't you?  Old Friends Live on Stage (Deluxe Edition) (2 CD/1 DVD)

The BBHQ Feature Book is "The 5000 Year Leap," by W. Cleon Skousen. The title does not adequately identify the content, though the concept of the 5,000 year leap is astounding. The subtitle, Principles of Freedom 101, is much more applicable to the subject. This book carefully and clearly summarizes the thinking of the brilliant founding fathers of our country, the ideas behind the "miracle that changed the world."
