I'm 56 too. You know what I think it's happening with us ?
I believe the late 70's, all the 80's and maybe the early 90's were so intense and cool that everything sucks under our sight now. I mean everything, what they eat, the way they dress, their music,....all.

I think what happened to us was television. That is when everything sped up. We shipped industry away from our shores and made TV the national babysitter.
David64 is making me think that we grew up not far apart. I was just talking a friend last week, about how stupid we were as children. Our mothers were making us fresh homemade bread straight out of the oven, and we were turning up our noses begging for "Wonder Bread".
Television, it sucked our brains dry, in preparation for the internet. Welcome to the Matrix.

Television wasn't a problem for me. I didn't have a color TV until the late 80's. Then we got a set and the VHS was the problem, oh man.

Not to braaagggg ... but uu uutt, my wife is a master chef. Her cooking erased all memories of other food.
My parents have passed and we're a long way from anyone related. If you've got your kin close, you're probably better off than just getting fatter. We have a kitchen table that seats eight. Never downsizing it.
