Yeah, such are the wonders of old age. Some of my mommy blogger friends and I were talking about the Beatles the other day, and I mentioned one of my younger online mommy friends saying "Oh yeah, the Beatles. I think my grandfather used to listen to them." I might as well have told her I enjoyed vaudeville. I was lucky enough to have missed the fifties. I do believe Eisenhower put the country collectively to sleep, and I'm glad I didn't come along until things woke up a bit. Gretchen's last blog post..The Starbucks Experience.

@Gretchen: “oldstyle” I guess I’m going to have to get used the that. Today we were taking about Indy (duh) – and I referred to back on the fifties!!! OMG, I attended Indy in the FIFTIES!

I like the M&M terminology, and love the book, as I love any oldstyle book like that. I wish I had some of the health and menstruation texts they handed out in the '60s. Pure comedy gold, today. I think I use the Webster's online thesaurus when I'm in need of one, which isn't often. One thing you pick up as an English major is a zillion words no one knows or cares to know.
