Here’s a $33,000,000 Hillbilly Mansion

   Posted by: goinglikesixty    in Random

Here’s why hillbillies get a bad name. I could have put up the first picture of a hillbilly mansion and you might get a little chuckle. Instead, I’ll put up a real hillbilly mansion and have you just marvel over how somebody could spend so much money and end up with a place that looks like [...]

Older Women RAWK: I’ll be Married to One for a While

   Posted by: goinglikesixty    in Birthdays

Nancy has a birthday today, making her an older woman for a few months. If you have the inclination, bip over to her blog and smart off in the comments. I’m pretty satisified with the gifts I have for her. No big surprises, but she’ll like them. (She is very good at dropping very pointed hints.) But [...]

McCain’s Sensible $520 Loafers

   Posted by: goinglikesixty    in Baby Boomer

Having declared my intention on who I’m voting for when it comes to President, a factoid that is hitting the blogs today makes me think this McCain dude has a pretty level head, even if he has a temper and potty mouth. If I were a right-wing blogger, and I found out that Barack Obama was [...]

Randy Pausch was a [...]

My Critique of Boomer Chronicle’s Critique of America’s Top Cities In Which To Live

   Posted by: goinglikesixty    in Baby Boomer

Just for giggles, I decided to steal from The Boomer Chronicles spin on the AARP Top Ten Places to Live in America: My Motto “Who you callin’ a baby boomer?!?#&*!” She put her thoughts in bold (heh, typo originally wrote blod - Blod the Impaler, I’m now blodding… anyhoo…) so I put my thoughts in italic. 1.

How I Downloaded a Virus: And You Can too

   Posted by: goinglikesixty    in Technology

Stupid, stupid, stupid. Then gullible, gullible, gullible. Then awestruck, awestruck, awestruck. Then it struck me: Bill Gates is a Prick. It was revenge of the Gates.

Our New $160,000 House - How Cheating Pays Off

   Posted by: goinglikesixty    in Empty Nesters, Entertainment, Holy Shit! Lookit This!

Whomever said “never trust a young chick showing lots of cleavage at a blackjack table” was wrong.

The Twits and Twats golf tournament opening event Friday night was a putting contest [...]
