Begin by standing on a comfortable surface with plenty of room. With a a five pound potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides and hold as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute and then relax. Each day you will find you can do it for longer periods [...]
Here’s a great midweek, it’s-gonna-thunderstorm, but-I-got-the-yard-mowed-and-now-I’m-starved dinner. Six Johnsonville Beer Brats and a handful of Bourbon and a nifty Johnsonville Sausage apron. Oh, what? You don’t have a Johnsonville Sausage apron do you. OK, it will still work, but you will have to be very neat. (Loser.) Matt Rivera, my new best friend who does PR for Johnsonville Sausage, sent me [...]

I Knew It, I Just Knew It. She’s Important.

I knew she was on a covert, undercover mission and had to return home because of the new administration and the extreme danger she faced if she remained at her assignment. Otherwise, why would she be so mysterious? Other than the fact that she is a single boomer woman writing stuff on the internet? Now that her [...]

I was conflicted: shall I alliterate or rhyme the headline? If you know someone who is acting more important than they really are, a snappy retort is: “s/he thinks his sh*t doesn’t stink.” Penguins are important.

I had a skin cancer removed recently and have a lot of skin damage to my foreskinhead and other body parts exposed to the sun. When we played golf this weekend, I had Nancy spray my forehead with sunblock. Hey! That stuff works! Science is amazing. I didn’t get a sunburn on my receding hairline. The couple [...]
I think Danica Patrick is cute. Not hot. Not sexy. Not slutty. Just cute. I’m getting old. But in her latest commercial for Boost Mobile, Danica Patrick says I still have a shot to have her go motor-boating in my man boobs. Because we all know, what is in commercials actually happens in real life.
May is Don’t Break a Hip Month. It’s also “Things Get Eary When You’re a Boomer” Month. I use Energizer batteries in my hearing aid (when I wear them.) They sent me some propaganda that came from study they did on how not hearing affects adult kids. No surprises here, unless you have a hearing loss and won’t [...]

UPDATE: Reclast Is Not a Pill

   Posted by: goinglikesixty Tags:

Guess who didn’t read the press release I published for May is Osteoporosis & Prevention Month? Moi. And the PR dude called me on it. And sent me a link that works. To set the record straight: http://www.reclast.com/info/tools/isi.jsp One final thing. Sorry to get technical on ya, but we are trying really hard to fight the misconception that Reclast is a [...]
