Killing the Baby Boom?

'Gotta up my game, 'cause the competition out there is very real, says this lady friend as she heads off to i kid you not...charm school

Etiquette trainers have reported a nice jump in business -- part of that bid for people to gain an advantage out there in the narrowing job market.

My take -- 'girlfriend, you never too old to learn something new. And some good manners right about now might be just what we all need -- especially if you are part of lucky group that still has a job.

All big smiles, 'til it hurts.

'Speaking on the recession blues -- depending on who you talking to...there's a killer on the loose.

On the one side of the white picket fence, for the first time in a minute, the birth rate has dropped among well-to-do baby boomers, all the experts are blaming it on the economy (NBC)--

makes sense, I'm guessing all those worries would deflate any steamy bedroom action -- 'no job, all those bills coming in, must mean no boners tonight. "Let's just cuddle instead." (big yawn)

I remember back in my old neighborhood -- where being poor was just the way it was -- kinda had the opposite effect.

'Folks would do-it all day and night (you could hear from my bedroom -- yeah we had thin walls), they did so much so they didn't spend too time worrying about being hungry.

Maybe that's why Latino's are right on track to being a majority in the next twenty years, (instead of a minority group).

All that hot-blooded-ness, we're f-ing right through the recession.

Strangely I'm not mad at that. Go-on and find happiness where every you can.
