...but what’s this about Generation Jones? Apparently I didn’t get the email. According to Wikipedia (gag) now that I’ve at last found my generation group (not that I’ve ever used the supposed ever so popular ‘70s term “jonesing”) I’m lumped together with Hussein.... sigh, can’t seem to catch a break.

I have officially designated those born between 1956 and 1963, Generation Murgatroyd.

Why? Because those are the years in which most of my friends were born and one of my friends is fond of saying, "Heavens to Murgatroyd!" A phrase popularized by the cartoon character, Snagglepuss. By the way, Snagglepuss was created in 1959, in the midst of Generation Murgatroyd.

Since we are just making up new generations, I belong to Generation Kick Ass. To be in Generation Kick Ass you have to be born between 12:01am on November 5th to 11:59pm on November 5th.

I have always wondered how to spell "Murgatroyd". Now I know.
