Boomers are '46 - '65 so they say....That's quite a time span if you ask me. Google generation jones and read about it. It makes sense to me. One of my dearest friends and co-worker turns 60 this year, but we don't have anything in common generationally speaking. I was born in '61 and just turned 45.
It's more like a split between those who were of the Vietnam Era/Served in Vietnam and those just younger who missed it and later.
Which reveals why I, at 47, had nothing what-so-ever in common with John F'n Kerry who made a big deal about serving in Vietnam. You did know he served there, right? ;)
(BTW, it's not that I don't appreciate those who are Vietnam Vets, quite the contrary.)
