Today I learned something new. I learned about the Silent Rave. Most of us know what a Rave is — it is a big old warehouse party — often all night and in the past 20 – 30 years very often associated with drug use (remember Ecstasy?) Raves blossomed from smaller warehouse venues [...]
I just had an epiphany as a result of today’s Wall Street meltdown. I may have to change my focus. I’ve been spending years writing about Boomers and 50 Plussers to help express our voice and to creatively find ways for us to continue to secure meaningful employment as we hit the “50″ [...]
Oh my! Such a great Sunday morning. Between the Saturday Night Live (Tina Fey vamps as Palin with Amy Poehler as Clinton) intro last night and an article on Sarah Palin by Michael Seitzman, I am just laughing!!! I’ll also point you to a great article by Cynthia Samuels on what we should [...]
I support Barack Obama’s candidacy and I’m not a huge McCain/Palin fan, but as an advocate for 50 plussers, I have to make a comment about the new Obama ad. Bad move. In the ad, Obama’s camp attacks McCain for his inability to use a computer or send email.First of all, McCain can’t. [...]

I think I’m going to have to change back to ocean sounds. Here’s the deal. Last year, that terrible economic year (the one where most of us lost 10% of [...]

However, I’m used to the Canadian system, which is pretty straightforward (at least I think so!) In the Canadian system, you vote for your Member of Parliament. The majority of MPs who are elected [...]
Amy Zuckerman (my co-developer of the virtual business and career survey running on Eons.com) has just passed along her breaking press release — and you’re reading it here first. (If you scroll down, down, down, you’ll find yours truly quoted — always getting a word in on behalf of the 50 plusser jobseeker!)
[...] So much to write about and so little time! First big piece of news: I’ve arranged to host a “Town Hall” for Gen Plussers, in Los Angeles (suburb of Encino) at a lovely venue. More details to follow, but here is some info to start getting the word out. Tentative date: Tuesday, January [...]
I don’t typically wax political, but on this issue, I need to speak out. Earlier this week, Hillary Clinton unveiled her proposed Health Care Plan. To read a summary from her campaign website, click on the link: http://www.hillaryclinton.com/feature/healthcareplan/summary.aspxMy history? I was born and raised in Canada, where there is universal health coverage. For [...]
