It’s been pretty obvious that society has been going downhill for a long time.  In ancient times we have pulled through due to our wise elder’s wisdom.  

I was hoping that this will be the case in our generation. That is until I read something that jolted me back to reality.  It seems that not one is  seeking ways to advance and enlighten the tired masses. 

From the privacy of their homes, baby boomers are writhing and wiggling, wishing & hoping that vertigo does not strike them in mid air, while they do their killer moves.  Yep, they are wrapped around some slimy pole. 

They attach themselves in this very inelegant manner like overweight lizards hoping to attract a mate. 

 I say that is way too much wasted energy.   If they  really want to attract a mate then they should do like the rest of us.  Go to a dark bar, grab on to their barstool and hope for the best.

I recently read very disturbing news about the French artiste Gerard Depardieu. It seems that the famous French icon peed on the aisle of a commercial plane.

Now I am not an unreasonable person. After all, I am sure this sort of thing happens all the time when you fly on private planes.  Heck we even know  that  what happens in a private plane stays there. However, this is a commercial plane we are talking about!

It seems Mr. Depardieu had sucked on way too many French grapes and decided he needed to use the loo, right away, like right n-o-w.

When told that the bathroom lavatories were occupied and he would have to wait, well you know. I think we already have this picture burned in our brain, so I will not repeat. Mr. Depardieu indignantly denied any implication that he was intoxicated.  Instead he has bravely blamed it on his prostate.

It can be a catastrophe when baby boomers don’t keep up with the times. Just ask the king of studs, Hugh Hefner.      

Alas, he does understand  that today’s chaste young ladies will speak their minds to anyone, any time.  It can be one person or millions.  It seems that the very reserved Crystal Harris, Hugh Hefner’s ex-fiancé, had a cozy chat with Howard Stern on his Sirius radio show. Just the two of them and his audience.

She oh so shyly, confessed to only having sex with the 85-year hunk on one occasion.  She then thoughtfully added that he had barely lasted two seconds. 

Well my dear, tell us something we don’t already know.  When realizing she finally got  Sterm’s  attention she went on and on about their creepy TV reality life.

“He does not really take off his clothes. I have never seen him naked and don’t know if I want to”  

Why on earth could Hefner not predict a breach of etiquette like this would happen? By the way, Playboy responded by saying that they were “shocked and disappointed in Harris.”  

Yes, a magazine that has barely legal aged  women with an old geezer playing house was  “just shocked and disappointed!”   The next day the very modest Hefner wrote a flurry of twitters defending his manhood, but alas, it was too late.  The damage was done.

Few things are scarier than listening to Suze Orman and her financial advice. You know who I mean.   That cute looking older lady with a perfect tan and expensive looking hair.  
She will tell anyone that has over $50,000 saved in the bank and is thinking of spending $300 for spider vein removal:  NO! You don’t have enough equity yet!! Don’t do it!

The other day I watched the show where she clobbered some unsuspecting over 60 year old audience members with yet more devastating news about retirement. She pretty much told them that they would not be retiring at all in this lifetime, and was not sure about the next lifetime either. NO! You don’t have enough equity yet!! Don’t do it!

In fact, the news was so devastating; I am surprised that she did not have a fleet of ambulances standing by.  We were that close to losing half of our senior population!
How in the world did she not think ahead and have a First Response Team outside the studio waiting for the audience casualties? I don’t care what the reality is, there are just some things better left unsaid.
