As our parents get older, where can we turn for advice and information to help us deal with everything?

A few months ago, my husband John and I were having dinner with two other Boomer couples. We've been friends for years and were catching up on our lives and families. Near the end of the evening, one of our friends commented, "We used to get together and talk about the challenges of raising our kids. Now we get together and talk about our aging parents."

Why Are TV Networks At War With TV Watchers?

HawkTrek

It's screwy: TV networks MUST have watchers -- lots of us -- or they go out of business. So why are they making it so hard to watch their shows?

I'm talking about the wacky practice of scheduling shows at odd times and odd lengths. It's in pursuit of a bone-head theory about preventing channel switching, but it more likely prevents watching in the first place.

Advisor's Experience in San Diego Firestorm 2007

HawkTrek

Boomer Advisor is published by Advisor Media from our home office in the heart of San Diego. For the past three day we've been living the nightmare known as Firestorm 2007. So far, so good. Our office hasn't been threatened (unlike the Cedar Fire of 2003, which burned just a block from us). None of our San Diego-area staff was harmed and their homes all survived.

But I must add, "so far", because fires still rage in various areas of the county, and if new fires start, there's still plenty left to burn.
