Probably because their Baby Boomer parents know all too well what their kids could get up too! :)Rosy Brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156447894512749413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6146286857215408059.post-37316891521627869042014-01-14T14:37:03.721-08:002014-01-14T14:37:03.721-08:00My heart got flashback pangs just looking at the l...My heart got flashback pangs just looking at the list of albums - I'm sure I had to buy a replacement album after wearing out my first Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. And just the other day I was thinking I should download a 'new' Carole King/Tapestry album to replace the one much enjoyed but long gone.<br /><br />You know what is one of my pet peeves? To hear any adult between the ages of 60 and 70 complaining about the youth of today. Are you kidding me? You guys were the generation of sex, drugs and rock and roll. And no bras. And low riders! <br /><br />Which I reminded a 60-something woman the other day complaining about today's Daisy-duke shorts trend.

Whether you like Elvis or not, he was a huge part of the growing up years of Baby Boomers.Rosy Brewerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17156447894512749413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6146286857215408059.post-69944164550392252492014-01-14T12:57:28.675-08:002014-01-14T12:57:28.675-08:00Elvis is not baby boomer music.
