To the Editor,
Okay. We the folks of the ages of 60 to 70, and beyond, are considered as those children that were born after World War 2.
In this time, the following happened.
New housing development. New jobs. Economy was on the rise. New gadgets on the market. Television. Transistor radios. Reel to reel tape recorders, 8 track players, turntables, and cameras.
A few years later we saw instamatic cameras and video cameras. Fast forward to calculators, VCRs, microwaves, cassettes, CDs, and DVDs.
Now today has arrived. As we approach those golden years, you'll see: gold watches. Plaques for your service with your company.
Pension right around the corner.
But wait. What do I see? AARP…timeshare…medicade ..discounts everywhere. Not to mention the specials at the grocery stores.
Ah. The retired life.
And don't forget to take your meds.
