“We affluent oldies - the burned-out Boomers - are still trying to find meaning and purpose in our lives, and the more we look at commercial stuff, the more we revert to our peasant and hunter gatherer origins.

Bryan Padrick, The Bus
“I love this! Fantastic writing, interesting and varied topics, makes me think and helps me learn, and entertaining. Hmmm… that’s a pretty darn good mix.”
