   I was born in ’59, which makes me a boomer, but most of this applies to the way I grew up.

   I was born in Feb. 1964 and I REFUSE to be classified as ANYTHING but GenX. Sorry, someone’s arbitrary timeline doesn’t change the TRUTH of my upbringing. I was NOT born to anyone from the Greatest Generation, but two folks from the Silent Generation. I knew the 60s, 70s, and 80s. Hell, Billy Idol’s first band was called “Gen X” and he is WAY OLDER THAN ME. Sorry, I’ll give some commonality to folks born after the war of those who either lived through or fought in it, but for kids of the next generation after them, its GEN X ALL THE WAY. My wife’s brothers and sisters (over a decade older than her) are clearly Boomers. WE ALL have NOTHING in common, including our taste in music. 1965 my ass.
