You're Lost Between "Baby Boomer" and "Generation X" if...

[Harmanie]

I'm thinkin' that if you were born in 1988, that clearly classifies you as Generation X... You aren't lost!

LOL! Well thats good! I just went to his concert! I sang to just about all of his songs and some of his new ones! lol! Well at least I'm not lost! lol

[Glacier]

Oh, I can relate to almost all of those..

I learned to drive in a wood panelled station wagon and my sister and I used to fight about who got to ride in the "way back" seat on long trips.
