Remember the first job you had in high school? The reality of work was a bracing slap in the face for the pampered tail-end of the baby boom. That generation faced a moribund economy and a job market sucked dry by the boomers that had preceded them. We kids of the suburban professional class worked in chain restaurants at malls, in fast food, in market research. It was supposed to build character. In me it revealed a dizzying aby ...

Blackout: Jay recounts several dates with oblivion leading up to his stay at the booby-hatch. Adolescent angst, booze, sexual harassment, dancing in the rain, pants-free LSD freak-outs in the snow, cops, parallel universes filled with after-school special agony. Back in the 80s it was called 'losing it,' and boy, did Jay ever. Big time. Or as our "President" put it, "When I was young and stupid, I was young and stupid."

The Band:The tail end of the baby boom all wanted to be rock stars. But how many people actually pursued that dream to the point of walking out on a stage in front of hundreds of people?

Partytown!The open parties of wild adolescents in the late seventies have been immortalized in a bunch of films for a reason: they were nuts. Jay remember's his own experience with a place he and his brother called 'Partytown.' A place without parental supervision, a testosterone fueled, smoke filled, beer cooled, acid enhanced saturnalia which we all somehow survived. Our generation, the tail end of the babyboom, didn't have a war. We had partytown--but it was enough. You can listen to thi ...

Gay MarriageJay lives down the street from the courthouse where the first gay couples in the country were legally marred. This piece, compiled for an email list and never sent, mixes a pre-written essay with some off-the-cuff musing. Hunks of this are taken from an Atlantic article I read awhile back, I think.

Family Bed 1A few minutes on the family bed--the family bed means sleeping with your kids when they're infants and toddlers. When and how the family bed ends exactly is the big question now. We are assuming that when they go to college, they'll be used to sleeping by themselves. The books are a bit vague on how it is supposed to end. Or perhaps they are simply lying. The kids now start out in their own beds (they're 7 and 5) and drift over to our beds sometime in the night, most of the tim ...
