How do you make a Gen-Xer happy? Easy.
Give them a FREE Ms. Pac-Man video game machine – now at the Wash-Rite on Fairview!
I know, I should probably not announce it. You’ll run out there to do laundry and play video games. I lost to the ghosts in under five minutes. My Ms. Pac-Man skills have diminished in forty years (as well as other skills). At least there’s something to do during a tumble dry!
Speaking of Gen-Xers, here’s my Gen X review of “All My Sons”, the play at the Ghent Playhouse this weekend. I was not very aware of the “Silent Generation” before seeing this play, but it helped my understanding of their reality. It is a superb production and worth the trip up Route 66. Plus, there’s a Dairy Queen. I don’t know if they have video games there at the Dairy Queen. Probably not. You cannot have everything you want in life, which is how I begin my review – very upbeat.
