Based on the numbers from the U.S. Census Bureau, there are more Boomers born from 1956 through 1964 than born from 1946 through 1955.
Our back-of-the-envelope calculation indicates that yesterday, August 15, 2007, was the day the 39,000,000th (out of 78 million) Boomer turned 50.
So today there are officially more Boomers over the age of 50 than under.
Today, as any good Boomer knows, is Madonna's birthday. She, of course, is still a child at 49.
Seriously, think about it. This is what 49 looks like today? In honor of Phil Rizzuto, Holy Cow!
Update: Now we know how she maintains her youthful appearance. Typcial Boomer, better living through chemistry. Sigh.

A great post. Short, but to the point. Now I don't feel quite as badly about my slightly sagging skin.
