It was very surreal to me Boomers, to see Putin yukking it up with Bush at the Olympic Games in Beijing while his troops invaded Georgia. Used to be that leaders actually led their armies into battle, and didn't sit back with some popcorn and beach volleyball while innocents were slaughtered by their command. It makes me think that they should give out medals for war. Better yet, send the leaders directly to the front lines, and let us get the front row seats. ]]> Fri, 22 Aug 2008 16:31:28 -0400 War at the Olympics 11043916 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/the-dark-knight/11043916/

Boomers, I've finally seen The Dark Knight. Have you? What did you think. I thought it was amazing, and all involved deserve Oscar gold. Christian Bale was a great Bruce Wayne, but his recent family beating antics cast a bit of a pall over the fight scenes. Heath Ledger was brilliant, and deserves every bit of Oscar buzz. The only question is, with all the great villains in the Batman universe, who should be the bad guy in the next movie? I have an idea... ]]> Tue, 19 Aug 2008 13:13:07 -0400 The Dark Knight 10814902 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/death/10814902/

A friend's mother passed away recently, and while at the funeral, it got me thinking about the euphemisms we use for death. Look, right there I said passed away, instead of died. You never want to hear somebody died. Better to say they've left us. They've bought the farm. They've kicked the bucket. They've checked out, like life is a four star hotel, and now they've gone back to the great beyond after a couple of decades sunning here on planet Earth. When I go, try to make up a new euphemism so nobody feels too bad about it. ]]> Wed, 30 Jul 2008 16:32:50 -0400 Death 10812820 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/the-boomer-file-boomer-vaginas/10812820/

Don't click away Boomers, this show isn't actually about vaginas. It's just that whenever we do a racy show, we get a ton of viewers.

You know what I hate Boomers? Bicyclists. I know that might be an unpopular sentiment, but I find them all so smug. Like they're saving the planet and I'm a big lame polluter.

The question on my mind today is, would I be happier now if I had listened to my father years ago? When he told me to forget this comedy thing and go own a McDonald's franchise? I'm sure I would have hated every minute of the last thirty years, but I have a sneaking suspicion that I would be much happier now, at this point in my life. What about you Boomers?

Boomers, what's your philosophy on life? Are you a "play it like it lays" kind of person, or do you only get satisfaction when you are in complete control of a situation.

Boomers, I have a confession to make. Now, I love Barack Obama, I really do think he's a beacon of hope in these dark times. That said, there is no way I want him to be the next president. No, I'm putting my support directly behind John McCain. And do you know why? Because Obama simply isn't funny. I mean, sure Obama can get the US out of the war, fix the economy and bring about universal health care, but what will the late night talk shows do. They can't make fun of him. He's not funny. McCain? Now he's funny. John McCain in '08! ]]> Wed, 02 Jul 2008 17:25:19 -0400 Obama's Not Funny 10278422 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/empty-nest/10278422/

Boomers, my daughter is leaving the nest, and it's stirring up all sorts of feelings. Grief, loss, anguish, and most of all fear. Fear of what the Dreaded Mrs. Frohman and I are going to do with ourselves as we ponder the rest of our lives together. I shudder to think. It also makes me look back (in anger) at the day my own father pushed me out of the nest and whispered one word: "Fly." ]]> Wed, 25 Jun 2008 16:17:03 -0400 Empty Nest 10122454 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/mr-bigshot/10122454/

I think it's pretty clear that as people age, they have less patience for new technological innovations. My father was a salesman, and I remember showing him my first car phone, thinking that such a thing would be very useful for his business. But no, all it impressed on him was that I was a no good big shot. I never heard the end of it. But it got me thinking, what would he think of things we take for granted today if he was around when they were first invented? ]]> Wed, 18 Jun 2008 16:06:07 -0400 Mr. Bigshot 10084005 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/nudists/10084005/

Boomers, I read recently that nude vacations, or "nakations" are surging in popularity. Apparently, nudism is the great equalizer; free of the sociological trappings of clothes, people are better able to relate to one another. I guess I can see that, but the problem I have with nudists is that most of them aren't very attractive. And neither am I. Just kidding, but I recently figured out the cost of a nakation with the Dreaded Mrs. Frohman. $135,000. Each. $5000 for the nude cruise, and $130,000 each for the pre-trip plastic surgery. ]]> Mon, 16 Jun 2008 15:56:50 -0400 Nudists 10005478 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/fathers-day/10005478/

This Sunday is Father's Day Boomers, and while we all know it's just another holiday dreamed up by the likes of Hallmark Cards, it's still nice to get a little appreciation. However, my kids take the opportunity not to celebrate me, but to critique my parenting skills. They even make up their own report cards for me. I guess some people might find that cute.

Today's episode of the Boomer File goes out to Hillary Clinton. We're sorry to hear you've finally dropped out of the race for the nomination, but we've got some ideas for you. Why not come to Canada and run for Prime Minister? We've already had a female PM, so that whole sexism thing is a non-issue. Plus, there's no telling how long you could hold onto power? Mackenzie King was in office for a total of 21 years, and we'd love to have you for even longer. Stay strong, Hillary, and consider our offer. ]]> Wed, 11 Jun 2008 15:22:14 -0400 Hillary for Prime Minister! 9857592 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/sex-after-death/9857592/

I know Boomers, you're scared I'm going all necrophiliac on you, but what I'm really talking about is what happens after your spouse dies. Will you mourn forever, or pick out a new bride in a few weeks? I've heard that in some cases, the dying spouse actually recommends his or her own replacement. I don't know if that would work for me. If I'm dying, the last thing I want to think about is setting up the Dreaded Mrs. Frohman with a new man. I guess I'd be ok with it if she went first, but knowing her she'd make an unsettling choice for my future wife. ]]> Wed, 04 Jun 2008 15:03:54 -0400 Sex After Death 9746320 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/what-did-he-do/9746320/

Did anyone catch Chris Matthews' smackdown of conservative talk show host Kevin James the other week. It was magnificent. Matthews kept asking James what Neville Chamberlin did that was so offensive, and the poor pundit couldn't answer to save his life.
