but for Our Generation...we've not found separate ways to have "In Commons."

We do for politics..but, it's not the same...we feel.

We think it's a Generational Thing. We had friends with older ...but they are dying off and we sort of in a gap with the "Football Tail Gate/Hunting Crowd" and the "Constant Political" of the ones our age or younger...who we share ISSUE oriented causes in common...but, have little in common beyond that because we are a bit older than they are.

Sometimes we feel like "TWEENIES" the wedge between Generations.
