Ken, you? Generation X? At the ripe old age of 33?! Yeah right...
Dream on, pal !!! :-)

Hmmm, I'm not a shrink, but this sounds to me an awful lot like an
early mid-life crisis more than a Gen-X rebellion. (Hmmm, does your
wife know about that?) Besides, you're confused: we all know that
Gen-X'ers are no rebels -- they're _slackers_, right? :-)
Come on, Ken, come back to your senses and rejoin the Generation Z,
otherwise known as Zuiks/Zuikettes or Zuikoholics. You'll feel
much, MUCH better, I promise. :-)
