That begs a question: I was born in 1965, so I'm not a boomer and I've never heard of my ilk referred to as gen-x either. What am I?

13th generation.

according to the Strauss-Howe generational theory, you are a 13th generation (aka generation x):

perry farrell was born in 1959 and sara mclachlan in 1968.  i don't know if that really means anything, i just thought i would post it.  though perry farrell is actually a boomer, i guess it shows that the early gen-xers were performing at lilith fair and lollapalooza.  trent reznor was born in 1965.

I was born in 1964 and feel no generational connection to Boomers or Gen Xers, although I did attend Lollapalooze in 1995.  Hence, "Tweener."

i went to lollapalooza in 1996 (the heavy metal one).  it was the only time i got to see the ramones and soundgarden and was a week before my wedding.  i got a horrible sunburn that was still visible in my wedding pictures.  i was supposed to go in 1997 in dallas, but got irritated with my travel mates and jumped ship in norman.  ahhh, memories.

I see JG got his new financing. Looks weird to me. $43 million on less than 300,000 sq. ft.?
I wonder who did the appraisal work. But I really wonder about the lender.....


You got that right! ;)

Write it down....and it's still overpriced. Jinx.
