Remembering The Fantasticks and Jerry Orbach - and Moving Life Online

Way back in 2006, I wrote a post on my personal blog about The Fantasticks.  (You remember, don't you?)  Today, for reasons you don't want to know, I was reviewing much of my early work and tripped over this post.  It seems so appropriate to all of us, to the summer and, well, I just felt like passing it on.   Did this wonderful show do the same things to you?

OK - so I should be used to it by now.  I've been -- as I often say -- a walking demographic Baby Boomer as long as I can remember.  But on the morning after the re-opening of THE FANTASTICKS*  - which ran off-Broadway for 42 years, I read a piece about "adults 55+ adapting online."  Of course we are -- sooner or later whatever I'm doing becomes part of a generational wave.

Don't worry - there IS a connection.
