With so much negative reporting in the media today, all of us, especially the 50 and over crowd, need more opportunities to laugh. And as if we didn’t already know it, recent studies have shown that laughter not only eases tension, but is also good for maintaining a healthy heart. This being the case, 151 Things That Happen Or Don’t Happen When You Turn 50 may even add years to your life.

But at the very least, the book will put a smile on your faces as you read each proverbial saying that humorously harpoons the “Never trust anyone over 30…I’ll live forever” generation. This is the group that’s now embracing Dr. Shoals, Ben Gay, and Viagara.

The book not only lampoons boomers but those who are privileged enough to be associated with them, such as children, grandchildren and in-laws. But it’s all done in good wholesome fun.
