seniors

art rock

Bay seniors may not agree on the world’s greatest living artist but there’s little argument who is the bravest one. Ai WeiWei, best known for his contributions to the “bird’s nest” Olympic stadium in Beijing has been constantly harassed by Chinese authorities including an 81-day incarceration on charges of tax evasion, pornography and bigamy. It […]

fogey flicks

Bay seniors are feeling flattered now that Hollywood is taking us seriously as a audience that prefers watching movies in theaters rather than on phones. Just for starters coming soon is “And So It Goes” with Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton, “Philomena” with Judi Dench, “Fading Gigolo” with Woody Allen playing a pimp, “Grudge Match” […]

the silver screen

Bay seniors  watching with curiosity the movie stars of our youth –deNiro, Pacino, Redford, Julie Christie, Jane Fonda- return to the silver screen may be unsurprised to learn that there is an entire film program devoted to our still powerful demographic. The 2013 Legacy Film Festival runs the weekend of June 7-9 at the Coppola […]

old sport

Bay senior tennis afficionados facing the bitter truth of knee replacements, have a quasi-embarrassing option in the new sport of pickleball (who came up with that ridiculous name).

geezer gifts

Bay seniors don’t need stuff. Most of us are trying to downsize. Nevertheless it is the holidays and the Geezer has found a few age appropriate gifts. Who are you? Clamber up your family tree online thanks to ancestry.com. Last year you thought iPads were pointless. As your cellphone gets harder to read, suddenly larger […]

codgertations

Certain seniors (and you know who you are) need designated drivers. There are just too many geezers gradually losing their vehicular skills for me to feel totally safe on Bay streets. Dare I recommend the DMV start instituting more frequent driving tests for our demographic? How do we tell our friends that we are only […]
