The Civil Wars do this song. I was shocked at the lyrics. the chorus used to be sung by all the good little Christian church kids, me included. telling, no?

I know I sang that as a kid, but just the chorus. But somehow, even as a kid, something seemed off to me about the song, like it wasn't as happy as the words seemed.

Congrats! How has the increase in physical fitness felt? Are you stronger and more energetic?
- Spidra Webster
Having better fitness is great. Used to get winded climbing stairs, not anymore! Unfortunately, my weight loss hasn't helped my bad back issues - been fighting back pain for 5 months. Hard to exercise when you're in pain!
- Ken Gidley
Excellent
- Rodfather
That's too bad. I'm pretty sure losing weight off my gut would help my back issues. Do you do hamstring stretches? My chiro told me (and my experience bears out) that tight hamstrings can pull on things in a way that causes low back pain. Of course, if your back pain is due to disc issues, that's another kettle of fish.
- Spidra Webster
Has this all been due to bike riding or have you had a program involving diet regimen and other exercises? I'm curious because I have chronic pain from disability. As you say, it's hard to exercise when you're in pain. I'm trying to change my eating regimen again as well as exercise even more. I'm curious what worked for you.
- Spidra Webster
I don't stretch enough, but I do have disc issues. Had surgery 15 years back, looking like I may need another go of it. :(
- Ken Gidley
Spidra - the biggest thing for me was changing my diet. I've used LoseIt.com and the companion iPhone app to help me set a daily calorie budget (based on my current weight and the rate I wanted to lose weight - 1.5 lbs / per week), and track all my calorie intake. I log every bite I eat, every day now. I can eat anything I want, so long as I have the room in my calorie budget for the...

Hrm. Reading an article that describes "...generation Y, defined in this study as those born in 1972-1973 or later." Huh? I've never seen Gen Y attributed to folks born in the 1970s! I guess they can define whatever they want, but yuck.
Vicarbott liked this
No. I am Gen X. Younger brother is Gen Y. NO ONE CAN LABEL ME! ;)
- ellbeecee
I think early 70's is stretching Gen Y label
- Sir Shuping is just sir
They go on to cite a survey from the American Association of Law Libraries that said Gen Y was "defined as those born after 1977." I wonder if people are just fudging the labels to make the stats say whatever they're trying to prove.
- LB so u no it's real
You mean people would distort statistics to say what they wanted??? I can't believe it. :P
- caj needs a haircut

- LB so u no it's real
Also, this adds to my general theory that most library/archives articles are utter crap.
- LB so u no it's real
I always thought it was 18-20 years for a generation. Baby boomers from 1945 to the early 1960's, Gen X from the early 1960's- early 1980's. Gen Y from there until the late 90's-early 2000's, Millenials from from the late-90's to the late teens.
- Jimminy, CoG of FF
The author uses another survey's label of 1946-64 for Baby Boomers, so I guess she only allows 1965-71 for Gen X? If I really cared, I could look at the sources she cites. But I doubt I care that much.
- LB so u no it's real
Lies, damn lies, and statistics.
- Corinne L
Certainly not unusual. I've seen The Millennials (or whatever) defined so as to make it the largest generation in history, by making it open-ended. Better tack: Ignore the generation labels. They're mostly meaningless and frequently harmful, as they decidedly encourage stereotyping. Signed, Walt Crawford, "silent generation."
