From one Baby Boomer to another — for the last time.

Late show transition among baby boomers — Stephen Colbert to take over from David Letterman

America’s favorite curmudgeonly late night talk show host, the venerable David Letterman, is giving way to America’s new favorite talk show master, Stephen Colbert. As perhaps two of the most recognizable comedic pop culture leaders from opposite ends of the Baby Boomer spectrum, Colbert’s ascension to CBS’ prime time late night throne offers the Baby Boomer generation one last chance.

This is it for major talk show opportunities for the Boomers.

In the NFL, there are two kinds of players: key performers and role players. If you’re the latter, your team’s personnel department is always looking to replace you.

In the Seattle Seahawks’ championship season of 2013, a handful of part-time role players were called upon to play major roles. Here are three former role players that will play major roles in Seattle’s quest to repeat as Super Bowl champions.

Stress takes its toll on every generation.

If you’re at a point in your career where you are in a leadership role, you know stress. You know who else knows stress? The guys and gals at the bottom of the totem pole. I know some folks who wistfully wonder about ditching their top managerial positions for a “less demanding” role. Sound familiar?

I hope not. It’s a fantasy. The bottom-rung workers are no less stressed than the top dogs. You know who else is stressed? The guys and the gals stuck in the middle. They’re stressed too. Everyone is stressed — it’s just different licks off of the same liver-flavored ice cream cone.

Read about it on WiseTribe.

Do you have your advance directive in place?

A living will is a legal document (also known as an advance directive, health care directive and a physician’s directive) that a person uses to make known his or her wishes regarding life-prolonging medical treatments. A living will should not be confused with a living trust, which is a mechanism for holding and distributing a person’s assets to avoid probate.
