In a shocking revelation that was just made clear to me by an embarrassingly thin royalty check, there are many people who have not gone to Amazon dot com to acquire a copy of my book, Staying Happy Healthy And Hot. Subtitled, "We're the brand new Louie Louie Generation." Which is a shameless plug. But it also means some of you may not understand what the Louie Louie Generation is all about. So let me fill in this disastrous gap in your understandings about life. \n\tUnlike "Generation X" or "The Baby Boom Generation", there are no age limits to the Louie Louie Generation. You are a member of the "Louie-Louie" generation if you can pass these two tests: #1 is "Louie-Louie" a song that has been playing somewhere in the back of your head since you first heard it? #2 Is getting stuff done and having some fun more important to you than sticking nails through your tongue like the Pimple People, or sitting in a rocking chair drooling, drinking beer, and watching daytime TV like the Dreary Drones? More about the Pimple People and the Dreary Drones a little later. As Big Louie, his own bad self says in my book, "Most Louie Louie Generation Lads and Ladies don't have rock hard abs and perky breasts any more, but we certainly have no intention of letting ourselves turn into hunks of luke warm meat."
