Dave Rullo Presents: Aging Hip Replacement #41
As I’ve mentioned in this column before, I’m going to be turning 40 this year. This is a significant age in my estimation, one that marks the passage of youth. At 40 no one is ever referred to as the young guy or kid. At 40 our bodies are now beginning to accelerate in their decay. At 40 you’ve become what you are, no one talks about when they grow up or when they get older. So 40 is a […]
Dave Rullo Presents: Aging Hip Replacement #32
“Is this who I am now?” That’s the thought that was repeating over and over in my head as my wife, son and I all got ready to go to my niece’s baptism. Each time I looked at myself I thought “Is this who I am”, well no, I thought “Is this who I am, now?” I wasn’t sure I liked the answer. I asked Kim the question, I liked her answer a little more, something along the lines of […]
Aging Hip Replacement #12: Clothes Make The Man?
So I’ve already spent some column inches discussing clothes and the younger generation. This time I wanted to spend a little time talking about the clothes I wear and what I see others around me wearing. Monday through Friday between the hours of 7 a.m. and 5:30 p.m. (longer if I have to stop at the store on the ride home) I tell myself that clothes mean absolutely nothing. It’s what is inside that counts. I have to tell myself […]
Aging Hip Replacement #11: The One About The VMAs
I decided that I was going to write about something light this week. I’ve gotten a little flak from friends and family who have said my last few columns were a little too dark, a little too heady all in a row. Of course, I’m writing about my feelings of being flung towards middle age and beyond, not the happiest of experiences in my book. I wasn’t sure where I was going, started a few ideas (which all seemed to […]
Aging Hip Replacement #10: Defining Cool
“When is a person no longer interested in being cool?” That was the question asked at a business meeting I attended this week. As you know, I’ve been doing a little soul searching and research on that very topic here in this column so I was naturally interested. For some context—as you may know I work in radio. Don’t let the fact that it’s an all news radio station on the AM portion of the dial fool you: it’s still […]
Aging Hip Replacement II: Compromise
College for me was supposed to be a stopping point on my way to international stardom. I grew up in a suburb about a half hour outside of Pittsburgh and spent most of my senior year in high school and all of the summer dreaming about getting the hell out of there and to the city. It didn’t matter that Pittsburgh wasn’t New York, it was a first step on my way to New York where real culture presided. My […]
