Generation X. If you grew up in the 1970s, 1980s, and early 1990s, you know just how cool it was to be a kid back then. We had the greatest music, movies, games, technology, and pop culture of any generation, and though we've grown older, we have refused to outgrow our love of everything GenX. GenXGrownUp looks at yesterday and today through the eyes of Generation X'ers who have refused to grow up!

    REWIND: Choose Your Own Adventure Books

    You are walking down a path and you see a dragon blocking your way. If you want to fight the dragon, turn to page 3. If you want to talk to the dragon, turn to page 4. If you want to throw rocks at the dragon…. well, you can’t. Why would anybody want to throw rocks at a dragon? Anyway, Choose Your Own Adventure books gave us an opportunity to feel in control at an age where we didn’t have a lot of control in our day-to-day lives.

    Remembering Dolly Parton

    We’re remembering Dolly Parton—one of those stars who seemed to be everywhere when we were growing up. From “9 to 5” and “Islands in the Stream” to movies, television, and a career that just kept growing, Dolly became part of the soundtrack of Generation X. This time, we’re looking back at her life, her generosity, and the legacy she leaves behind.
