Milk was delivered in quart bottles and the cream came to the top.  My milk was delivered to the insulated box by the back door.

You know you are getting old when you remember math before "new math".

Does anyone remember base 6?

I never understood that crap - or the need for it.

How about hexadecimal...base 16?

You know you've gotten old when you hear the phrase "The Rabbit Died" and you Don't think Volkswagon or have to have it explained....

Weren't you playing that music when they were growing up?
I don't play most of the current stuff, so I play what I like, and my lil one sings along.    Than he finds some he really likes, and asks me to play them when we're in the car, which makes me smile, the little old soul.    M

and the milk was in bottles, half /third? pints, and warm, yuck, oh man Im old.
School dinners lining up in queues and getting an extra slice of toffee cake.
My kids have transferred all the Zeppelin, Floyd, Deep Purple, and Beatles etc  Cds on their Ipods. I still have all my albums,
when safety pins and bin liners were all you needed for a night out, but eyeliner and hairspray would cost ten times as much as the outfit. safety pins as a fashion accessory and jewellery
Black and white tv wasnt a "special effect"
But I know im old when I have to get up in the morning to pee like five minutes ago

Before hair conditioners were popular there was a conditioning product that we mixed with water.  They called it a rinse.  i don't remember the brand name.  We used it the same way you use hair condoitioners now.

Yes, my teen was also flabbergasted the first time I told her about cigarette vending machines.  It hasn't been THAT long since they were around.  I told her they were always in the entry of places like Dennys or other coffee shops (back when the term "coffee shop" didn't mean Starbucks).

Uh oh, you mean they're not around anymore??  I'm not only old, I don't get out much either![&o]

That doen't always mean that you're getting old.  My mother and her whole family use that saying.  (yes, they also refer to Pole-cats, and if things don't turn out the way that they want them to the first time, they just do them twiceT.. {not sure how to spell that... but you know, they add the T after once and twice.... Good God does that bother me!})



VirginPotty -> RE: You know you are getting old when: (1/27/2009 9:45:23 AM)

You know you're getting old when you have 2 HOT GUYS hitting on you (past the legal age) & you realize only Cher would take them up on their offers.

You know you're getting old when you wake up to find a mirror under your nose held by your um to see if you're breathing..

**Sorry, I'm too old to think of anymore so I went online & found some....see below**

I WISH I looked like my ID picture again!!!!

Denny's is still around.  What about HowardJohnson restaurants on the PA turnpike.  You sat down and they took your order and brought it to you.  Now they have Food Courts. 

My favorite at HJ was the hot dog.  They sliced the bun vertically instead of horizontally.



VirginPotty -> RE: You know you are getting old when: (1/27/2009 11:34:52 AM)

Remember Bob's Big Boy's restaurant with the BIG KID statue holding up the hamburger?
