I'm thinking, Tal, that the L stood for Lettuce, and the "T" for tomato...the D... I dunno...Diet Killer?

You've not posted your picture on the 'Monitor Monitor on the Wall' thread...be careful, otherwise I'll send the Dominator after you!

You also know you're getting old when you go out to a club and you start referring to the patrons as children or fledglings!

That's why I stop going to club nights that are filled with young ones. I got so tired of little girls approaching me and suprised to hear how old I am. I stop dating young ones few months ago.
I prefer mature thinking women now.

your body makes noises it never used to before you think twice before bending over to pick up the quarter you just dropped.

You also really know you are old when:

(1) Your best memories of Duran Duran are of the "Fab Five" and get irked by the mention of a certain Warren C.

(2) You see your skinny ties being sold at the vintage clothing store.

(3) Your idea of innovation was the McDLT (cold on one side and warm on the other)

(4) You wished you were George Michael because of all of the girls he had!

(5) 'Surfing' and the 'Net' were aquatic references and a 'chat room' was a place in the house for family fights.

(6) You remember when the only people who had satellite dishes were employed by NASA.

(7) You remember when MTV actually played videos and that Dr. Dre wasn't a friend of Emimem, but of Ed Lover.

(8) You did not see any design flaws in the AMC Pacer and thought that AMC's merger with Renault was a great idea.

(9) You used to use your calculator to spell words upside down, like "ShellOil", thinking you were freakin' Bill Gates.

(10) YOu flew on airlines like PSA, Air Cal, Pan Am, and TWA.

LOL!!! Yes, I'm definitely old because I can also relate to these!

The noise part hasn't happened to me, but considering that my back goes out more than I do, I hear you about trying to pick up change. Also would like to add the one about everything hurting, and that which doesn't hurt, doesn't work.

**Shewolf** · September 25th, 2003, 04:18 AM

Wow...I don't mind being the baby of the group so much now...my earliest tv show memories are Heman, Shera, Thundercats, 3-2-1 Contact etc...oh, and of course Transformers and Go-bots

I was in the suburbs of Detroit this past summer for a month visiting friends. They had a Dream Cruise on the weekend of Aug. 17th. I saw some really neato cars. I also saw 2 PACERS on the street. I thought that I would NEVER see another Pacer again in my life. I can't believe that I saw not 1, but 2!!!!!! he he.

**Electroswank** · September 25th, 2003, 04:29 AM

wow look at Corey posting!!! - where've you been lady?

yes, actually i also remember 321 contact and Zoom!

ahh, wasn't it great when kids were kids and not trying to be sexy pop stars playing with cellphones and pagers?

**bill** · September 25th, 2003, 04:39 AM

okokok now ive tried to avoid the age issue, but here you go. my earliest tv memory is my mom dad and brother sitting around a black and white tv with rabbit ears watching man walk on the moon for the first time.
its funny though cause all the guys in the bands ive played with are at least fifteen years my junior and at the end of the night im stilll hanging with them as they are running out of gas.
in the sweat shop where we work at the younger guys fear me cuz they see me moving immense amounts of weight that usualy requires two or three people.
the best is when we get some hot shot fitness freak in who ends up leaving cuz they cant handle the heavy lifting.
i guess they dont have to know that after i moved that 650 pound barrel ,that i feel like mainlining ben gay and that putting a microphone on my joints and sampling it could provide some of the hardest industrial drum loops known to human kind.
the thing that sucks about getting old is the icreasing sense of ones own mortality .

**Shewolf** · September 25th, 2003, 04:52 AM

ooohh...I'm really not looking foward to get older purely from the body aches point of view...I already have bad enough backpains, knees that barely work, and ankles that pop more than rice krispies...that's what I get for being an active kid I guess

**Bornslippy** · September 25th, 2003, 08:27 PM
