You know you're old, when you and someone around your age are having a conversation in the chat room and no one else in there has clue what you're talking about.

 

*****************

 

You know you're old when you remember being able to flick your lighters at concerts and smoke and the ushers didn't turf you out.

 

*****************

 

You know you're old when you have to use a magnifying glass to read fine print because even your progressive bifocals can't make out everything.

 

*****************

 

You know you're old if you generally post on this thread.

Recently, general political chit-chat with my wet-behind-the-ears dental hygienist led to my mentioning a jolly old fellow named Richard Nixon. She said, "Who's that? Is he a politician?"

You know your old if you know what CREEP stood for. (What were they thinking? or not??)

While lying in bed and chatting with one of your favorite SP's she refers to something as having been from "a long time ago, ya know, in the 90's".......I still don't feel like the 90's was a "long" time ago, lol. Or the 80's for that matter. :p Wasn't the 90's like just last year or something?

here's one for ya... "fuddle duddle"

Hey, I worked as a trans-editor for awhile in the House, doing Hansard and can assure that everything that is published in Debates is heavily edited. As the story goes, which I heard more than once around the office was that Hon. Pierre Elliott Trudeau actually said F*** Off.

 

So obviously (due to context) what he said had to be included in the transcript, so an alternative, less derogatory term was created.

 

Thus..."Fuddle Duddle" was born.

 

And the SOB who came up with it was never credited or compensated accordingly for it.

You know your old when you remember walking across the tarmac and climbing steps into an airliner

And there wasn't the need for security screening like today, because people used airlines for travel, not for hijacking or flying into buildings...sometimes I long for the good old days

This photo is when the bad guys look, and realize the guy (Steve McQueen) they have been following is now following them

Bullitt, excellent movie, wish they made them like that now

 

Here's another reason why Bullitt was so good

The Deep, now I remember why I liked that movie

 

Speaking of which, you know your old when after watching this movie you were afraid to go swimming

And this classic line from the movie

I don't think you have to be old to be afraid to go swimming after seeing Jaws......that movie still scares the bejeezus out of prospective swimmers :p One of my faves!
