You know you're getting old when you stop getting email spam from "hot Russian babes looking for love" and start getting email spam for "local plumbers looking for work"

You know you’re old when you recognize all of the oldtimer hall of famers on the field at halftime, and the old guy next to you asks who they are. :roll:

My old friend Dave's dad said it best I think, "getting old is not for wimps".

:lol: I need some brotherly advice. I'm not bald yet, but I'm thinning out fast. My question is:

When you use more soap on your forehead and less shampoo on your head . . . do you still need conditioner?

Telephone numbers didn't have area codes, they started with central office names. And telephones came in any color you wanted, as long as it was black bakelite. And had metal dials.

Electric clocks had indicators to let you know the power had been off.

That little red circle was nothing more than a piece of metal that an electro-magnet allowed to drop if the power went off.

Addresses had a postal code, typically they became the last 2 digits of a zip code.

Cheers

I remember using a Marconi camera and headphones made from Bakelite with a fabric headband, and a fabric wrapped cord. They were once common amongst radio operators and telegraphers. As a kid, my Dad brought me to meet a railroad telegrapher who, believe it or not, could take a message and send another at the same time; but, I’ve never seen a clock like that before, vinyl. Pretty cool.

You know you're getting old when kids start saying you look older than Jesus Christ .

You know you’re getting old when there’s bikini babes on the deck that speeds by and you shout, “Wow! Look at that gorgeous boat!”
