Have a laugh - it's good for something but I can't remember what. I received this in an email today and thought it worth passing along. I don't know who the original Author is, but thanks anyway. R.P.BenDedek

Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things.

The people who are starting university this year were born in 1992.

They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.

Their lifetime has always included AIDS.

Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic.

The CD was introduced 3 years before they were born.

They have always had an answering machine

They have always had cable.

They cannot fathom not having a remote control.

Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.

They never took a swim and thought about Jaws.

They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are.

They don't know who Mork was or where he was from.

They do not care who shot J. R. and have no idea who J. R. even is.

They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.

Do you feel old yet? Pass this on to the other old fogies on your list.

It is good to have friends who know about these things and are still alive and kicking!
