2. In a hostage situation you are likely to be released first.
3. No one expects you to run--anywhere.
4. People call at 9 pm and ask, did I wake you?
5. People no longer view you as a hypochondriac.
6. There is nothing left to learn the hard way.
7. Things you buy now won't wear out.
8. You can eat supper at 4 pm..
9. You can live without sex but not your glasses..
10. You get into heated arguments about pension plans.
11. You no longer think of speed limits as a challenge.
12. You quit trying to hold your stomach in no matter who walks into the room.
13. You sing along with elevator music.
14.. Your eyes won't get much worse.
15 . Your investment in health insurance is finally beginning to pay off.
16. Your joints are more accurate meteorologists than the national weather service.
17. Your secrets are safe with your friends because they
can't remember them either.
18. Your supply of brain cells is finally down to manageable size.
19.. You can't remember who sent you this list.
And you notice these are all in Big Print for your convenience.
And Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative on the same night.

Although, I am only 24 years old. I have however lived with my aunt and uncle before and remember quite a few of those things be brought up. To say the least, my aunt is a great weather forecaster

And the junkmen

KIDS, you will think differently when you get here.

That is a sheer sign of someone at peace with their life, and I give them *props*

I realized I was getting older when:
1) They stopped asking for ID when I bought alcohol.
2) College kids started calling me "sir".
3) I started to refer to all new music as "noise".
Your problem is not technology. The problem is YOU. You lack the will to change...You treat this planet as you treat each other. - Klaatu

I will do you, let's see, goofy, wacky, and to the left side of the bell curve. -Ktoyou
I'm white. I'm not black. I can't convert to being black. It doesn't matter how much I want to become black. I could listen to rap and date fat white women all day; for all that, I'll still remain white.- Traditio
