If I Have to Feel Old, I'm Taking YOU With Me!

(From Auntie J)... I just LOVE stuff like this because it puts things in perspective...

Each year the staff at Beloit College in Wisconsin puts together a list to try to give the faculty a sense of the mindset of this year's incoming freshmen. Here's this year's list:
  •     The people who are starting college this fall across the nation 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 2 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.
  •     Jay Leno has always been on the Tonight Show.
  •     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 never heard: "Where's the Beef?", "I'd walk a mile for a Camel", or "de plane, Boss, de plane.."
  •     They do not care who shot J. R. and have no idea who J. R. even is.
  •     McDonald's never came in Styrofoam containers.
  •     They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.

    Do you feel old yet? Have a nice day!!!!! It is good to have friends who know about these things and are still alive and kicking!!!!
