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

Do you feel old yet? Pass this on to the other old fogies on your list. Notice the larger type, that's for those of you who have trouble reading...

:rolf: Loved it!!

....now I gotta go find my cane & drink some prune juice....

that's fun!! Love it!

:lol: I wasn't even born in 1975 :tease:

Neither was I but I still understood it all..I'm not that young!!

I got it too....Just rubbing in the fact to the old fogies here that I wasn't even a twinkle in my daddy's eye in 1975 :cheeky:

:lol: My mom was eleven years old in 1975...

But I do TOO know who Mork is, and I know how to use a typewriter! We didn't have cable until I was 13, and I refuse to eat microwaved popcorn. Unless I'm really really hungry.

So there :P

I knew pretty much all of that and I was born in 1975. :lol:

Y'all make me feel so OLD!!!!!

You should :) You're about the same age as my parents :lol:

j/k...wisdom comes with age and all that :thumbsup:

I'm with you Clay and anymore of those "I wasn't even born in 1975" comments from you young 'uns and I'm coming after you with my frypan!!

:lena:

get this--I'm 27 and I've NEVER had cable! except for when I lived on campus, then I didn't have a TV!
