It's pretty cool when a kid you coached in Little League or Pop Warner football buys you a beer.

Loud music pisses you off.

When you buy slip on shoes with velcro so you don't have to bend down and tie your shoes

Yeah I hear that from my daughter all the time......."If it's too loud, you're too old."

When you consider ZZ Top, Moody Blues and the Rolling Stones to be classical music.

JaKaacH · 02-14-2009, 07:16 PM

.... Cale Yarborough use to be your favorite stock car driver.

When your path from the bed to the bathroom in the morning not only sounds painful but actually is.

and for the first time I used the phase " about 10 years ago " .scary

...the first NHL game you attended was a Kansas City Scouts game.

when you ask the gf is she's not busy, would you mind plucking the gray hairs

keep the grays or go bald

When your birth year falls inside the range of those cheesy funeral-insurance infomercials ("If you were born between 1923 and 1963, then you need to call ...") Dude, that's a big freakin' spread!

When you meet a coworker from your same alma mater--but who wasn't even born yet when you graduated.

When you can't finish watching a DVD movie without falling asleep.

When your wife greets you with an icepack and a beer in the evening, and you're not sure which you are happier to see.

When you're flipping channels and pause for more than 15 seconds on Wheel of Fortune. Just to see if you can solve the puzzle. And then you get sucked in for half an hour...

And you can remember when contestants actually went "shopping" with their winnings on that show.

When I looked at the prices of 69 at Camero SS that was $3000 when I was 16, but they are now $30,000.

I am an Insurance agent, and it hit me when I started quoting people that were born when I graduated high school.

When I look in the mirror, and my hairline is not what I used to be.

When I got my first real job selling computers they were 386's, and a 256mb hard drive was huge.

When I started driving gas was $.89 a gallon.

Baseball players weren't all juiced up, and the good golf players were a little chubby.

People held doors open for other people, and said please and thank you.

Our telepone when I was a kid was a party line.

I remember when we got an IBM PC with an 8088 processor in the engineering department I was working in when they came out.

You quit trying to hold your stomach in, no matter who walks into the room.

You sing along with the elevator music.

"Getting a little action" means you don't need to take a laxative.

....when you:

a) Discover you have to take your glasses off to see details up close.

b) Grey hairs.

ENJOY LIFE IN YOUR 20'S! IT'S OVER FASTER THAN YOU THINK!

I heard a rumor that it happened to a girl when she was only 27. Not that I would know anything about that
