You know your getting older when.......

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.
