You might be getting older if ...

  1. You remember when computers came with manuals.
  2. You still think that 'Cool' is the correct word for 'Cool'
  3. You still call it 'Weed'.
  4. You remember when computers didn't come with mice.
  5. You think 'Wheels' come on cars.
  6. You have ever used the term 'Punk-Ass Kids'.
  7. You remember the 'Alien' from the prime-co ads.
  8. You remember when '14.4kbps' was damn fast.
  9. You know what 'Z-Modem' is without googling it.
  10. You remember when the term 'Beta' applied to a video tape.

If the above statements apply to you then you are probably in the same generation as myself. 

We were the last generation to be born into a world that did not have computers everywhere.  We were just coming into our own when the computer revolution started.  We saw the Internet born, and BBS systems die.  We used DOS, OS/2, and Windows 3.x.  We played with the NES, the Turbo Grafix 16, and the Sega Genesis.  We listened to Cassette Tapes, and remember when CD's were the great new thing.

This is a tribute to all of you, because we saw it all happen.  We were there .... man  And kids today don't know a damn thing about any of it.  The defining moments in their lives will include RIAA lawsuits, the death of 'Fair Use', Designer Drugs, the war on Terror, $4.00 gas prices, and Plazma Tv's.

if you ask me, we got the better deal.
