When your grandchildren ask if color TV was invented yet when you were their age

 

AND YOU TELL THEM ,NO!

 

My folks used to take me to a friends house to watch Lawrence Welk. My father liked the music. I didn't see a complete TV show (other than LW) until I went to college.

Funny. Chrysler "invented" the minivan (in 1984, 34 years after VW introduced the Microbus :rolleyes:) because station wagons were uncool middle-class suburbian, and now "crossovers" are replacing minivans because they're uncool middle-class suburbian.

 

That is 100% correct. VW made a bus and Chrysler made a van. :blink: Vans don't catch on fire as much. -_-

When people ask me "How long have you been cowboy shooting?" I always have to answer "Since we were doing it for real."

When I told my grand daughter to git me something out of the ice box. She said,"I don't see an ice box, Papa. Is it behind the refrigerator?.

 

When I bought a full tank of gas for my Chevy pickup, and it cost more that I paid for my first truck! Seriously. 40 dollars for a 1928 Model A with a wooden bed, in 1955.

 

When I tell my wife I got lucky today, and she knows I got a nap.

 

When a secretary at work asked me, "Now, who was Jimmy Doolittle?"

 

 

But after all of these years I have learned something: The reason we Baptists were so dead set against immoral sex, robbery, drunkenness, and gambling, is ......... any one of those could lead to dancing!

The list below is not original from me but I received them in an email....thought they were pretty good so I thought I'd share them :

 

1. You and your teeth don't sleep together.

 

2. Your try to straighten out the wrinkles in your socks and discover you aren't wearing any.

 

3. At the breakfast table you hear snap, crackle, pop and you're not eating cereal.

 

4. Your back goes out, but you stay home.

 

5. When you wake up looking like your driver's license picture.

 

6. It takes two tries to get up from the couch.

 

7. When your idea of a night out is sitting on the patio.

 

8. When happy hour is a nap.

 

9. When you're on vacation, and your ENERGY runs out before your money does.

 

10. When you say something to your kids that your mother said to you, and you always hated it.

 

11. When all you want for your birthday is to not be reminded of your age.

 

12. When you step off a curb and look down one more time to make sure the street is still there.

 

13. Your idea of weight lifting is standing up.

 

14. It takes longer to rest than it did to get tired.

 

15. Your memory is shorter and your complaining lasts longer.

 

16. Your address book has mostly names that start with Dr.

 

17. You sit in a rocking chair and can't get it going.

 

18. The pharmacist has become your new best friend.

 

19. Getting "lucky" means you found your car in the parking lot.

 

20. The twinkle in your eye is merely a reflection from the sun on your bifocals.

 

21. It takes twice as long to look half as good.

 

22. Everything hurts, and what doesn't hurt - doesn't work.

 

23. You look for your glasses for half an hour, and they were on your head the whole time.

 

24. You sink your teeth into a steak - and they stay there.

 

25. You give up all your bad habits and still don't feel good.

 

26. You have more patience, but it is actually that you just don't care anymore.

 

27. You finally get your head together and your body starts falling apart.

 

28. You wonder how you could be over the hill when you don't even remember being on top of it.

when I walk by a mirror and I see my older sister and think, "when did she get here and when did she decide to be a blonde?"

 

when they give me my school ID badge and I think, "who is that old woman and why do they keep insisting it's me?"

You are obviously refering to someone else CL. Neither of those situations could possibly be about you.

 

When when you go to the kitchen to refill your water glass & leave it on the refrigerator ice dispenser when you go back into the family room.
