In the IRC we were talking about Russian and I said, "But if he speaks Russian he can make Jamie Lee Curtis get all horny."

Someone didn't get the reference to the "old" movie. I looked it up on IMDB and..."A Fish Called Wanda" was made 21 years ago.

Has it really been that long?





I'm so old.

Whoever didn't get it needs to be beaten until he/she goes to see it...

Jokes about Dave:

He was an early investor in Apple... the fruit.
He actually robbed Peter to pay Paul.
He was a fluffer for the Kama Sutra.
He got a senior citizen discount to see Birth of a Nation.
His social security number is 9.
He's the third drawing from the left on the evolutionary chart.
He remembers the mini-mall they tore down to build Stonehenge.
He won't give his real age because he pre-dates counting.
He remembers the best thing BEFORE sliced bread.
Cleopatra dumped him for a younger man.
He remembers when Helen of Troy's face had only launched a couple of ships.
His favorite hobby: Respiration.
He majored in Spanish. Not the language, the Inquisition.
Social life: Not Speed Dating -- carbon dating.

First job: a papyrus route.

He's so old he remembers when:

If you looked green around the gills you REALLY did.
Old Faithful was new and unreliable.
Tuesday was hump day.
Incest was just called "sex."
There was only one way to skin a cat.
In school Geology was called Current Events.
The Twin Cities were Sodom and Gomorrah.
Amphibians were just called "show-offs."

I can't believe they didn't know that movie! I'm with alien, it's a classic; and your comment was funny! We love our old Dave, and his synthetic hips.

I've eaten a Marathon candy bar fast.
I enjoyed my morning bowl of Buc-Wheats.
I remember tetraethyl lead, rotary dial phones, and exchanges that were letters.

Most of all, I remember being able to purchase chemicals from the corner store without having to show ID, license, background check, nor registration.

Ahh, the good ol' days.

When I was a kid the town I lived in didn't have enough phone lines to let each household have their own phones. So everyone was on a "party line". Your phone had a special ring to know it was for you but it rang at every house that had the phone line. We were on a party line with 3 or 4 other houses. One of them belonged to my grandmother, who would pick up the phone regardless of who it was for and listen to the conversation.

I remember only dialing the last 4 numbers if the phone was in your exchange. Now I have to dial all 10 digits of a phone number.

Another you know when you are old...

You remember when your parents bought their first microwave oven. mmmm.... microwave bacon.

My parents tell me the days of only having one telephone on the block, that took the calls for everyone.

My parents kept their rotary phone for a long time. AT&T wanted to charge to switch you to tone dialing. So my parents refused. Their plan was to wait them out. And eventually they got tired of having legacy equipment out there, and switched them over for free.

That always bugged me on movies. "Oh that's the Sheriff's ring!"

A Fish Called Wanda isn't that old. Sheesh.

You know you're old when they start remaking movies you thought of as classics from when you were young (I'm looking at YOU "Karate Kid").

You're even older when they remake movies that were classics from when you were an adult.
