When your prescriptions run out, and you don't really care.

When you've worn out your Lazy Boy recliner.

I can now hide my own Easter Eggs! My barber lady charges me the same amount as all the other customers and it takes her a fraction of the time to cut my hair. When I complained and she told me it was a finders fee!

When your address book has mostly names that start with Dr.
Trust me on this, you can't beat Lazy Boy...we tried, you can spend twice the money for sure but it still ain't a Lazy Boy. I wore out a more expensive recliner, it finally would not keep the legs up. We looked at everything and Lazy Boy had a taller back and more comfortable system than anything else. They still seem to be a little cheaply upholstered but I think I can wear this one out before I'm ready for the ole dirt nap.

When you automatically click on all the "remember when" and "you know you're getting old" posts.
When you've gone from explaining what a fax is to explaining what a fax was.

Nevada Ed, you jostled my memory. It was Bullards Bar in the Grass Valley area, 1972. I had just moved from Az. and visited an old college roommate who lived in Nevada City. Old memories.

I guess this takes a little explaining.
I went to opening day of the 1967 World Series - Red Sox vs Cardinals. The "Impossible Dream" season. I remember watch Joe Kennedy accompanied by his two sons being brought down to the 1st base seats. My father told me about the 1946 World Series (Sox vs Cardinals) and how Johnny Pesky, Bobby Doerr, Red Schoendienst & a few others played in the series.
"That was 20 years ago. These old guys - they were always old guys. Never actually played". I couldn't see them as anything else.
Fast forward about 40 years, watching a game with a friend's kid and Jim Fregosi pops up on the screen. "That's Jim Fregosi" I said "He used to play shortstop for the Angels".
Kid had the same look on his face as I did at the '67 series opener.

You know you're getting old when you realize you've joined the Smith & Wesson Forum.
