YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2006 when...
1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.
2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
3. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.
6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.
7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen.
8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and you turn around to go and get it.
10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your coffee.
11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. : )
12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.
13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this message.
14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.
15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list.
AND NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.
OK, now you can get back to your day, just wanted to share that with everyone!! Have a GREAT day!

What are we coming to?? What will 2007 bring? ;)
Hi Jen!
OK, Doug. She's not posting anything new. It's time to take over the comments. ;) [I admit a few on her list made me chuckle.]
My subversive question:
What technology we now "can't live without" has been invented since you graduated from HS? (If you're young, change that to your lifetime.)
Old Lutheran Humor TAKES OVER
Thoughts on a Delicacy from Ole & Sven
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The moment every traveler lives for is the native dinner where,
throwing caution to the wind and plunging into a local delicacy
which ought by rights to be disgusting, one discovers that it is not only delicious but that it also contradicts a previously held
prejudice about food, that it expands ones culinary horizons to
include surprising new smells, tastes, and textures.
Lutefisk is not such a dish. Lutefisk is instead pretty much what you'd expect of jellied cod; it is a foul and odiferous goo, whose gluttonous texture and rancid oily taste are locked in spirited competition to see which can be the more responsible for
rendering the whole completely inedible. How to describe that
first bite? It’s a bit like describing passing a kidney stone to the uninitiated. If you are talking to someone else who has lived through the experience, a nod will suffice to acknowledge your shared pain, but to explain it to the person who has not been
there, mere words seem inadequate to the task.
Tanks Ole for a gut one, Ya!!!
ur frent, Sven
Sven,
Dat u???
House da cows ant big cheese.

NEW POST!!
Doug Wilcox mentioning using "Garlic & Herb" instead of "It's Not Butter Spray" reminds me of the night my father was brushing his teeth and he used the BenGay instead of toothpaste.
I guess the stuff really burns when used incorrectly.
Ah yes, memories.
