EVIDENCE YOU LIVE IN THE YEAR 2002
1. You just tried to enter your password on the microwave.
2. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.
3. You call your son's beeper to let him know it's time to eat. He
e-mails you back from his bedroom, "What's for dinner?"
4. You chat several times a day with a stranger from South Africa,
but you haven't spoken with your next-door neighbor yet this year.
5. Your grandmother asks you to send her a JPEG file of your newborn so
she can create a new screen saver.
6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see
if anyone is home.
7. You buy a computer and 6 months later it's out of date and now
sells for half the price you paid.
8. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have
the first 20 or 30 or 40 years of your life, is cause for panic and
turning around to go get it.
9. Using real money, instead of credit or debit, to make a purchase
would be a hassle and takes planning.
10. Your reason for not staying in touch with family is that they
don't have e-mail addresses.
11. Your dining room table is now your flat filing cabinet.
12. Your idea of being organized is multiple-colored Post-it notes.
13. You hear most of your jokes via e-mail instead of in person.
14. You get an extra phone line so you can get phone calls.
15. You're thinking how true all of this is.
16. Even worse, you're probably going to forward it to someone else.
And yes, I've just forwarded this to you!
