Hi everyone:

Got this in my mailbox and figured we could all use a little humor.....


=========BEGIN PASTED MESSAGE============
Thought you'd get a kick out of this! I did. Kat

SIGNS 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 emails you back from his bedroom, "What's for dinner?"

4. Your daughter sells Girl Scout Cookies via her web site.

5. You chat several times a day with a stranger from South
Africa, but you haven't spoken with your next door neighbor
this year.

6. You check the ingredients on a can of chicken noodle soup
to see if it contains Echinacea.

7. Your grandmother asks you to send her a JPEG file of your
newborn so she can create a screen saver.

8. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone
to see if anyone is home.

9. Every commercial on television has a web-site address at
the bottom of the screen.

10. You buy a computer and 6 months later it is out of
date and now sells for half the price you paid.

11. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you
didn't have the first 20 or 30 years of your life, is
cause for panic and turning around to go get it.

12. Using real money, instead of credit or debit, to make
a purchase would be a hassle and take planning.

13. Cleaning up the dining room means getting the fast
food bags out of the back seat of your car.

14. Your reason for not staying in touch with family is
that they do not have e-mail addresses.

15. You consider second-day air delivery painfully slow.

16. Your dining room table is now your flat filing cabinet.

17. Your idea of being organized is multiple-colored
Post-it notes.

18. You hear most of your jokes via e-mail instead of
in person.

19. You get an extra phone line (or a ADSL/cable modem)
so you can get phone calls.

20. You disconnect from the Internet and get this awful
feeling, as if you just pulled the plug on a loved one.

21. You get up in morning and go online before getting
your coffee.

22. You wake up at 2 am to go to the bathroom and check
your E-mail on your way back to bed.

23. You start tilting your head sideways to smile. :)

24. You're reading this.

25. Even worse; you're going to forward it to someone else

===========END PASTED MESSAGE===========

I added the following ones in addition.... :-)

For those of us who are creating worlds for 3D chatting, there's this
one....

26. You claim to live in a town which the Post Office can't even find
because the town doesn't even exist in real life

And for those of us who listen to or run our own online radio stations,
there are these ones....

27. Your favorite radio station which you listen to at work can't be found
on the local radio dial.

28. You try to tune into your favorite online radio station with your car
radio, only to realize that it only receives AM or FM stations and XM if you
have that feature.

===========================================

Just figured I'd throw in a little humor. Flame me if ya want. I don't
care.

Cheers :-)

Maybe it belongs in general discussion, but thanks for the levity. I
answered "yes" to way too many of these.

Here's a common one for me:

You know you live in the year 2002 when you say LOL to someone instead of
laughing.
