Problem is, Cathy, you're a 'tweener.

Too young to remember burlesque, but too old to......whoops! I'm certainly not going there.

But here's another one you're too young for:

Have you taken a bath, lately?
Why, is one missing?

I had to edit this because I had a "blonde moment" and your joke went right over my head about a bath..LOL I wanted to know why you would be asking if I'd taken a bath lately!!!

By the way that is a really terrible joke man, I know now why I wasn't born in those days, I would've been bored terrible, just terrible!!! Gosh.................. :)

Last time I remember that was in a soda fountain where they still served them and I always wanted double cherries. Geez! I'm older than .......! :(

The soda fountains were great!

Loved them!

Oh - all the wonderful things you young-uns are missing in life.

Keep your blackberries, blue tooth, cell phones, microwaves - I'd love to go back to those days!

Speaking of which, mama... Saw an interesting article on high-powered celebs who ashew modern-day technology and opt-out of contemporary gadgets, unlike MOST of civilization these days. The list of well-known folks who don't "do" computers, blackberries, cell phones, ipods, etc. was actually staggering!

I will admit that about ten years ago as a chef at resorts I honestly believed I might be able to live out my whole entire life with ZERO computer knowledge. Afterall, the most hi-tech gizmo I had played with to date had been a cuisinart & a behr mixer! Then one day I found myself employed by an outfit where everything was done on a computer from staff-scheduling and payroll, to menu-writing, food ordering and inter-company e-mailing. I learned QUICK but let me tell you, as a 30 year old who didn't even type it was the most long & difficult professional transition of my career!

To date, believe it or not I STILL have NEVER owned a cell phone, ipod or blackberry. I've never sent or received a text message... Because my hearing is slightly deficient sometimes, headphones for any gadget are a complete bothersome nuisance... I'm still largely illiterate technology-wise, though I cannot today imagine life without my Dell desktop & laptop!
