You know you're getting old when ...

While sitting in a restaurant the other day where folks can order beer if they so choose, I noticed the sign that informs folks they can't buy beer if they were born after July whatever, 1986.

July 1986. What? You know you're old when people who were BORN when you were in high school are now old enough to buy alcohol. Heck, I'm old enough to have fathered a child old enough to buy alcohol ... providing, of course, that the cute blonde sophomore who sat in front of me in Mrs. Jones' science class would have ever consented to going out with and, subsequently, falling in love with me. The fact that she wouldn't even talk to me put a hurdle in those plans.
