    Whats your "Crap I'm not a kid anymore." moment?

    I'd say I knew I was old when they started referring to the music I listened to in High School as Classic Rock! At least they didn't say "THE OLDIES" Then again, it could have been the day the Smithsonian Institute knocked on my door and asked if they could use me to Carbon date fossils.
