That reminds me. Mrs CCU had a milestone birthday recently, and we had our neighbors over to celebrate. One of the kids asked how old she was. She told him that we were older than Google. You could see the wheels turn before the kids gave up trying to figure that out.

I can see some Gen Xers heads blowing up at that one too, but seeing current teen’s heads blow up would be funny too.

I’ve got kids that work for me who were born after 9-11.

There was a time when it was strange for people to meet younger people that were not alive for Pearl Harbor. Now, you only see this sometimes as a light gray note on a calendar on December 7. I wonder how much further we need to go before 9/11 becomes light gray text on a calendar and many people won’t even notice.

NSFW - My younger (60ish) sister with a bit of an irrevereant sense of humor sent this to me and I laughed so hard I thought I’d better post it here to provide a good laugh to a group that can always use one.
Enjoy!

Made me LOL, and get Mrs CCU to see what made me LOL. She wasn’t as amused as me, but she did smile and shake her head.

Didn’t want to post this one on Easter… but Hefner was such a ridiculous curve ball to American culture:
