YOU KNOW YOU ARE IN 2003 WHEN ............. 1. Your reason for not
staying in touch with family is because they do not have e-mail
addresses.
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 e-mails 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 yet 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computer and 6 months later it is out of date and now sells for half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 now
a cause for panic and you turn around to go get it.
12. Using real
money, instead of credit or debit, to make a purchase would be a
hassle and takes planning.
13. Cleaning up the dining room means
getting the fast food bags out of the back seat of your car.
14.
You just tried to enter your password on the microwave.
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 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 the morning and go on-line
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.
(like I did)

So I ask my wife last night what date it is. She begins flipping channels on the TV to get to the directory, while also searching about for her date device or watch. I point out she is reading the Sunday paper, and could just look on it, which is why I asked her. :D
