skelebone: I don't necessarily have any overt physical feelings of it yet, but whenever I look at the Playmate of the Month and she's younger than I am (or worse, was born while I was in grade school) I do feel older. And that kind of stuff will only get worse, because I'm not that old yet. I was recently at a concert where the audience was mainly 15-18 year old girls, and before the main act came on (The Killers) they started to play "Flash" by Queen. I was singing and rocking along, and all the girls just looked puzzled. My boss also relates a similar story from the 1970s. He was working in the record store and a young woman came in and was looking at records. She came across a Beatles LP and remarked "I didn't know Paul McCartney was in a band before Wings."
