Came across this and thought we need a little humor during out frequent breaks from studying......we need MORE breaks than the youngens.....you know what I mean

Just in case you weren't feeling too old today, this will certainly change things.

The people who are starting college this fall across the nation were born in 1987 . They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.

Their lifetime has always included AIDS.

The CD was introduced the year they were born.

They have always had an answering machine

They have always had cable.

Jay Leno has always been on the Tonight Show.

Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.

They never took a swim and thought about Jaws!

They don't know who Mork was or where he was from

They never heard: "Where's the Beef?", "I'd walk a mile for a Camel", or "de plane Boss, de plane".

McDonald's never came in Styrofoam containers.

They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter

Yeah, AussiePupOwner,

LOL....I have a beagle and he got inot chocolate X-mas ornaments. It never caused a problem for him even though I was out of my mind worrying, I had called the vet immediately after I got home and discovered that he'd eaten them. I guess beagles are like garbage disposables.....they eat and can tolerate anything......his favorite are treasures out of the cat box

I absolutely adore beagles........stubborn little dogs, but so loving and great with kids! We got ours 10 years ago (well it was my son's dog who is now 22 and lives in FL)

Never had a cuter puppy than this guy. He is tri- colored.

He is Texas size: 40 pounds!!!!!! The vet says he is not really fat, just thick. I could talk about him forever, so many hilarious stories to tell.

Never forget when he stole a small can of Fancy Feast catfood. He wouldn't give it back and we thought he'd swallow the whole thing.....he had punctured holes in the can with his teeth. My husband chased the dog in and out of the house, over the sofa....it went on and on and he eventyally wrestled that little stinker to the ground and was able to pry the can out of his mouth. Once he stole pork roast and a package of hamburger and ran off with it.

We have another dog and 3 cats, too.

We had one steal a huge summer sausage off a picnic table once...lol That was th' funniest thing watchin' that little dog carryin' it, runnin' up the hill with her short little legs.

They are funny dogs.

I remember the Nestea plunge....but I liked singing "Be a Pepper, Drink Dr. Pepper", and "Have a Coke and a smile...Makes you feel good." :balloons:

Those Dr. Pepper adds have gotten to my husband because he is addicted to it, we even went to the Dr. Pepper museum in Waco and he bought a Dr. Pepper babybottle for our baby that we were expecting at the time :lol2:
