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 1986.
They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.
-Their lifetime has always included AIDS.
-Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic.
-The CD was introduced the year they were born.
-They have always had an answering machine.
-They have always had cable.
-They cannot fathom not having a remote control.
-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 can't imagine what hard contact lenses are!
-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".
-They do not care who shot J. R. and have no idea who J. R. even is.
-McDonald's never came in Styrofoam containers.
-They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.
