You know you are over the hill when .....
- You were once bowled over by the technological excellence of such products as Atari, IntelliVision, TelStar and Coleco.
- You remember the premier of MTV -- or worse, you remember "Friday Night Videos."
- You and your friends ever discussed having a reunion at the end of the century.
- A predominant color in your childhood photos is plaid.
- You rode in the back of the station wagon facing the cars behind you.
- Schoolhouse Rock played a HUGE part in how you learned things like grammar, math and history.
- The age-old question "Where's the beef?" still makes you laugh.
- You had a crush on Ted from "Love Boat," Gage from "Emergency," or Ponch from "CHIPS."
- Your current employment has absolutely nothing to do with your college major.
- You remember trying to guess which episode of "The Brady Bunch" it was by the first scene.
- You know who shot J.R.
- You were unsure if Diet Coke would ever catch on.
- "All skate, change directions" means something to you.
- You remember when your cable TV box had a sliding selector switch... and your "cable remote" was connected to the TV by CORD!
- Your jaw would ache by the time you finished one of those brick-sized packages of Bazooka.
- You remember Bo and Luke Duke, Daisy, Boss Hogg, or Sheriff Roscoe's full name was.
- Your parents paid $2,000 for a top-loading VCR that was almost the size of a coffee table.
- You remember having a rotary phone.
- And lastly, I'll make a song stick in your head for the rest of the day: ...you actually remember the words to the theme song of "The Greatest American Hero." ("BELIEVE IT OR NOT, I'M WALKIN' ON AIR...I NEVER THOUGHT I COULD FEEL SO FREE-EE-EE...")
