Oldie, goldie...
1. You just tried to enter your password on the microwave.
2. You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of three.
3. You SMS your son to let him know it's time to eat. He emails 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 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. Every commercial on television has a web-site address at the bottom of the
screen.
9. You buy a computer and 6 months later it is out of date and now sells for
half the price you paid.
10. Leaving the house without your cell phone, which you didn't have the first
20 to 40 years of your life, is cause for panic and turning around to go get it.
11. Using real money, instead of credit or debit, to make a purchase would be a
hassle and take planning.
12. Cleaning up the dining room means getting the fast food bags out of the back
seat of your car.
13. Your reason for not staying in touch with family is that they do not have
e-mail addresses.
14. You consider second-day air delivery painfully slow.
15. Your dining room table is now your flat filing cabinet.
16. Your idea of being organized is multiple-colored Post-it notes.
17. You hear most of your jokes via e-mail instead of in person.
18. You get an extra phone line (or a DSL/cable modem) so you can get phone calls.
19. You get up in the morning and go online before getting your coffee.
20. You wake up at 2 am to go to the bathroom and check your E-mail on your way
back to bed.
21. You're reading this.
22. Even worse; you're going to forward it to someone else.
