That you, Betty? 
(I’m getting increasingly worried that references like these will fly right over the head of the whippersnappers, what with a lot of them having been born in the 80’s and all. I’m only 30, dammit!)
What kind of walker are you using, Al? My legs are 3 years older than yours, and I’m getting a little creaky these days.
I gots me one of them electric scooters, with accompanying pants that you have to pull up all the way into your armpits. I also go about saying stupid stuff like “the winters were colder, back in the old days”.
Eh, wazzat?? Willya speak up? My ears aren’t what they used to be. Kids these days. We didn’t even HAVE winters when I was young.
(That being said, now I have Paul Simon in my ear and the vision of RTFirefly, Ferret Herder and Coldfire playing the trombone.)
I keep yelling “You kids get off my lawn!” and waving my umbrella threateningly. Unfortunately, my lawn happens to be a golf course - but you should see them motor away on those little carts - put the fear of God in 'em, I say!

Nonsense. You’ll find that every 78-83 baby (range picked at random) loves that album, because our parents all bought and played it when we were old enough to remember things, but young enough to not be disgusted with our parents’ taste.
Jesus Built my Hotrod.
Ayup. Myrr21 is exactly right; I was born in the early part of that span. And we sang that damn song in choir, anyway.
Didn’t make any damn sense in the 70s either.
I remember some bathroom graffiti from a restaurant I used to work in –
Jesus es mi avion
(underneath:)
Jesus is my Evian?
(underneath:)
Jesus wears Avon?
What an odd thread to return to life …
That having been said, now I too have vision of RTFirefly, Ferret Herder and Coldfire playing the trombone … all three of them, but one trombone … :dubious:
I baking your goods.
That’s amazing, considering Graceland was released in 1986.

Is it one of those foldable cocktail umbrellas?
Jerry Lee Lewis was the Antichrist.
All your baked goods are belong to us!
Badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger badger mushroom mushroom!
This made Threadspotting!?
I know, Homebrew. I mean, I’ve made threads that are far better. This one was a result of not taking my dexedrine, drinking too much Dr. Pepper, and staying up too late.
The Straight Dope works in mysterious ways.
Texarcana…great REM song.
Baked goods containing Dr. Pepper as the main ingredient make the baby Jesus cry.
Every time a stupid question is asked, a baby kitten dies.
Are we there yet?
Ask Alice…I think she’ll know…
What’s the frequency, Gadfly?
Huh?
TELL ME!
