If being out of it means not spending hours a day on a social networking site instead of actually socializing with people, listening to Lil Wayne and Beyonce while not being able to identify a Zeppelin or Stones song……then I’m perfectly comfortable with prematurely being “out of it”
“eeks – is that what I have to look forward to ? ;)”
You betcha! But it creeps in slowly until one day when you are sitting with some younger people and you come to the HORRIFIC realization…that you are now officially old and a little out of it! : P
“I also hate people but there have been times I’ve been fascinated with the lives of others.”
Hence the success of the internet and historical biographies! We can remain interested yet at ‘a remove’.
Isn’t it interesting that all of the older musicians that would NEVER have let their music be in a beer, car or whatever ad have ‘sold out’ to ads and tv shows. it still surprises me.
I think it’s crazy I have to explain to my coworkers that there is actually a band called “The Who” who made a bunch of great songs – and were around much before they turned up as theme songs for the CSI shows – yet I’m supposed to know who Chris Brown is?!

wow – am really shocked at all the peeps saying they didn’t even know who Chris Brown/Rhianna were
eeks – is that what I have to look forward to ? 😉
Twitter is way overrated.
I didn’t know who Chris brown or Rihanna was until this whole abuse thing. I wouldn’t kick Chris brown outta bed though.

hahaha. I don’t think we’re nuts cobblehiller. it’s everyone else 😉

DH, I still have no idea who Chris Brown is or why I should care! I did know who Rihanna was.
And I am very nearly 50.
