You Know You Are Old When

I just asked a coworker if he knew who Herb Albert and the Tijuana Brass were?

He started chuckling and said "No hahaha." Thought I was messing with him.

The story from 2012. Great read...

Herb Alpert’s ‘Whipped Cream Lady’ now 76, living in Longview and looking back

The Whipped Cream Lady who is the model on the memorable LP cover of the 1965 Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass' "Whipped Cream & Other Delights" is 76 now and living in Longview. Dolores Erickson wants to tell all...

OK, now I'm feeling older. That album cover was scandalous for its time. Today, she's overdressed!

That album was done in 1965.

My grandmother came to America in the early 1900's. Per my own mother, my Grandmother thought Elvis Presley was the Devil himself per the way he (Elvis) would move his body.

So, if you have a teenage daughter and she dresses like a
s l u t (ironic, that word is not allowed here) for prom showing T&A, who am I to judge you as a parent?

Last comment was pertaining to a girl my one boy dated. Her grandfather was a successful minister making money selling God. Rule was that my boy and her daughter could not hold hands because it was inappropriate in her mothers eyes, BUT the way she let her daughter dressed was inappropriate to both my wife and myself.

Never paid any attention to it and then one day I realized the whipped cream is all she was wearing...

Work mornings I'm in the Surgery Lobby area about 4:30 am where doors officially open at 5:30 am.

Most mornings I turn on the waiting area flat screen with assorted music videos on You Tube.

The patients really enjoy it... my co worker can't stand it... but the tv and music comes direct from admin...

Everything from Glenn Miller, Al Marino Archie's, Barry White, Gi Gi De Lana, Salina to Shaggy It wasn't me...

Lots of compliments...

Music tailored to my audience...

Our local 7-11 plays opera outside.... music tailored to repel a specific audience.

Seems to be effective. Rarely anyone loitering around there.

Everything from Glenn Miller,

My 19 year old likes Glenn Miller as much as I do, and that's from my dad. Sorry, can't go wrong with Glenn Miller.

Tommy Dorsey anyone? LOL

I tend to prefer Steve over Glenn......
