...You remember Larry King when he was a cub reporter for the Miami Herald 

...You’re disappointed that the Office Pop Machine stopped selling Grape NeHi 

...You find yourself constantly explaining to the current writers what a typewriter was 

...You go through tubes of Ben-Gay faster than tubes of Brylcream. 

...You had ink wells in your elementary school desk 

...You ran on the field and ripped up sod after the Tigers won the Pennant – in 1968!! 

...You think the Wii is the #5 dish at Wing Lee’s Chop Suey Your first car was a 1961 Corvair 

...It takes you 10 minutes to stand upright when you get up from the editing desk.

...You think FaceBook is the book of Mug Shots at the Grand Rapids Police Department. 

...You have a dish of candy on your desk with Mary Janes and Squirrels in it. 

...You mention you are going to ride your bike into work and you notice people starting an office pool. 

...You have a Rolodex that has phone numbers that start with words like Belvedere-84201
