I'm so old I Remember when:

I'm remembering people talking on phones as large as half a shoe box with an antenna sticking out one end.

I'm so old I remember when portable phones were heavier than a nice camera and couldn't take photos.

You mean the phones that were just a tad smaller than military grade walk-in talkies?

I'm so old I remember when owning a Nextel was a status symbol.

Remember when drinking straws were made of paper. And the younger generations think the introduction of paper straws today is something new.

I'm not old enough I guess to have seen the original paper straws.
And I have yet to see one of the new ones.

I see them more frequently in some of the chain restaurants. Chili’s, Applebee’s, etc.
