And I guess nobody wants to talk about the popularity of vinyl these days - but I've got the good ones from the 'first time through!'

And I had a 25-year career photographing weddings and now own three $1000 doorstops - nobody wants my 'professional' 'film' cameras anymore....

Oh, and just to add another 'checkpoint:'

If you've 'put on your 'high-beams' by pressing another button on the floor - yeah, you're old!
