Would you like to borrow a couple 8 tracks? Maybe some reel to reel? I had an Akai 1800SD. I'll bet I can dig up some great cassettes too.
Those are all old words

Either technology is moving very fast or we're aging quickly, or both.

Here's a good one. I think at one time this phrase permeated my working vocabulary.
"Far Out"
It went well with "heavy"

Once I was listening to a live band with some friends, and a 30's-something lady came up to me and said, "You're an attractive elderly gentleman." 
On one of my road trips, I asked a hotel desk clerk to give me the AARP discount on my room, and she said, "I already did."

You made me laugh especially with the 2nd one!

I think this grey hair is sending the wrong signals.

I had dinner with a group and one of the plus one's was easily young enough to be my daughter -- and not because I had her at a ridiculously young age.
The restaurant was playing 80s music and she kept saying "I love this music - my mom used to listen to that song"
Sucks to get old but beats the alternative.
