The other day my kids surprised me when they saw an image of an envelope on a piece of paper I had and immediately said "look Daddy - email"
I started to think about a lot of other things that they will never know about and came up with this list of things we don't say anymore.
Feel free to add to it.
"Smoking please" - don't even think about it.
"Can I have a coffee please?" - Nope. Only a double tall mocha with cream and vanilla will do now.
"Who would know that?" - Google does...
"Do you have any stamps?" - what are they?
"Does it play 45's as well?" - Olden day iPods.
"Did you read about (whatever) in the paper today?" - only the over 50's...sometimes!
"Let's rent a video" - olden day iPods (again)
"Do you have an Atari?" - just old...
"There's no money in the Internet" - my uncles sage advice to me in the mid 1990's.
(Goes with my fathers wise statement that we would never fill the 20m hard drive on our 286 PC - even if we tried!)
And the biggest change to routine in my lifetime...
"Of course I'm at home. How else could I answer the phone?" - remember that...big things attached to the wall with a dial on the front. Wow...
