Received this email... got rather scared when reading point no. 25... :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) Enjoy...

1. Your house plants are alive, and you can't smoke any of them.
2. Having $3x in a twin bed is out of the question.
3. You keep more food than beer in the fridge.
4. 6:00 AM is when you get up, not when you go to bed.
5. You hear your favorite song in an elevator.
6. You watch the Weather Channel.
7. Your friends marry and divorce instead of "hook up" and "break up."
8. You go from 130 days vacation time to 14.
9. Jeans and a sweater no longer qualify as "dressed up."
10. You're the One calling the police because those %&@# kids next door won't turn down the stereo.
11. Older relatives feel comfortable telling $3x jokes around you.
12. You don't know what time Taco Bell closes anymore.
13. Your car insurance goes down and car payments go up.
14. You feed your dog Science Diet instead of McDonald's leftovers
15. Sleeping on the couch makes your back hurt.
16. You take naps from noon to 6 PM!
17. Dinner and a movie is the whole date instead of the beginning of one.
18. Eating a basket of chicken wings at 3 AM would severely upset, rather than settle, your stomach.
19. If you're a gal, you go to the drug store for ibuprofen and antacid, not condoms and pregnancy tests.
20. A $4.00 bottle of wine is no longer "pretty good stuff."
21. You actually eat breakfast food at breakfast time.
22. "I just can't drink the way I used to" replaces "I'm never going to drink that much again."
23. 90% of the time you spend in front of a computer is for real work.
24. You drink at home to save money before going to a bar.
25. You read this entire list looking desperately for one sign that doesn't apply to you and can't find one to save your sorry old butt.

There is a local radio add that has three more.

You used to look for a "Hip joint" and now you need a hip joint.

You used to want to move to California because it's cool, not you want to move there because it's warm.

You used to worry about the color of your hair, now you worry about the amount.

True like all the rest listed, however, this one is still disturbing - no, Mom, I don't want to hear $3x jokes from you.

1. Not true...they are alive, and I can.
9. Not true...it does qualify, and when it doesn't, I stop dressing up at all.
15. Don't tell the Mrs., but, it feels better.
24. Reverse it. 10% is for real work. 90% is to hang out at ARMORAMA! :-)

All of them except one. My mother has told me dirty jokes since I was a Kid. But the rest - right on the mark!
