anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.
7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the

8. Leaving the house without your mobile phone, which you didn't have
The first 20 or 30 (or 60) years of your life, is now a cause for panic and
you turn around to go and get it.
10. You get up in the morning and go on line before getting your
coffee.
11. You start tilting your head sideways to smile.
: )

13. Even worse, you know exactly to whom you are going to forward this
message.
14. You are too busy to notice there was no #9 on this list.

An older, white haired man walked into a jewellery store one Friday
evening with a beautiful young gal at his side. He told the jeweller
he was looking for a special ring for his girlfriend. The jeweller
looked through his stock and brought out a $5,000 ring and showed it
to him.
The old man said:" I don't think you understand, I want something very
special."
At that statement, the jeweller went to his special stock and brought
another ring over. "Here's a stunning ring at only $40,000," the
jeweller said. The young lady's eyes sparkled and her whole body
trembled with excitement. The old man seeing this said: "We'll take
it."
The jeweller asked how payment would be made and the old man stated by
cheque. "I know you need to make sure the cheque is good, so I'll
write it now and you can call the bank on Monday to verify the funds
and I'll pick the ring up Monday afternoon," he said.
Monday morning, a very peed-off jeweller ! phoned the old man. "There's
no money in that account."
"I know", said the old man, "but can you imagine the weekend I had?"
