Share with us a personal "I'm so old" story.

I'm so old I remember when carnivals still featured freak shows.

EDIT: I remember my parents got a "baby bonus" from the gov't of $8 per month for me in the 1950s !!

I'm so old I remember I was always waist deep in snow during winter and snow shoveling was an actual job

From kindergarten through high school there was only ONE winter day when the schools were closed. And I lived in Hamilton, Canada (Buffalo North).
