Default Wanna Feel Old?

As I'm watching the key Mets vs. Braves game today, Michael Machion Harris II was at bat when one of the commentators remarked, "He grew up idolizing Justin Heyward." I thought, "Justin Heyward??? Isn't he still playing???" Yup, and according to Wikipedia, he's only 33 years old.

The guy grew up idolizing someone who only started playing in the majors in 2010!!!! My brain simply cannot process this!!!!!

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Darren- I did not need your help...


interesting though.



I can tell how old I am by how much I'm starting to hate walk-up music.

I thought he was talking about the lead singer of the Moody Blues.
I've been old for quite awhile--just ask my daughter.

Perhaps I should've waited to start this thread on Tuesday afternoon after I heard the voice in my Gemini dream. Wow, isn't life strange?
