1.   You think “Libido” is an Italian pasta.
2.   The tooth fairy has more of your teeth than you do.
3.   You wake up I the morning with that awful “morning after” feeling ….  and yyou didn't do anything the night before.
4.   You drink prune juice on on purpose.
5.   You start complaining that  “They're building car seats too bloody low”
6.   You sit down to breakfast and hear “Snap, Crackle and Pop”  and you haven't poured the milk on your cereal yet
7.   Your pharmacist known you by your first name.
8.   Your car battery goes dead because your turn signal was on for two weeks straight
9.   Lawn becomes a big part of your life.
10.   You begin to think of a caravan as “One Sweet Ride”
11.   People ask if you want some help to cross the road.
12.   Conversations with people your age become an “Organ Recital”
13.   Your sex drive shift into “Park”
14.   A “Quickie” has become a power nap at the traffic lights.
15.   You have an uncontrollable urge to feed pigeons at the park.
16.   Many of your co-workers were born in the same year as your last promotion.
17.   You play bingo and like it.
18.   You light the candles on the birthday cake and the grandies show up with a bag of marshmallows.
19.   Your back goes out more than you do.
20.   You can't see anything funny about this list.
