You know you're getting old ...
When you can stroll through an antique store and it feels more like a stroll down memory lane.

I knew I was getting old when I walked into the Air & Space Museum in DC and an airplane I worked on was hanging from the ceiling.

"Oh - I had one of those...." frequently comes from my mouth in an antique store. I guess that makes me - an antique!

Couldn't get it to fly, huh?
My wife reminds me I’m getting old when we stroll through a car show and I keep remarking “I had one of those” as we pass vehicles from the 1950s and 1960s.
I guess I am old. My first car was 1946 Olds I paid 200 bucks for .
I know I'm getting old, when I look at my birth year and it shows 1929!

I felt old when I looked down at my Accutron Spaceview watch and realized that it was probably the first electronic antique...And several of it's brethren went to the moon.
You know you are old, when you hear the songs you listen to when you were young, in the grocery store

My grandfather used to say, 'You know you are old when it just hangs there and watches you polish your shoes.'
