You know it's 2007 when...(Apologies if this actually did the rounds in 2006...)
YOU KNOW YOU ARE LIVING IN 2007 when..
1. You accidentally enter your password on the microwave.
2. You haven't played solitaire with real cards in years.
3 You have a list of 15 phone numbers to reach your family of 3.
4. You e-mail the person who works at the desk next to you.
5. Your reason for not staying in touch with friends and family is that they don't have e-mail addresses.
6. You pull up in your own driveway and use your cell phone to see if anyone is home to help you carry in the groceries.
7. Every commercial on television has a web site at the bottom of the screen
8. Leaving the house without your cell 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. : )
12. You're reading this and nodding and laughing.
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.
15. You actually scrolled back up to check that there wasn't a #9 on this list
AND NOW U R LAUGHING at yourself.

Nope, it was the first thing I did when I logged into M.net. When I got the email I thought "They'll love that at M.net" so I posted it before checking the rest of the posts. That's how much I love you guys and how warm and fuzzy you guys make me
And are you under arrest? Depends, how old are you and what's your sex(uality)?

There speaks someone who doesn't like it - it'll be around as long as people like it and that will be a while.

The craze/obsession is on it's way out. It's settling in as something people just have and use daily.. like email..or instant messenger..
Facebook is becoming the new obsessive craze.

It's a bit like ICQ. Looong time ago we were all ICQ-ing each other. Now it's MSN or (for the Americans, who seem not to know better ) AIM.
Number 9 is also my fave on that list.

It's so true. I remember email was the most awesome thing in, like, 6th grade. We all sent each other the chain emails and stuff. It's been ages since I've actually emailed a friend...it's all done on myspace now...and yes, facebook is the new myspace and will take over in six months.

Between three of us we have FIVE regularly used telephones - a mobile each, the ADSL for the network, and the landline. |
I live on the 3rd floor of a block of flats behind a code-locked gate, a code-locked door, a lift (thankfully) and then the locks on my door...Nice and secure but try getting a keyboard, a giant bag of sheet music, laptop, normal bag etc etc...I'd be living in my car more than half the week if I didn't call up every now and then
Oh, any excuse to whinge about that right now

So I just went to look and re read what number 9 was.

You win your award for courage:
I know loads of other people went back to look and never admitted it to it
