Your 10 year old daughter asks you if you grew up without TV.
 
Thanks, that was funny.

My kids (5 and 7) look at me funny when I describe my first remote control, sitting next to the TV and turning the knob one way then the other.
 
Hey, it works even if it's not kids. I once asked my first wife, "What was it like when men landed on the moon?"

I'm guessing she didn't let you plant your flag for a while after that, huh?

I'm at that magical age where I remember growing up with TVs like that, and can still ask my parents what it was like watching the Cubs win their last World Series.
 
i had a first-year jets beat writer ask me, "what was it like to cover namath?" :o :o :o

ouch. i gently told him that namath was even before my time.

my kids have been much kinder. ;D ;D ;D
 
Kids are funny. Even older kids, like the ones I work with that are still in high school or fresh out.

They're so cute, but sometimes I just want to duck tape their mouths shut.

You work with kids who have long bills for mouths?
