Both spelt and spelled are acceptable spellings for the past tense of spell.

Planning ahead before going out with your friends because none of us have cellphones?

really?

do math when you shop, or pay for anything dont you

not every company, store, institution has the money to provide a computer and a software for you to input information, paperwork will be done for generations to come may be not on paper any more

no one goes to the library these days anyways, scribd.com but books are still nice

I remember the old phone that we had. One day Mom got it replaced with the original touchtone phone through the phone company...on equipment lease. We move out of the house and I ask why the phone has to be returned and she says, oh, I forgot that we never owned the phone...for 7 years. At $5 per month.

Oh Mom, we owned that bitch by now.

Kinda a boring read since most of it is just technology advancements not much cultural aspects of life...

At the time, Minidisc was a great technology. Compact music players with great sound that didn't degrade over time like cassettes did, and was re-recordable. It didn't really take off in North America because tapes had 'good enough' quality, but once you heard the difference between tapes and MD, it was like night and day. I was highly dissapointed when I first bought an iPod, because the audio quality was so bad compared to my MD players.

I mean by the time our children grows up, the ICE could very well be extinct if echo hippies get their way with legislations and this green movement.

Also another thing to add to the list is "When I raced a car last it was at a time when sex was safe and racing was dangerous. Now, it's the other way round."
