Or when the music you listened to as a kid -- which was already old at the time -- has completely vanished from public consciousness. When somebody asks you for your favorite band and you say "Richard Himber," and they look at you as if you're speaking Sanskrit.

The song "Winter Wonderland" turns eighty this year: it was first recorded by Richard Himber and his Ritz-Carlton Orchestra in October of 1934.

The three stages of believing in Santa.

1) You are a small child, you passionately believe in Santa.

2) You are an older child, you don't believe in Santa.

3) You're a big kid. You are Santa. (And that's when you know that you are getting old.)
