Mid-life ramblings...

[Rob Powell]

I used to be a Programming GOD in the early 70's... now I'm just another <expletive deleted> programmer....

Eddie, Eddie, Eddie....been there, done that, bought the tee shirt. I discovered that MANAGING programmers pays for more half n halfs and mandolins

Several years ago, an older friend gave me some excellent advice: "If you can make it to 50 without growing up, you don't have to."

That's going in my sig for sure!

Betram, I bet you know exactly where your towel is. That we have all got where we are proves that the improbability drive is functioning as intended.

I guess you're right - now all I need to find is that large piece of gold to get me through the current crisis...

But guys, the coolest gig is yet to come ... when a grandchild says "Grandpa will you teach me to play the mandolin?"

I am working on that now! I found a book with lots of kids' songs and am going to learn them first!

Well put, Ken! And I didn't become a rockstar either, but I tried. I think all phases of life have value.

I can just imagine it all hillbilly. But which grandchild?







Funny reading you guys' anecdotes. But seriously - none of you are going through a mid-life crisis. You know you are, when you want a mandocello.

But gum I want one!
