[QUOTE=NinetyWt] Simpler. Muuuuuuuuuch simpler. Here’s some mundane pointless trivia: My dad was born in 1930. I was born in 1960. My daughter was born in 1990. SO … When my daughter is 30 … I’ll be 60 and my dad will be 90. 🆒 [/QUOTE] When my (twin) brother and I are 30, my aunt will be 40, my uncle 50 and my father 60. Kinda cool. Also, daps to **GorillaMan** , holding it down for us 1980’ers. ---

1986? Anybody? (Apparently, during my birth year, we had Comet Halley, the Chernobyl incident, Fergie and Prince Andrew getting married, Desmond Tutu getting elected bishop, the Iran-Contra affair, and the births of Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen. There you have it.) ---

January, 1968. Already hit 40 and didn’t feel particularly different. Didn’t really pay attention to my thirtieth, either. I’m pretty phlegmatic and boring that way. Either that or I’m repressing and saving up for the mother of all mid-life freak-outs :p. ---
