Did the author confuse a "Rolodex" with a Codex?

This reminds me of a controversy that stemmed around the use of several hyphens in the movie title: The 40-Year-Old Virgin

Alot of people thought there were too many hyphens in the title.

If you remove the first hyphen, it means there are 40 year-old virgins

remove the second hyphen it it makes it seem like 40 years there is an old virgin.

I wonder if they had to hire an entire english department to get the title right, because I remember reading some of the letters written in Roger Ebert column about the title and it was pretty funny.
