Why do I get the feeling a lot of you won't get the reference?

That is the age gap. Sad thing is, I get it looks like I am old.

Well on the bright side, you still have your looks

I was so surprised the Kelly LeBrock didn't do more movies, I think being married to Steven Seagal may have hurt her career, his kind of bad rubs off

Ahhh - now that's a lot more interesting (and useful).
Do you have a web page on it?

I've seen several ways of getting old(er). - You should be happy you do it the vine way - don't take the vinegar path. 't would be a pity.

Normally I try to be like Iman, of whom someone once said: She is like a black cashmere sweater, a beautiful timeless classic that fits always, with everything, everywhere.

Ah, this is interesting indeed. We have one in labs, it makes wonders

Until this moment I did not know how desperately I want one of these.

Perhaps we should ask Mr Morrison to print off a couple of them for us! My office in the attic is filled with little micro-controller projects (some even worked!) but I suspect that project looks a bit beyond my skills.

Of the many things that I've done, some I can't talk about. Not 007 spy stuff. Just stuff that "never happened", and "I don't know what you're talking about" kinda stuff.

I'm not at all that unique. There are tens of thousands like that. People doing the best that they can for their country.


But I've also worked as an EMT in the ER of a major hospital and have done CPR on more than 30 -40 people. I even taught CPR in that hospital.

Volunteer fireman about 35 years ago.

I used to walk up and down mountains with a 70 - 75 pound backpack for fun. Over time I covered a good chunk of the Appalachian Trail.




One time hippie, believe it or not.

And like the Brewer and Shipley song One Toke Over The Line;
"I met all the girls and I loved myself a few ...."

Well...
Maybe more than a few. An average looking guy can put women at their ease far better than a really good looking man.

I'm old enough to remember her, but I still had to resort to Google.

I consider that I lead a sufficiently adventurous life just for one reason: I do one thing every day that scares me







- I go to work.

I guess I was at a different stage in my adolescence, Miss LeBrock stood out and popped up in my idle moments
