> I thought it was well said. But, . . . er . . . uh. . . well, are you saying that my future is in the past?

Er... Yeah, I guess... In a way... OK, how about we pretend you didn't ask that question, or that you did, and I came up with the perfect answer?

> I remember when I was in the sixth grade, I calculated that I would be 67 when the 21st century began,(Jan.1, 2001)and that's just exactly how it worked out. That was my first and last accurate mathamatical calculation. Anyway, it got here sooner than I expected. In 2033, I'll be 100. I read in the paper the other day about a guy who died at 104. He lived in three different centuries!!!

I just had to post with a little tidbit-- My great-grandmother just turned 104 in February, and is going strong. I wish I could have made it to her birthday this year... I was at the 100th and the 103rd (my family uses her birthdays as an excuse to get together and spend time with her and each other) but work prevented me from going this year. Next year, though, I plan to be there. I just hope she plans to be there too. :-)
