54. yes, but some things just don't fit

I like some of the music of the 60s, very little from the 70s (disco still sucks), a little from the 80s... quite a lot from the 90s.

My fashion trend that I have held since I turned like 26 is what I wear today... post pandemic casual (glad to see the rest of the world join me!)

I remember the JFK assassination... but only because we were sent home from kindergarten and when my parents came home I was watching the news on TV and my parents started crying.

I helped invent a lot of the things the young people today use ( like the Internet, the use of emojis, web browsing, etc ). I find it funny that the 20 somethings think boomers have no idea how these things work or how to use them. In general it is probably true, but not for everyone my age. After all, I didn't start working on the Arpanet until 1976 and by then, the idea was over 10 years old.

Everyone who is wondering just HOW OLD the technology we use everyday right now is should watch the following.

It's from 1968... and is called the "Mother of all Demos"

It is good to remember that we stand on shoulders of giants... and be a bit humble about what we add.
