And then you start thinking how long it's been since HS graduation and you
make outloud remarks that include onscene variants of the word dung. I'm by
far not the oldest here and my 30th reunion (the first I'll even think of
going to by the way) is in 3 yrs. When I graduated HS I couldn't even
imagine BEING 30, let alone what 30 yrs from graduation would be like.

        What's really bad is that in another couple of years it will
have been a full 10 years since Commodore filed for bankruptcy and
another 2 years after that it will be 10 years since Atari got
swallowed by JTS. It is kind of hard to believe it's going on 20
years since the intro of the Mac and Amiga though.... even the first
machines from Be are 10 years old now.
