        The Boy has just turned 18. Soon off to bed for a few hours sleep. Then to work for a few hours and then it'd off to the pub. Thank Christ we don't live over in Wowserland, else I'd still have to wait another 3 years to go have a drink with him at the pub.

            Not to burst your bubble, but you were officially old before that. Your old brain is just realizing the fact now.

                  First, last, or only? My first is about to be 23, my middle is 18 and my last is 14. But then, my first paying coding job was for a DOS product using dBaseIII+ and the Clipper compiler. Congratulations, you're much less likely to kill him now. They start getting wiser about now.

                      First. The only other one is 15. First programming job was back in 1989 on the mainframe.
