On January 1st, we will begin the year 2013. Do you know what it has in common with 1987?

I realised at the weekend that I was born closer to the end of World War2 than to today. That is so scary, especially as growing up WW2 seemed such an age away.
I never even thought about that, but realized after reading your post that I'm in the same boat. My children made sure to remind me how old I was all day on Sunday when I became the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.
I wasn't, now I am, then I won't be anymore.

This year I will have known my wife longer than not ( Does this sentence make sense ?) BTW, what is World War 2 ?

I have been with my wife over half her life. She has lived with me more than she lived with her family. Finally, I own her. (Yeah right, truth is, She owns me, and I am happy to be hers).

That's been true for me since I was 11. Now, stop talking and finish your cereal, youngster... How's this one - all of the ships I was ever on in the Navy have long-since been decommissioned - even the one on which I was a plank owner (I was a member of the original crew when it was commissioned).

I was born 4 years after the war ended.

I'm so sorry, is there any kind of aid package I can send? ;P

Wow. On this site you have mental images/ideas of what posters are like. I have always assumed you to be roughly in your 20's :laugh:

Exactly. All four digits for the year are unique. This has not happened since 1987. :)
