On the topic of age ...
My dad just floored us by announcing he was putting in notice for his retirement this weekend.
This may not surprise those who only go by age, since he was alive (albeit a young boy) during WWII. But those who do know him were shocked. I honestly don't know how he'll handle having that much free time.
(- I think that's why I feel so old around most people. I REMEMBER stuff about vietnam. My father was a boy during WWII and remembers the Korean War. My granfather's brother was in the first World War. That makes one feel old when dealing with a crowd that learned about the Gulf War in history class. -)
