OK, how old am I? I went to see The Who in concert, and they were the opening act for Herman's Hermits!

I turned 54 last week. I'm a senior programmer/analyst and program in C++, VB, Java, and COBAL. My first computer was a TRS80. In college I wrote a football game in APL on an IBM Selectric terminal (no video display). I wrote a game in Commodore 128 Basic that was published in Computes Gazette magazine. It would be awesome being a teenager now with all the hi tech toys available. We built and played with shortwave radios when I was 15.

I like the rock concert dating method.

My first show was March 17, 1980. Roy Orbison opened for the Eagles.
