(In case you're wondering when/why this occurred to me, it's because in my music class we were talking about concerts in bars, and then bar-entry age, which locally is 19.)

Senility is really a bummer

... and, at your age, one year is a 5.5% difference, well worth correcting. :-)

I think you don't have to worry about senile moments until one year becomes less than 2% of your life.

Not completely related (or at all), but someone whose name differs from mine by one letter (an H) has a Bacon number of 4 :-)

I like the idea of a Kevin/bacon number better than a Kevin Bacon number.

Everybody has a Kevin/bacon number of 2 or less because everybody knows somebody who knows somebody named Kevin who eats bacon.

Aw, you broke it.

Sometimes humour is completely wasted on some people.

Don't know if any of you are fans of Erdös on face--book, but if so/not, you might want to check out his most recently added picture.

I hear he is accepting small posthumous research/travel donations via (of course) PayPál.
