    Activating Aging Protocol 38.0.

    38 years old. Damn.

    I remember, as a kid, thinking hey, I'll be 31 in the year 2000, how cool is that? I dunno why I thought that, except I think I was hoping I'd be doing well enough to afford my flying car.

    7 years later, no damn flying car.

    If I could talk to myself back then, I'd back hand him a few times on general principles. What an idiot. But mostly I'd tell him that while no, flying cars don't happen, life still ends up being pretty cool anyway. And that at 38, you'll start to see the hints of gray in the hair, but in the right spots. That he would, with no effort, start to look like a really short Reed Richards or Fred McMurry, which is ok, because it least you'll have hair to turn gray, and not as of yet suffering from Italian Pattern Baldness.

    I think he would like that. Otherwise I'd just hit him again. Hell, I'd do that anyway. If you can't smack yourself around on your birthday, then what's the point?
