52, and wondering what in tarnation a transformer101 with tapatalk is:dunce: Do you have to be a moderator to use one?:p I'll get back to shaving my ears now.

It's from somebody too stoooopid to turn off the annoying signature. Almost as bad as "sent from my Blackberry" you get from Dilbert's Boss who can't administer his own Blackberry.

Today I feel old because I know what a TRS-80 is.

Even if I beg, they won't card me any more :-(
THAT'S feeling old!

I actually got carded the other night at a place that cards everyone. That's fine, I understand, but the guy actually read the license, looked me over and then took his time handing it back to me. I wanted to say, "Take my five bucks for the cover and let's all get on with our lives," but he woulda kicked me out, so I let him have his little power trip.

Today I feel old because I know what a TRS-80 is.

I had to look that up. I'm impressed because I didn't know such things existed back then. In '78 or '79 I was learning Cobol and Fortran. Some problems were solved using punchcards as opposed to the terminals. The good old days...

I find the signature annoying too, but I don't think that makes Nick stupid. Perhaps he purposely left it on there to let people know about Tapatalk?

No. It says he lacks the capacity to type properly.

Nah, it's good advertising. I'm leaving it on for a bit for those who don't always read the Announcements section and aren't aware we have a mobile solution available.

PLUS, (particularly on my mobile phone), it's a caveat for my horrible typing and short-winded answers.

FWIW: a friend of mine has an iPhone and the default signature says,

"Sent from my pretentious phone"

This song was on the XM channel we have on in the office today, and my 25 year old assistant said to me "this is kind of a cool song, I've NEVER heard it before" (and she was 100% serious!!) :eek:

That surprises me, that song is still on fairly often even on the radio.

Today I felt old because......I was looking through the Powder Magazine buyer's guide, saw a dude skiing with overly baggy pants down past his ass and an open jacket and thought: "he looks like a moron".
