14 years since God expressed his displeasure at the Bay Bridge World Series.

The Grateful Dead played this song twice in the days immediately following the quake.

We'll build ourselves another town so you can tear it down again...

14 years?

I know everyone over 30 is going to hate me for saying this, but... Wow. I'm old.

Feh.

I was 3 when Apollo 11 landed on the Moon.

7 when Richard Nixon resigned

10 for the Bicentennial

11 when Star Wars was released - the first time.

14 when John Lennon was shot.

And I enlisted in the Army in 1983 (started training in 1984)

Trust me, you aren't old.. yet
