5. 50 is the new 30, right?
And, you're right, as long as you can play metal bass guitar

you're cool! :hi:

8. Mathematical facts about fifty
Roman numeral: L
Binary: 1100102
Octal: 628
Duodecimal: 4212
Hexadecimal: 3216

Fifty is the smallest number that can be written as the sum of two squares in two distinct ways:
50 = 12 + 72 = 52 + 52.

It is also the sum of three squares:
50 = 32 + 42 + 52.

11. Happy Birthday
Damned old person. I'm 50, sometimes feel like it physically, but refuse to grow up. You should do the same.
Once again, happy Birthday. It's your day and you should enjoy it. Even if the kids are treading across your lawn. :evilgrin:

It's my birthday as well - 55 today. Right now I'm watching my 6 year old daughter draw the Olympic divers she just watched on the television. Life is good.

27. Terrell, TX huh?
I go camping on land owned by a friend there. One evening, we got kinda drunk and wound up in an overgrown cemetery. Weird place, though-- small town Texas on the cusp of becoming trendy.

28. I live about 10 miles or so east of town. And you're right, it is a weird place.
Kind of cliquish, too. Been here 10 years and still don't fit in. But I have a decent job, so I don't
sweat the small shit. :-)
