Look like Jeff has been collecting "old bits" for 41 years...

Happy Birthday!

    HB, OBC! Geritol, Motrin, Rogaine, Lipotor and . . . . they're all your friends! If you have trouble getting out of your chair be sure to use your arms more than in the past.

    Ron must have caught it at just after GMT 00:00. I was off air and asleep at the wheel, (working sound at a gig).

    Hope my job is still intact. DoggieDoc got me one time before. I hope it's not three strikes and your out. :)

    I think the Old in OldBitCollector can finally be considered official. :)

    Hope you have a fun day.

    Jeff: Here's a test to see if you're getting old (per Roy) and/or slipping. You're a video game guy. Can you identify my vintage arcade videogame partially shown in the background here? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrJzOydjwgw

    Hint: you can almost see a joystick on it...

    Even though I'm a bit older, I'll defer to the voice of experience! :)

    Yeah, I can definitely see it's a vintage 80's arcade. I spy a joystick with a grip, but for the life of me can't remember the game.

    Thanks for all the Birthday wishes guys! Rebekah hauled me away from microcontrollers and computers for a day of window shopping and leisure.

    It was a very relaxing and unwinding day..

    Loss of memory is one of the benefits of getting old for you can't remember how good the things were that you can't do any longer... ;-)
