How Old are you??

I'm so old that when I went in the Navy the cannonball was loaded in the front end of the barrel!

Just thought I'd liven up the "Outpost"

I don't have as many years as some here but I sure do have a lot of miles.

They are not necessarily fun miles either. I think I still got a few to go.

When I joined the army Centurion was a rank not a tank.

An old Australian Army one liner - I think they got rid of the Centurion's in the late 70's.

When I was young.......

No PC available !
After being a teenager, I got my first PC with 640K RAM, 5Mhz Clock, two 5"1/4 floppies and no hard disk...
