CmdrTaco becomes An Old(er) Man
So, over the years, Rob, as only true friends do, has managed to cause my inbox to explode over the years. Now, it's payback time. That's right, our very own CmdrTaco is turning 30 today. I highly encourage you to drop him an e-mail at (remove the spam parts) maldaSPAM@SPAMslashdot.org. And of course, birthday presents of single malt scotch can be sent c/o of me. I'll...uh...make sure he gets them.
Hmm, seems Taco was right.

Ok. But are you sure this label is going to work?

Who is CmdrTaco?

Listen Sonny, you've got no idea what old is! Why, when I first learned to program, I had to carry my punch cards in a paper bag through the snow, on foot, 10 miles, uphill, in both directions! We didn't have these fancy keyboards -- we had to use a telegraph key. Monitors! Feh! We had to use an Etch-a-Sketch!
Anyway, Happy Brithday.

So now we're going to slashdot CmdrTaco?
>Hopefully, with age comes wisdom.

30 years old and still making (good?) money from a college project. Life can't get much easier than that.
And 30 feels the same as 29 I assume....?
Good quote, too many chars. Seriously, the slashdot 120 char limit sucks!
It is all downhill from here by the way. At least until you hit 40, when it is more of a "plunging off a cliff" aging process; just think of your 30s as the hill before the plunge. I can see the edge of the cliff already.....

Happy Birthday Rob, many happy dups! *ducks*
You are not alone. This is not normal. None of this is normal.
"So, over the years, Rob, as only true friends do, has managed to cause my inbox to explode over the years."
Sorry. I didn't need to know that.
As a guy many years older than him, it is depressing to see my hardworked, carefully thought-out story submissions heartlessly rejected on a regular basis by a bunch of barely 30-year old millionaire kids.
But that is the way of things I guess.
And next week, I'll send him another birthday greeting!
It has come to my attention that this is a legendary first post. As such, I suggest you mod the parent of the parent up, and them proceed to mod the parent up as well, as it informs you that you should mod the parent of the parent (it's parent) up as well. Thank you.
Hope you get , like, loads of Ponies!!!
This was posted on DIGG on Tuesday morning!
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday dear Taco,
Happy Birthday to you
I guess that maybe the "OMG P0N13S" stories from April Fools Day weren't so tongue-in-cheek.
Happy Birthday CmdrT!
In honour of this gracious occasion, I will prepare the following:

That's nothing. I've been 30 for 8 years!

I hope high gas prices are depriving your children, you fucking dumbass.
Value this time in your life kids, because this is the time in your life when you still have your choices, and it goes by so quickly.
When you're a teenager you think you can do anything, and you do.
Your twenties are a blur.
Your thirties, you raise your family, you make a little money and you think to yourself, "What happened to my twenties?"
Your forties, you grow a little pot belly you grow another chin. The music starts to get too loud and one of your old girlfriends from high school becomes a grandmother.
Your fifties you have a minor surgery. You'll call it a procedure, but it's a surgery.
Your sixties you have a major surgery, the music is still loud but it doesn't matter because you can't hear it anyway.
Seventies, you and the wife retire to Fort Lauderdale, you start eating dinner at two, lunch around ten, breakfast the night before. And you spend most of your time wandering around malls looking for the ultimate in soft yogurt and muttering "how come the kids don't call?"
By your eighties, you've had a major stroke, and you end up babbling to some Jamaican nurse who your wife can't stand but who you call mama.
Any questions?
And with 32, you need an additional bit.
Happy birthday Rob, benevolent overlord with snazzy first name!

what you're really saying, like most slashdotters in their mid-30's, is that hopefully you might get laid in your 40's, so things can only be getting better
Happy birthday and this is coming from someone that posted 6 years ago at 18 and hopes he'll get there were you are now in 6 years.

I got married at 30 also.

I have patented the process (patent pending) of turning 30 years old on May 10, 2006. You, sir, will be hearing from my lawyer.
