I'm a youthful 68. Copilot says I’m a vibrant and full-of-energy 68.

Age is just a number, and what really matters is how old you feel! As for me, 87 years old in July, no health issues, walk 3-5 km each day, and reading Geekzone, but not every day!!

I am 68 years. I am surprised I have made it thus far.





Here is a crazy notion, lets give peace a chance.

Still a spring chicken in my late 40's





I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup. Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

I can't extend the range of revealed ages in either direction.  I'm in the middle.

Physically late 40's. Mentally, I'm still in 5th form.
