@chessloser: Yes! Well, to match your interviewing prowess, I’ll still have some ways to go, but it’ll be a great start.

@David K: Uh, think I’ve heard it before. Maybe I need to accidentally spoof the rest of his wisdom.

@Annie: This sums it up just about perfectly.

@Blunderprone: In 20 years, I’ll find that sums it up just about perfectly.

When I was 30 I wanted to be 25
When I was 35 I wanted to be 24
When I was 40 I wanted to be 23
When I was … ( but never 18… I was just a dumbass)

I can’t believe I ever wanted to be 30. Childhood was much better. Actually, my twenties were the best times of my life…not that things aren’t heavenly now, but I miss that perfect balance of naivete and post-college wisdom.

you DO KNOW the famous quote, more or less:

“when i was twenty, i …
when i was thirty, i …
when i was forty i began to know the dictates of heaven.
but when i was fifty, i began to not have trepidation.
and when i was sixty, i already knew the dictates of heaven, as a horse jumps before a whip because he knows what to do already” or such…

you know this quote by Confucious. too busy to look it up now, but more or less as i say.
