Well, I was going to ask for some advice from the members.

I am going to retire at the end of June and was going to ask what others did after working years. However, I am not sure anyone is old enough to give me the benefit of their experience.

I really feel like an antique now.

[StagLefty]

Wasn't supposed to live this long-63 but feel great. [Tooth]

[jerrymrc]

Started in my current field 30 years ago. Before that I spent 4 years as a line wrench at a Chevy dealership.

I guess the good thing about being an "old Fart" is I have just over 4 years to go to retirement @ 56. Everything I have is paid for except the house (almost) and I will only lose about 10K per year in income.

I will say to all the 20somethings out there is I hope you are already putting away and planning. My plan changed a little when I turned 33 but the goal did not. ;)

[Graves]

A whole pack O' geezers round hurr.....

I'm 27.

[MichiganMilitia]

I was 18 when I bought my first pair - worth every penny!

Yeah, I needed some for riding, but I didn't know good boots cost so much! Mine were almost $300 out the door, and they were still much cheaper than some of the others in the store.

Yup,, Tampa. However Spurrier was a Gator and was about 5 years before me sorry.. Later he coached the Tamap Bay Bandits, we built all their gym equipment, sleds, pratice field stuff.
Orndorf went on to be Mr. Natural in the defunct WWE.
of course M. Morris went to prison,, no wonder he was so fast,,, Cocaine...
the Tuz we all know went to Oakland then died later, did leave a nice scar on my chin.... steroids are a bitch.

Like many here (it seems) us "old farts" have been dealing with computers before you guys were born.

In 81 I was taking the tapes to process requests

In 85 I bought my first computer and learned DOS

In 86 I learned UNIX and the SunOS

In 89 I built my first computer running Windows 2.0

Took the words right out of my fingers... Ditto. ^^

We chased girls while waiting for the AT&T Unix to boot on the 8 inch floppy disks... [Pepsi]

Other techs I work with are just amazed what I can do with "DOS" today... glad I learned it well back in the day.

[cebeu]

Like many here (it seems) us "old farts" have been dealing with computers before you guys were born.

In ~84' I was servicing networked DEC PDP & VAX/VMS series systems (and other mfgrs products) and still keeping R390 Tube receivers alive.

[gnihcraes]

ah, the PDP11, I don't want to see those again! (used them in college for learning)

[theGinsue]

Dang, I'm surprised there's twice as many "old-farts" as there are folks my age. How did yall get so intrawebz savvy?

Been a computer geek by trade since 85, and that's after working towards (not finishing) an MIS degree in 83-84.

Started as a Computer Operator (tape ape) with Honeywell mainframes running GCOS3 and GCOS8 - command line stuff. Worked with Honeywell H6080's, DPS-6, DPS-90's, DPS-8000, etc and IBM-4341's. Played with Zenith Z-100 and Z-150 PC's which is where I learned MS-DOS.

Became a comm operator using old teletype systems (ASR-7) and (then) brand spanking new OCR systems.

Became a System Software Analyst on the OS/hardware listed above.

Eventually (93-95) moved into Unix/SunOS - also command line.

Moved away from Unix for 7 years while I led a web development shop and misc other activities.

Now, back to Unix and PC's/Windows Servers (XP, Vista, Server 2003, etc).

I've worked with Paper tape, punch cards, 9-track tapes, 10-disk platters arrays, 10" floppies, 8" floppies, 5.25" floppy, 3.5" floppies, CD-Rom, DVD, USB drives, etc.

You could say I've had a little experience with computers and the web. In fact, I used the old military ARPAnet before (er-hmm) Al Gore invented the Internet.

How do you move AWAY from UNIX for web development? I took a job in 99 at a place that was a 100% NT/IIS shop for 6 months... I couldn't stand it. They'll have to pry UNIX from my cold dead hands.

I'm with you 100%, but I was Active Duty USAF and worked on/with what I was told to work on/with. Used PSP, Java, JavaScript, etc on a Windows based network. I really do prefer UNIX to any OS out there. It's stable, versatile, powerful, and (in my opinion) easy to use.

The numbers on that poll make me feel real old. Well that and the fact that my scalp is showing more and more every day. 35 is not that old . . .

You are old!









I am only 1 year younger! [ROFL1]

Cost me and my folks a small fortune

I'm 40 and my first computer game was on a Radio-Shack TRS80 "trash 80" computer. Now wrap you're mindes around this, the game was Russian Roulet. You put a cassett tape into the cassett player. It had tones like a fax modem to sent to the computer. It asks for the 1st players name. Then 2nd and so on.

1st player are you ready? Hit enter. "CLICK"
2nd player are you ready? Hit enter "BANG" you loose. Would you like to play again? Y or N [ROFL1]

No Bull!!!!!!!!!!!!

My first was the Tandy color computer 3! No hard drive, you had to type a 10 page program to play a game and then it was gone when you shut it off! Kinda like programmimg now days on crap computers, when your just about done it crashes [Bang]

I always thought A&W (the drive-ins, not the new ones) had the best onion rings. Of course, Judge Baldwin's down in the Springs is my current favorite.

[Graves]

Oh cmon Tco, you're not that old. [Coffee]

Have you tried the onion rings at Culver's? Pretty darn good too.

The dog's loves to play tug. I get some weird looks when it's tug time. The command is "Get a rope!". Anyone remember the Pace Picante Sauce ads?

Great Now I feel old, can we start the old Farts class at 31?

[StagLefty]

64 and it's this forum that keeps me young. Except for the political posts because I still can't believe "what's happening"< whole new meaning haha !!
I'm encouraged by the youngsters on here because they give me hope for the future of our country. Keep me young guys [Beer]

[Elhuero]

You are old enough to be my grandpa. A cool old grandpa, but a grandpa none the less... [ROFL1] Is that what you meant by encouragement? Hey, I didn't say great grandpa! [Tooth]

[spyder]

It would be sweet to have a grandpa like some of you old guys on here. Mine just sit around and stare at everyone like they are the evil of the world that stole their youth or something. They always seem to have the walking farts also... [ROFL1] If I were you old guys, I would embrace being a cool old guy. It is cooler than being an old one saying that you are still young. Fuck young, who cares, there are less cool old guys out there, makes you guys a commodity. So, don't try to act young, just be cool old farts, it's better.

[StagLefty]

I'll have to check with mods and see if I can get "cool old fart" under my screen name [ROFL1]

I had a supreme case of the walking farts just this afternoon while taking a quick stroll at our local Walmart . And since I am a 74 year old Grandpa, does this make me a KOOL Grampa? I was kinda careful of who I walked in front of while tooting as I had no interest in getting my ancient axe kicked.

[StagLefty]

Blaster you've earned the right to fart wherever you want-Fart On Bro !!

The wife was right beside me. Don't believe she knew what foul deed was taking place. I guess I could have given her a dirty look and told her, in a very loud voice, HEY, STOP THAT, but then I would most likely go hungry for the next few days.
