27, not sure if you want people to self identify here or not. Also there is a lot of age data in this thread:

Very well, sir. You're… not only handsome, but a powerful man. I could see the second you walked in here, you were someone to reckon with…

I was ten when this came out and I quite enjoyed it:

EDIT: (Can you believe that's not a drum machine? Unbelievable).

I was 3 in Whip It years. My 10-year album was Joshua Tree, and is still one of my all-time favorites. Not sure if that means it's timeless or I'm out of touch. Probably both.

39 (That's my story and I'm sticking to it!)

Ah, the incomparable Jack Benny. Born 1894, died 1974 at the age of 39.

One of the true greats of comedy.

Good to see Benny fans in this place. That cameo in Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World with Benny being told off by Ethel Merman! And I walked past the theater last week where I saw the movie in December, 1963. It is a public school annex now.

It's not far from the Hall of Fame of Great Americans which I mentioned on the forum a few months ago. Remember? On the original New York University campus??!!

How many have visited the Hall since I posted?

I fear the response.

Alas! And it's in the Bronx, a metaphor for "centrally located," if there ever was one.

If anyone wants, we can start a thread on the history of the bankrupt and absorbed New York, Westchester & Boston Rail Road. The company headquarters was over by the Bronx Zoo.

Oh, I'm 60. I saw the movie at age 8.

Old enough to remember when JFK was shot and his brother starting the "War on Women" at Chappaquiddick.

Please do not ask, "Who's JFK?"

Talk about luck. Was there a better day in the history of time for a scandal to erupt than July 20, 1969?
