I was able to hunt when I was 5 and I did not need a license.
I was legally driving at 9. I got my first driving license at 13.
I got my manhood in a '59 Caddy... it had wings... very cool...

Was just having a tech discussion at work. Teaching some old concepts to some younger infotech network engineers.

Was taking about implementing something called “Internet Protocol version 4” in the late 80s. ….. around that time some people were saying it would never take of.

Funny thing the internet has become 😀

I brought a block of IPV6 addresses about 10 years back as only had small blocks of IPV4s remaining at work.

I sent a email to my IT exec saying, congratulations on owning your new block of IPV6 internet address. “ Please ensure efficient use of our new 2.4 Billion address.”

At the block size ipv6 addresses are being dished out we are going to need IPv8 😀

I regret not grabbing a /16 (Class B) IP netblock for my employer when InterNIC was giving them away for free in the 1980's.....

Would have been a similar investment into bitcoin no doubt. Worth a fortune now.

I'm out of the market, are IPv4 addresses continuing to hold their value?

As the registered owner of three ARIN IPv4 netblocks, I can assure you that the IP address scalpers are contacting me weekly with offers to buy.

My response to them is that I'm not selling, but could be convinced to part with 192.168.0.0/16 for a great price if they want it.....

I know exactly what's going on, but that's the 1980's host.

FWIW, I was in the audience for NYC's Romper Room in he 1960's, and got to meet Miss Louise after the episode ended.

I wondered why she didn't seem familiar. Probably should have done a better search.

My first TV Penny. She was too old for me but I didn't care.

Then there was Penny from Lost in Space (Angela Cartwright): She was just the right age:

And finally there was Penny from Big Bang Theory. Way too young for this old geezer but it didn't stop me from appreciating her acting ability.
