Age
 
I am 30 ad my wife is 28 the rest of our company are in their early 20's so that forces both of us to stay abreast of the things we said we would never hate but do!

Gene Beasley December 16th, 2005 05:07 PM

Cool - not the oldest for once. -- 50. I still get carded though. Guess that's not saying much anymore.

Shervin Mandgaryan December 17th, 2005 07:29 PM

Does that mean you're tail-less...?

The Chevy Belair wasn't the only great thing made in 1955...50 years old here (a couple of months from 51) and love my video toys. But I'm not too old to learn a bunch of good stuff from you young'uns! So did anyone calculate the average age here? Must be about 30 or so...

Now, this is being very picky and I might even be wrong about it, but I seem to remember that the Chev Belair wasn't introduced until 1956. They brought out their new, modern look and their first V-8 in 1955, but I don't recall a Belair among the model names. That extraordinary Nomad wagon got its start in 1955, however.

For those of us from this era, these fine points of trivia are of the utmost importance. After all, what else did we have to discuss? There were no camcorders, no computers or video games, no portable music or phones and free love hadn't been invented yet. I challenge anyone under the age of 40 to tell how you distinguish a '55 Chev V-8 from a 6-cylinder model (without looking under the hood).

Lorinda Norton January 24th, 2006 03:54 PM

All I remember about the Belair is my sisters teasing my older brother about his "station wagon" and him saying it had a great compartment for concealing a cooler full of beer. :)

18 years. mmm hmmm (had to ass that mmm hmmm to make it to 10 characters) haha

Vincent Croce January 24th, 2006 07:02 PM

No, Steve, you weren't being picky about it, but you were wrong. Chev introduced the '55 Bel Air in '54 with the V8, fins, hooded headlights and everything. They did shorten it for '57, which made the fins stand out even more.
Now, how DO you tell a '55 Chev V8 from the 6 without lifting the hood?

Steve Madsen January 24th, 2006 09:29 PM

32, though mistaken by girl at work today for a 22 yo. Late starter in this game, but I haven't given up acting aspirations just yet :)

Thanks for the jeans, Mum.

Nick Weeks January 24th, 2006 09:44 PM

23, computer-guy turned video-guy

I work with PCs all day, and I'm starting to get into the professional side of video production. I'm starting my own business on the side, wish me luck.....

Brandon T Jackson January 27th, 2006 01:10 AM

OK, I am corrected about the year of the first Belair. The '55 V-8s were distinguished from the 6s, by two very small, chrome Vs, right below the taillights. They had the same Chev brand badge in the centers of the trunk and engine hoods, on both V-8s and 6s. Beginning in '56, this badge was used only on the 6s, with large, chrome Vs on both hoods, on the V8s. Classify this as information as close to being useless as is possible-----on a par with knowing how to tell a '58 T-Bird from a '59, without looking underneath at the springs.

James Challenger February 1st, 2006 08:58 AM

Well, I remember well my first look at a video camera in my hands.....back to 1989, a Sony Hi8 V-5000.....heavy!

Andrew Todd March 6th, 2006 09:21 AM

I was sailing last July and ended up in Boston for my 20th birthday. Yes it was absolutely the worst birthday ever becuse your (im referring to you americans) country says im too young to drink a beer.. when i used to be in quebec i turned legal age 2 years before when i was 18.. i was very dissapointed..and had to spend my birthday drinking in the bar on my ship that i had been stuck in fo the past month.. but to make up for it 10 days later we were in st. john's, newfoundland on george street which has the most bars per capita than any other city in the world. George street ... bar after bar after bar after bar after bar..etc...
come to canada.. see the sites... and george street

63 3/4, in Adrian Mole terms.

I started editing audio on a wire recorder believe it or not, way back in 1960.

Joe Lumbroso March 6th, 2006 12:23 PM

A whoppin' 24 years. Most of my friends are over 40. Is that a good sign?

Some research might help: Try singing "You make me feel so old, etc" Note their reactions. Then try "I make you feel so young" and compare reactions.

But then perhaps you're not old enough to have heard Dean or Frank or Bing singing at all. Silly me, sure they're probably not old enough either.

Bob Koza March 8th, 2006 09:27 AM

how old am I
 
I thought I was 58 my last birthday. My wife said I was 59. She's right. Come to think of it, 57 seemed to last a couple of years.

Dino Santoro March 8th, 2006 09:45 AM

I'm 33 going on 34.
