In the past couple of weeks both Gary Gygax (the creator of Dungeons and Dragons) and Arthur C. Clarke (the author of god know how many science fiction novels) died - it is pretty embarrassing to think how much influence these two had over me in my formative years.
Outside of whatever crap they made us read in school, I quite literally read nothing by sci-fi and D&D rulebooks... man, I'm getting old. On that note, I found the first white hair in my beard the other day. Combined with the 1-2 white hairs I have on top of my head, the long straggly hairs I now have growing out of my ears and the one nasty mole thing that appeared on my back (that I picked and picked at until I scraped it off), I am definitely getting old!
