Andrew:

I too am a crab, born in mid July, a post-war "baby-boomer", now in my early 50's. (No, not that kind of crab, except on bad days. Usually, I'm pretty easy to get along with. )

I made my first 35mm changeover in May 1967, and worked my way through college as a projectionist at a drive-in and several "hardtops".

Andrew, this may have been well intentioned, but there are identity thieves that only need to know one's date of birth and mother's maiden name to make life miserable.
DOB, social security # for U.S. residents, and personal info aren't good things to post on the web until dead.

Andrew:

Jerry's advice is good advice. Note that I gave you information to answer your question politely, but no details. These are open forums and public newsgroups, and what you post may be read by anyone.

Perhaps his question could be answered with age and "winter/spring/summer/fall".

Thanks Rachel...

It actually is my birthday today. My wife was still asleep when I left the house, so you were the first one to say it.

34... seems a whole lot like 33 for some reason.

33 was a good year though, I became a father for the first time and I bought my first 35mm projector. I still can't figure out which is more time consuming!!

No longer active in the craft but with a renewed interest since I found Film-Tech about 18 months ago. Thank you Brad.
And again for Brad, your 16 interlock video is great. I'd love to have tried it when my legs could handle the distance.

Bruce...Nah! Old Goats are United States Navy Retired CPO's and Retired United States Marine Corps M/SGTs and above. We sometimes smell like them, too.

I've been ignoring this thread for the longest time because the subject title looked boring. But what the hell, I might as well join in.

Here's Mine :

34 / Fall

Posted by Paul Konen (Member # 41) on 02-27-2001, 12:10 PM:

36 / Spring / Aires or Taurus depending on whose chart you use.

Posted by Tim Reed (Member # 137) on 03-02-2001, 03:36 PM:

Starin' right down the barrel at 40 here, in just months! I'm older than I'm told I look... I know I sure feel older than I am (insert favorite fat joke here)! Not really. Actually, I still see myself as 18 or 20. I still like to watch cartoons, and women are still attractive to me. Those are good signs.

Although I've felt that kids were playing their music too loud, back when I still WAS one. Call me old-fashioned, but to this day, I don't get the concepts of rap, MTV, or jabbing a piece of metal through your tongue and leaving it there.

Since my teens, my best friends have usually been 15-20 years older than me. Maybe that explains it.

I use my birthdate as the password into all the digital processors that I set up. Perhaps some of you that have downloaded Dolby CP-500 settings around the midwest know it by now.
1955-Virgo
Perhaps soon, I will have Brad post a picture of me looking up........for some reason or other everyone at Showest can pick me out of a crowd of hundreds with no problem. "Hey, isn't that you looking down?" At least 10 people I don't even know have said that to me today....strange? And I'm only 5 feet 8 inches to begin with.

Mark, that's only because you want to see where you're going. I do that, too, sometimes.

I found out that if I don't, I fall down a lot!
