holy ****! I'm *that* much older than you?


Darn infants! Born 11/10/36


Hey, hey, hey!! You're exactly 30 years younger than the Marine Corps -
to the day!! ;-)

I didn't remember the age of the Marine Corps, but I knew it was the same
birthday.


Hint: it wasn't *19*06 to which jo4hn was referring. ;-)

But by way of trivia, it wasn't '06 in any century. The Marines were
formed by act of the Second Continental Congress on 10 November 1775.

I stand corrected. It was only 24 years younger. ;-)
