    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    You're out of the teens already :). You're in the 12s (doesn't have the same ring to it though).

    Soon be in the 9s, or 8s or 7s - in fact just skip the boring sub ten stuff and let's get on to the 90s - now that was a good era :rotfl::rotfl:
