15 Year Old Daughter: “What’s wrong with me dating an 18 year old?”

Me: “Remember when I was teaching you how to drive? Before you pressed the break for the first time, I said, ‘Now press the break pedal gently.’ And the car immediately came to a jarring halt. And you asked, ‘How come you didn’t warn me that would happen?’ And I said, ‘There is no way I could have warned you what kind of pressure was needed to properly stop a car going 10 miles per hour. It’s something you have to experience yourself.’

15 Year Old Daughter: “Yeah.”

Me: “That’s what it is going to feel like years from now when you look back at dating an 18 year old”.

My friend Boisy recently brought to my attention a wonderful web site called Computer Archeology. Christopher Cantrell’s site has many disassembles of old programs. But of particular note is the old Color Computer programs with very detailed comments. Go check it out.
