in high school i topped out at a 115 lbs., programed in 5 languages, had a serious white boy fro, and always had my glasses in disrepair. 24 years later and a new year and i say to myself, yeah i’m finally cool! Seconds later, delivered by “short circle karma”, i hit myself in the face with the refrigerator door. Glasses snapping in half cleanly. It’ll be two weeks before i get new glasses in (read special order progressive trifocals) . So if you look for me in tampa next week, i’ll be the nerdy one minus the fro of-course… HAPPY NEW YEAR !
What were the languages? COBOL, BASIC, Pascal, C, FORTRAN and… hmmm… ADA?

hi simon,
that would be COBOL, RPG-II and III, Fortran 4, a little pascal, BASIC of course, and some Assembly.
Too Funny!!! Have to say though you are still cool even with the tape!
I’m afraid I’m going to have to give in and start the bi-focals. All those little numbers on the top of my nikon are starting to get fuzzy unless I look “under” my glasses.
Be Cool!

that is awesome. coolness is a state of mind.
uggghhh..and I am missing a great “make fun of John moment”. Take note—by this time next year photographers all around the world will have tape on their glasses—“John does it…so it must be cool”.
