Who is the oldest Castanetter out there?
I just read sobrohusfat's comment in the ban someone thread commenting about nib's age.
It is quite amirable to be advanced in age and take what time you have left on this earth to share your wisdom with us. (Yes, I truly mean that).
I have to confess I have been lying about my age; I am actually 100 years old.
So the question is who is the SECOND oldest castanetter?
nibs, Al Czervic, Nab, homeownertoo, Jo, or someone else?
Edit to Add: as a subplot, who is the youngest on here?
It would also be interesting to calculate the average age because it seems the Castanet average is far higher than the average internet user.

For some reason, I thought you were closer to my age. I was born in the late 70s.

Glace, yuh gotta stop taking my name in vain.
Twice now you have used me as an excuse for starting a thread.
More interesting would be who has the highest IQ.
I suspect that its either HMNI or Soulbrother.
And if you are 100yo and born in the 70's one of you is lying.

I'm too old to remember what the question was.

The trouble with having an open mind, of course, is that people will insist on coming along and trying to put things in it.

I'm as old as dirt. My birth certificate is on the Dead Sea scrolls. When we walked to school we had to watch out for dinosaurs.

I was a teenager when Christ was a Corporal. Methuselah was a spring chicken compared to me.
