At the Ubuntu Devlopers' Summit in Boston - Getting Older

[jbailey]

It's strange being here at UDS-Boston-2007. I realised that this would've been the next time I'd have seen my old coworkers *anyway*. Working remotely meant that I really was glad to go to these, and I still am.

I turned 32 a couple of days ago, which I was pleased to discover is 2^5. According to Wikipedia, it is also a Powerful Number. I like the sound of that. =)

powers of 2

When I was 32, if someone asked me my age, I would reply, "My age is a power of two," and leave it at that -- figuring it would be obvious that I was neither 16 nor 64. I think I was only asked once during that year, though, somewhat to my disappointment.

And, of course, when my sister gave me a mixed CD for my birthday, it had a series of 32nd notes on the cover.
