The calendar and the mirror - they're bastards.
The 50s were great because I collected stamps.
When you're 20 years old and you're making points with volume and dynamism, it's a fantastic thing to do.
It's crucial that I kind of keep up, without drifting into the backslapping land of cliche and lifetime achievement awards.
I can find my way from 500 A.D. through to 1066 pretty well as an amateur historian.
It's funny, you know - time does travel pretty quickly, and I do have good friends, and the further away I go from them in location, it matters that I keep on the same line and the same groove that I had and preserve that groove with people who I see seldom.
