what's so good about being eighteen?
in my opinion these should be the milestones of life:
13 and three quarters: Adrian Mole's age.
17: Jacqueline was seventeen.
20: End of teenagedom.
22: Grand job. (In the city it's alright...)
23: Feeling twenty-three. Acting seventeen.
25: Lower age limit for space travel.
30: We'll get married when we're thirty. I wanna do it on your birthday.
33 and a half: Legal grandparenthood possible.
35: Half of biblically allotted lifespan.
36: Have now been an adult longer than a child.
40: Upper age limit for space travel.
41: Have outlived John Lennon.
55 (approx.): Have lived for 20 000 days.
64: Last possible sixth power. (Will you still need me, will you still feed me, when I'm sixty-four??)
70: Biblical death.
81: You have lived one year for every box in a Sudoku. Congratulations.
82: Hairnets and dogfood. I'm EIGHTY-TWO.
120: I'm A HUNDRED AND TWENTY. I'm A HUNDRED AND TWENTY.
165: Have outlived Albus Dumbledore.

yes, i have to agree that working out how old i'll be when i've lived for 20 000 days was possibly the most pointless thing i've ever done....
I would have to say that some of those are good and some are not so, I would dispute that the age of 9 must be on there because then you gain a conscience, apparently. Also 18 should be made something awesome - you can do loads of stuff - and 16 also, purely for being able to play the lottery. I feel that we should include the age of 19, when you realise that you're old or soon will no longer be that child...or so we're led to believe.
