Wait, I'd like 10 more please. I'm a collector of lists of life wisdom, and yours in right up there, in a league with Kevin Kelly and Annie Lamott.

Happy Birthday, Ian. You might find it interesting to know that you are fast approaching the age of 19000 days (1 week after your 52nd birthday, it turns out). I know this as I just passed the same milestone. It made me feel ancient, but in a good way (as though I had known the dinosaurs personally).
