Spike's comment in Once More With Feelings was a Joss Whedon tribute to a famous musical.

Meredith Willson wrote the song "76 trombones" for the musical The Music Man, which was a hit both on Broadway and as a 1962 musical motion picture.

Statistically speaking, you're closer to the three-quarters mark.

Happy birthday!

I'm 27 now, and a friend recently informed me I was to stop chasing 18-year-old poon.

My question is: At what age am I just a silly old man and it becomes acceptable to start again?
Or is it more of a question of net worth and just taking on a gold-digger?

So any words of wisdom that you could impart on us younger folks? You know... words of wisdom that we could ask our parents for, but instead opt to listen to some old guy from the internet we barely even now.... :p
