    Be glad that you look young enough that cashiers/bartenders still ask for your ID.

    I teach an underwater photography class at a university. One night a few years ago, we were going to do a night dive and a thunderstorm rolled in. Scuba diving and lightning don’t mix, so we had to cancel the dive.

    Students were all 21 or 22, and decided they wanted to go to a local pub for dinner, and asked me to join. I decided to go, and when we got to the pub the door guy was taking his job really seriously. He was examining their IDs super close, bending them and shining a flashlight through them, etc. It was taking a while because he was doing this for each of my students.

    When I got to him and started handing over my ID, he just looked at me and said, “You’re good, man.”

    I look forward to the time when my age and the last two digits of my birth year match. It’s impossible to predict or calculate, and not even world best supercomputers can comprehend it.
