It seems that there is still hope for those of us in our twilight years (ie older than 40)... www.smh.com.au/executive-style/management/finding-success-later-in-life-20110711-1hady.htmlUnfortunately the above does not apply to deranged sexagenarian hayseeds from the backblocks of Missouri, corpulent pompous know-it-alls from the Louisiana bayou server room, shrill hypocritical pharisees from the Florida badlands or hysterically supercillious fraudsters from Alaska by way of Santa Rosa. ;D

Thank you for the good uplifting news. I've often felt myself a late bloomer. Not due to any immaturity. Instead because of a series of personal failures. At least I'm learning from my mistakes. I should write a book: "What Not To Do"

The most important phrase in your comment "learning from my mistakes" is something a lot of people just don't get.
Experiencing disappointment and failure is something every human being experiences - some small... some large... some repeatedly... and that is a good thing if we learn from them.
Those who simply go through life repeating the same mistakes are doomed to a life of bemused disappointment and frustration; sadly there are a lot of the latter sort in the micronational world.
