Is it just me ?

Or does everyone else think of oven chips whenever Senator John McCain is mentioned ?

Me too!

I rechristened him King Harry McCain two years ago for random party-related reasons, and it has stuck. I'm not sure 'King Harry' means much to people younger than me, but perhaps it does?

King Harry doesn't ring any bells with me, but I'm not always a good indicator for my age-range.

Pratchett reference says Harry King from The Truth and Going Postal/Making Money is the self-made businessman, 'King of the Golden River' but I suspect that this is a note to the original source rather than your context.

I think I'm a tiny bit younger than Venta.

beckyl is politely avoiding pointing out that venta is an old git and she is not ;)

Actually, I have no idea how old you are. Without trying to check in some manner (probably simple, but I was being lazy) my mental default says you're older than me, and younger than grumblesmurf, and that you're closer to my age than his. That still leaves a six year span, plus the perfectly valid possibility of me being completely wrong.

But don't let me stop you claiming old git-dom if you want to.

Alright, so not following two clicks to your LJ bio info is really lazy, but you're only two years older than me.

Good heavens, really ? For some reason I had it in mind that there was a much bigger gap than that. OK, in that case either I rescind my claim, or you may join me in old git-dom, whichever you prefer.
