Well, I dont know why, but I was curious to see how old I am in days. I went one step further and found out how many seconds old I am.

Feel free to do the same.

By a strange twist of fate, I cliked on the link, input my details, and I was exactly 51366000 seconds old. Weird huh?

Oh and be warned, you may spend hours sat staring at how long you have to wait until your next birthday... dont say I didnt warn you.

I have been alive

864695200 seconds ( surely i have been alive longer!! I have counted to higher values )

and have to wait

218 days, 22 hours, 52 minutes, 55 seconds

Just keep watching - it'll be there in no time -

I've been alive 1321575204 seconds

On the plus side - I've only 44 days, 23 hours, 45 minutes, 33 seconds to wait 'til my birthday .

There might be a MAJOR system overload if Mandrake tries this, so everybody better try and use this before Mandrake - I'm not sure if the system will be able to handle all those digits (only joking Mandrake )

I put my details in and it just said, 'OK Peter Pan, stop mucking about'.....

If I had £1 for every second I've been alive, I would be nowhere near the top twenty richest people in the world. I would have a paltry £1,000,000,000 (one billion pounds).

well I've been around for 786822764 seconds

oh wait that should be 786822768 seconds

oh now it's 786822776 seconds

Aw, you're just a baby compared to us billionaires.

Now what would be freaky would be if there was a box on that page saying "You have ................ seconds left" (or words to that effect)

On second thought, I'd rather not know at this moment in time.

at the time of writing, give or take twenty seconds...

1119306998 seconds old...

here's to the next 30 seconds!

Yes, that would be more up my street!

You can, of course, reverse-engineer birth dates from this. For example,

That's approximately 24 years and 347 days.

365 days in a year minus 347 days leaves 18 days.

Therefore you seem to have a birthday coming up around 17 February or thereabouts.

I probably won't send you a present (if only because I don't know your postal address, which makes it tricky) but have a happy birthday anyway.

Well apparently the date that I shrug off this mortal coil is Saturday December 26th 2037.

It's nice that I get to see Christmas. And a Saturday too. That'll p*ss the undertaker right off - he'll have just settled down to watch the Eastenders Chrimbo special when he gets the call.

Bury me with my broken wand.

And I want "Science Fiction Double Feature" from Rocky Horror Show playing once everyone is seated at my funeral. And as the casket disappears from view I want the theme from Buffy.

Three days after being buried I insist that an angry mob from the local village storm the graveyard, dig up my old stiff bones, and chop off my head to ensure that I can no longer worry the local virgins.

Apart from that just a quiet CoE service please.
