About

The Octogenarian Ski-jumper is a celebration of the achievements of the famous and not-so-famous, arranged according to the age of the person at the time of the achievement. Chapters for those aged 20 to 69 are available here: the full book contains achievements of those ranging from newborns to centenarians. I've been writing nearly all of my professional life; the first piece I ever wrote was a travel article for a company magazine, when I visited in Albania in 1988. I also was the author of Microsoft's initial document on how to apply patches to computers; it made the top ten on their download site.

Story Behind The Book

On my wife's forty-fourth birthday, our son had chicken pox and we couldn't go to a party. Uncharacteristically, she was bemoaning this misfortune. &quot;And I'm forty-four&quot; she said. &quot;No-one ever achieved anything aged forty-four&quot;. This chapter is one of the results of that conversation.
