Tyme Turns 60 Today

Written by Scrivs on June 6, 2006

This is embarrassing. I remembered everyday when Tyme’s birthday was and the day it occurs it doesn’t hit me until 9:45 at night. I am such a horrible CEO and friend, but you already knew that. In any case, we are blessed to have a senior citizen on our team. She is easily the coolest, ornery black woman I have ever dealt with and I would trade her in for the world.

She has made my job so much easier and for that I can only say thank you and we wish you 60 more wonderful years on this planet.

    Wait a second, that means he just turned 60 on 6/6/06! I envy the fact that you didn’t notice that.

    Ummmmmm…Tyme is a woman so the Woman turned 60 on 06/06/06. Creepy.

  6. Ben Gray Says:

    Happy birthday! One question, does the rheumatoid arthritis interfere with coding? Just curious because I’ll be there one day ;).

  7. Shawn Anthony Says:

  9. Tyme White Says:

    LMAO Thank you! 60 wow, who knew?

    Ben - when I get there, I’ll let you know! :)

    Scrivs - thank you! Today was crazy. You’re the best CEO and friend…I wouldn’t (note I said wouldn’t unlike someone else) trade you for the world. :)

  10. Mike Rundle Says:

    Hahahah “who knew HE turned 60 today?!”

    Possibly the best quote ever considering Tyme is a beautiful young woman in her 20s :)

  11. Lindsay Says:

    Happy birthday Tyme! My birthday was yesterday, June 5th. Geminis secretly rule the world. ;)

  12. Joe Anderson Says:

    A Happy Generic Birthday!

    Am I the only one who noticed this:

    “and I would trade her in for the world.”

    And I thought “She is easily the coolest, ornery black woman”, guess not.

  15. Volkher Hofmann Says:

    All the best, Tyme, and thanks for all the great work you do for us!

    And I thought I was the resident old geek around here. ;)

  16. Konstantinos Says:

    Happy birthday Tyme!

  17. Kyle Johnson Says:

    Truly wise at 60, have a good one!

  18. David Demchuk Says:

    I see from Tyme’s blog that she was between 35 and 40 a year or two ago :) So still a bit shy of 60, and a youngster to some of us!

    Hope you had a great birthday, Tyme, and here’s to many more!

    A wonderful tribute to your mentor/colleague.

    Just check your post one more time for a key missing word. [Hint: "not" is missing at a crucial moment you mean to make a point about how you'd never lose her for anything] It’ll make a difference…and re-confirm your respect for her. Otherwise, we have to do some semantic gymnastics along the way!

    Cheers, Christian

    Happy birthday, best wishes, enjoy the day!!

  21. Tyme Says:

    Thank you! Responses like this make all the hard (but oh so fun) work worthwhile!

    I haven’t hit 40 yet. The thought of 60, wow…thank goodness that’s a long ways off because I’m not ready. :)

  22. Bryan Veloso Says:

    Happy birthday Tyme! :D
    You’re what keeps us all in line, it’s so awesome to have you here.

    [...] If you listen to ScrivsTyme you’ll agree these are both dead on. No, I did not mess with the quizzes for them to come out female, it just happened. When I’m good, I’m really really good. When I’m bad, I’m the devil. [...]
