I can;t believe he's 42. Some of the people I watched on TV when I was young they're getting older. Its just scary that Jeffrey Townes(Jazzy Jeff) is 42 and Tiffany Amber Thieseen is 33.

Its just hard to believe because the 90's are getting farther and farther away that the people you watched on TV as a kid/teenager are just getting older along with yourself.  Its hard to believe a year like 1995 was 12 years ago.
