    I think he's started to look a little 'old' in the last year. For some reason I imagined that he was still around 40, so he doesn't look too bad for his age, or the pressure he's under in his role. Still, though, to be 45 and have all that success under his belt - some people wait a lifetime and still don't get 1% of the success he's had.
