That is old King's Cross station in London, probably around late forties.  It was massively remodeled in the 1960's through to present time and now could be a station just about anywhere.

 

Looks like this now

But at least it boasts platform 9 3/4 from the Harry Potter movies.

Reminds me as a prop for the joke.

 

Married man brings glass of water and 2 aspirin to wife.

 

Wife:  "What's this for, I don't have a headache...?"

 

MM:  "Well then..." (starts undoing his belt)

 

I think it's from the 60s that joke, when the running gag was "not tonight, I have a headache".

Could you write, without too much trouble, code that expresses the fact that my faux-nephew Colin is graduating High School next week, to wit: 

Phase I: Childhood : Complete. 
Phase2: Primary School: Complete
Phase 3 (College) Open...

It would be an interesting challenge. No worries if you can't ... Just thought it would be a cool puzzle for him to solve.  Java, C++, does't matter. Whatever you can do.

Me:

/* Don't remember what I did here */

Colin.education_level := Kindergarten;

/* ...more hand-waving... */

Colin.education_level := elementary_school;

while (Colin.education_level <= 6) do

    Colin.childhood();

 

Colin.education_level_completed := elementary_school;

Colin.education_level := high_school;

while (Colin.grade_level < 12) do

    Colin.adolescence();

 

Colin.education_level_completed := high_school;

Colin.education_level := college;

while (Colin.education_level_completed <> college) do

    Colin.post_adolescence();
