1. Dude that second one is really Ozzy

:hide: I kid.. Nice pictures.
Must have felt pretty cool to rub elbows with the big boys.

[RetroLounge]

21. Yeah, it did feel good...

:hi:

RL

p.s. "ozzy" is 61 and could kick both our asses...

[Guava Jelly]

32. Probably so

Well anyhoo I'll add a mugshot to your thread.

[Radio_Lady]

74. GoPsUx, you look like actor Colin Firth... I love your face!

Anybody ever told you that?



He's in the new movie "Mamma Mia!" -- just saw it last week.

[Guava Jelly]

80. I have been told that a few times on this board

at least 3 times maybe 4
I have also been told (depending on the picture and the year taken) that I look like everyone between Mark Linn-Baker and Marlon Brando.
I'll take the Brando :) He was a handsome man in his youth(I wish i looked like him). Cousin Larry from Perfect Strangers on the other hand, not so much :silly:

[ghostsofgiants]

2. I am also in posession of new photos!

I look hella young with short hair.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

4. is that a new tattoo?

[ghostsofgiants]

6. Got it back in February.

[RadiationTherapy]

5. I am not sure that 'hella' covers it.

The women must LOVE you!

[ghostsofgiants]

39. Actually they hate me because I am scrawny as hell.

:P

[RadiationTherapy]

42. Meh. I know how that crap works.

I was always a pretty big dude who thought most women wanted thinner, smaller guys.

My thinner, smaller friends disagreed. I later learned that women, mostly, aren't as visual as men.

I think being an artist is a huge plus for you.

[ghostsofgiants]

48. Took me months to win my girlfriend over because I'm a skinny kid.

She's always dated bigged dudes.

[Radio_Lady]

73. Here's the short skinny kid I dated in 1956... we went steady for four years.

Later, I ended up marrying this guy who was practically bald, but not overweight. We've been together for 37 years.

Wedding Day 1973

If it's any consolation, he's my Mr. Dreamy and he won't win any beauty prizes!

[Midlodemocrat]

16. Jeebus, you are flat out adorable.

[ghostsofgiants]

18. Haha, thanks Midlo!

[Radio_Lady]

72. Really fair skinned! Watch that sun! You look young enough to be in high school...

or grade school?

That's what happens when you get old. Young people look younger than springtime!

Nice picture -- you might give it to your dentist! :sarcasm:

Make it a great day!

Radio Lady in Oregon

[ghostsofgiants]

82. Haha, yeah, I'm ridiculously pale.

I don't go outside much. High school is a few years behind me, I'm 23, haha.

[RetroLounge]

22. Dude!

I used to be that skinny.

and the hair looks good.

:hi:

RL

[ghostsofgiants]

40. 6'2", 150 pounds.

If I turn sideways, I disappear. :P

[RetroLounge]

46. Yeah, I was that way...

Then I hit 40...

RL

[DarkTirade]

43. I was that skinny once too...

... back in high school. :P

[RetroLounge]

47. yeah, but you're young enough to remember

high school...

:9

RL

[DarkTirade]

50. Unfortunately my memory started going right around the time high school started...

so I don't remember a whole lot of it. :P

[RetroLounge]

70. I think I forgot it on purpose...

RL

[DarkTirade]

94. I wish I could remember some of it better...

on the whole it wasn't great, but I did have a few good times.

...
.....
... Okay, so she was only an A cup, but at the time it was a pretty big frikkin' deal for me. :P

[RetroLounge]

96. Dude, don't diss the A cups...

embrace them all...

:D

RL

[DarkTirade]

97. Oh, I had NO complaints at the time.

:evilgrin:

[ThomCat]

23. Yes, you look very young with short hair.

But that's okay. You are very young. :P

[ghostsofgiants]

41. Yeah, I'm a young'n, I know.

But I definitely look younger than I am.

[fizzgig]

60. are those your new glasses?

they are damn spiffy

[ghostsofgiants]

62. They are indeed.

:D

[Fran Kubelik]

79. You are ridiculously cute

:bounce:

[ghostsofgiants]

83. Haha, thanks!

:)

[bettyellen]

100. you look too adorable with short hair!

:loveya:

[graywarrior]

3. WOW!

Wow wow wow!

[RetroLounge]

19. Aw

:blush:

:hi:

RL

[RadiationTherapy]

7. That is a NICE lookin fiancee!

What year, make and model is that?

[RetroLounge]

9. She's a woman, not a car.

:eyes:

RL

[RadiationTherapy]

12. Eh. I lose my sense of humor too sometimes.

It's cool.

[RetroLounge]

13. Whatever

RL

[RadiationTherapy]

14. Post.

[RadiationTherapy]

8. Me, my brother and my poor, poor mom.

[flvegan]

10. Me 'n my new dane pup

6 cups of food a day, getting him back up to weight.

[RetroLounge]

11. Aw.. Cute.

Big Boy...

RL

[Midlodemocrat]

17. Aw, what a cutie.

The dog ain't half bad, either. :hug:

[ThomCat]

24. Both of you are adorable.

:)

I'm dog-sitting right now, and I'm finding out that dogs require near-constant attention. I can't believe how much I have been licked and slobbered on today. :P

I have no idea how to help house-train a dog. This puppy is only sometimes using the pad, and I'm killing myself cleaning up after her. But given that she's only here for a few days I don't know how much good my efforts would do me anyway.

I can't imagine handling multiple dogs at once, and big dogs too. :wow:

[Midlodemocrat]

25. Oh, boy. I feel your pain.

The puppy will look right at me and walk AWAY from the pad and/or dog door and squat to pee.

If she weren't so darned cute, I'd strangle her.

[ThomCat]

28. Cats are definitely much, much easier in that regard.

Don't you get to work from home at least some times? That would have to help. It seems like dogs really shouldn't be left alone so much, especially when they are puppies.

House training is definitely a drawback of dogs. You're right, they have to be so darned cute to make up for it. :P

[Midlodemocrat]

31. I work from home all the time

the problem is my office is on the third floor and the puppy and older puppy aren't allowed up here.

Too much rug destruction if you get my drift.

I go down periodically, but :grr: it still drives me nuts. And, the Midlets are no help at all.

[Rhythm]

81. zOMG! You actually posted a NEW pic!

Quick!! Call Congress RIGHT FUCKING NOW!!!1!1

Great pic of you AND the cute spotty pup... glad he's getting better. He's in good hands (literally).

:hi:

[Midlodemocrat]

15. Awesome pics!!!!!

:loveya:

[RetroLounge]

20. Thanks!

:loveya:

RL

[ThomCat]

26. Those are wondeful pictures!

I'm so glad it went so well. Will there be other conferences or seminars like this one?

I hope this is inspiring your writing, and I hope you get to keep in touch with some of those people. :hug:

[RetroLounge]

29. Hi Thom!

Yes, I plan on attending at least one or two of these a year.

and it did inspire my writing. I've written several new poems since returning, and have ruthlessly revised about a dozen others.

The 11 poets from our workshop are keeping in touch via email...

:hi:

RL

[lizziegrace]

27. Are you going back next year?

:)

[RetroLounge]

30. Oh yeah, not going to miss it for the world...

Best week I can remember ever having!

But I cannot believe I never got a picture of hisownpetard and I together...

:hi:

RL

[lizziegrace]

33. I'm sorry you didn't get a photo too

She was your angel and biggest cheerleader in all this.

[RetroLounge]

35. Oh, we spent time together

Just never got a pic. I'll remedy that next time... while I'm digging her pool.

[RevolutionaryActs]

53. Looking handsome as usual RL.

Uh, me... pretending to be super hawt - 'pretend' being the key word. Personally I think I look goofy. :shrug:

[Guava Jelly]

54. You are hawt Rev

Hubba hubba!

[RevolutionaryActs]

55. You're just trying to get on my list.

You can't fool me. :rofl:

[RevolutionaryActs]

59. You're always on the prowl, aren't you?

;)

[Guava Jelly]

64. On 98.999% of the time

:D

[DarkTirade]

57. There's a fine line that seperates goofy and hawt.

... who says you can't cover both sides at the same time? :shrug:

:P

[RevolutionaryActs]

58. Oh, like Cameron Diaz?

Uber hawt and uber dorky? :shrug:

[DarkTirade]

63. Actually I never really found her attractive.

Now the other two Charlie's Angels... Lucy is frikkin' hot, and Drew has that whole cute girl-next-door thing goin' on.

[RetroLounge]

65. Gorgeous AND Goofy are a HAWT combination...

[RetroLounge]

85. 101K?

:wow:

That's a lot of 'k' to be running...

:hi:

RL

[SKKY]

93. Yep, it sure is...

...every year I ask myself, "WTF are you thinking???" Then, around September or October, when the soreness is gone, I get excited about it again. I'm actually doing a 50K this weekend in Granada. I'm fully addicted to running, much like I am golf.

[RetroLounge]

95. I never run unless being chased

:D

RL

[swag]

84. Great photos, RL. What a fantastic way to spend your time.
