I feel I'll regret this later, but what the hell, I'm giving it a go:

Why are you showing us a picture of your grandson? How does that help us? Does he look like you?

Car: Mustang
Lake: Gimmee a break! We're supposed to identify it from that?? Um. Grenadier Pond.

Right on the car, and the lake is Lake Coeur d'Alene...

Huh. Phew.

First I was sure, then I went to check what year, and I couldn't find a year that had those flank scoops and I began to doubt myself. But I stuck with it. :smile:

That's a photo of you when you were 17, MotoH?! You look like a 7 yr old kid who borrowed Borek's moustache...:biggrin:
 
  • #3,788
Well, my photos actually are of me at 17... So ha!

In other news, are you high? I don't look that good, I think...

Okay, here's a hint, Char. When very nice ladies say you're a spiffy looking guy, the correct response is not, "are you high?" The words are, "Aw, gee, thanks. Nice of you to say." Or words to that effect.

You look 15 in those. :-p

And listen to Georgina. "Aww shucks, I don't really think so, but thank you" may be cute to some but "Are you high?" doesn't usually pan out well. ;-)

I don't know why, but my post where I revealed that "Are you high?" was a joke disappeared...

I blame... spinning the blame-o-meter... Nancy Pelosi!

Yeah, that really was a joke... and I want my post back!

Earlier this week, we had an outage (the PF hard drive died) and about ~4 hours of posts could not be restored, unfortunately.

Don't mind my Jewish/Italian nose, I know it takes up most of the picture, but try and look around it.

Can I not look like Tom Selleck and a Jewish Scandinavian?

I don't think you're hairy enough to be Tom Selleck.

We really do have a problem if you think Italy is in Scandinavia...

This is true.:rolleyes: Pure bred Scandinavian here (if you count England); almost purely Swedish.

I define Scandinavia as the large peninsula sticking out of Russia and containing three nations. Yep, I don't even count Denmark as part of it. England definitely isn't.

MotoH, what a subtle way of demonstrating your body muscles.

England is definitely a stretch, but I've seen it done before.

I understand your first name was Erwin at the time.

If I would have called it a Jew nose, I would have gotten in trouble.

Yes. I was later accused of being part of a plot to kill the Fuhrer so I took cyanide.
