Nice picture turbo.
 
  • #2,314
Thanks - we were living pretty "close to the bone" then and had the portrait done only because it was part of a freebie-coupon promotion that was being sold by a local charity group. It's my favorite picture of the two of us. We are older now, but our taste in comfortable clothes hasn't changed much.
 
  • #2,315
I share the same taste in clothing - when I dress formally - otherwise it's cutoffs and T-shirt, or preferably cutoffs and tanktop - or when gardening or yard work just cutoffs. I do wear steel-towed boots when working with tools (shovel, pick, . . .) and tiller.
 
  • #2,316
You can just barely see it under the hair, but my sister had embroidered roses on the shoulder-panels of that denim shirt - that WAS my dress shirt!

Dear ToxicBug, why the serious look? Your Vector Calculus posts are so light-hearted! :smile: Thanks for being you...really. :smile:
 
  • #2,319
I'm a very serious person, however when I make a joke, people take me seriously, so its really fun then.
 
  • #2,320
I tend to lurk around here more then anything, but eh, I'll post myself.
This was taken... eh, I'd say a month ago? Maybe a little longer? I don't know. It was 2:30 in the morning...
(Hoping it works for me...)

I'm much the same. I tend to fairly serious about matters, which is why I think British humor, particularly Monty Python, appeals to me.

SimplySolitary_, Nice photo! You look marvelous!

Why thank you, both Astronuc and fargoth! Makes me feel better about adventuring after 1am into a gas station... :smile: I'm always so afraid of scaring a poor cashier. :)
 
  • #2,324
Young lady, what are you doing at a gas station after 1 am!?

You should be home asleep. :biggrin:

Sorry, it's just the dad in me. :rolleyes: :smile:
 
  • #2,325
Doesn't everyone go to the gas station after hours for a can of Diet Dr. Pepper and a hot pocket?!
 
  • #2,326
Well, after a concert, my friends and I would go drive the loop around the city, or drive to the airport and ride the subway, and/or drive down to the beach, which was about 90 miles away and just run around during the night, watch the sunrise, get breakfast, then maybe sleep, then go play frisbee or football. We would occasionally find time to study - probably between midnight and 0400. :biggrin:

But you young folk should not do what we did back then. :rolleyes: :smile:
 
  • #2,327
Ah, but future generations must learn from their own mistakes. At least, in this case... :)

Astronuc: Isn't it a pain getting hassled by the cops for playing frisbee in the bank parking lot at 3am? Once, a friend and I started hitchhiking home after a club closed at 1am, and we hadn't gotten a ride after walking 5 miles, so we decided to just hike the remaining 20 miles. I got home just as my dad was waking up and he said where have you been? I told him that my buddy and I had just hiked 25 miles back from the club and he shook his head.
 
  • #2,333
Actually, I knew quite a few cops, which helped. And strangely, even with my long hair and beard, I never really got hassled. The few times I did get hassled, someone else was driving.

My parents more or less gave up worrying about where I was, and I left home at 17 anyway.

If you can prove that you didn't retouch that picture, it should make a fine entry in the 'Things That Go Bump in the Night' contest.

Despite your gray hair, you must be younger than I am - in my high-school days, the cops in rural Maine often conformed to the Boss Hawg stereotype. In college (1970, I think) I got picked up for hitchhiking in the dead of winter. The cop demanded that I open my guitar case in his overheated cruiser. I refused, saying that it would craze the finish on an expensive Gibson (very true) and said that if wanted to take me to the station and wait until the guitar warmed up gradually that I would open the case. He didn't want to wait and let me back out in sub-zero weather and shadowed me for another mile or two to make sure that I did not hitchhike within his jurisdiction. That's not to say that there were no good cops, but that the bad ones would hassle a "long-haired hippie" just for fun.

Yep, met a few of those in Texas and elsewhere. I just kept smiling. :cool: :biggrin:

Most of the cops I knew were fairly nice, decent dudes, who used to tell me shave and get a hair cut. :smile: They were nice about it though.

But I had friends who got hassled a lot to the point where they really felt uncomfortable around cops.

Maybe it's because I was very laid-back - my wife thinks too laid-back sometimes. :rolleyes:

Yeah, if you push back on a cop because he is hassling you for no reason, the "push" becomes a reason, even if it's only at the level of "I'm not breaking any laws, so why don't you leave me alone and go catch someone who is breaking a law?". For some reason, that one seemed to get 'em pretty worked up. Assertion of one's constitutional rights would elevate the chance that you would be rapped up 'side the head with a nightstick.
 
  • #2,338
Man, you guys have bad luck with cops. I guess being a woman helps. I've only had a run in once, and I was wearing a skirt, so I was pretty much let off... it's sad, to a point, that some cops are like that... it worked out for me, though! :)
 
  • #2,339
Actually, back then, I was remarkably lucky. :rolleyes:

But let's just leave it at that. :biggrin: :cool:

The fact that you are an attractive woman (and about 35 years of civil -rights struggles since I was your age) give you a 'way better chance that we got. There are people who won't get that consideration for one reason or another.

My nephew is career Navy and is damned good at his job. He is married to a lovely black lady with a very sweet black daughter, and they are both dear to us. That's working out OK in San Diego and here in Maine - it would not play well in other parts of the country, and would get him hurt or killed in some places, if the race-roles were reversed. That is sad.

Cheers

Overworked, tired, stressed.
 
  • #2,344
Why stressed?
Stress is the root of all mental evil. It's better to keep on without stress. Anyway, is stress a must in our lives? Or is it caused by specific kind of behavior and way of thinking that may be changed anytime?

Nothing in my life is going right. Oh, well it could be worse.
 
  • #2,346
Is it wrong just because you think it's wrong, or because everyone around you tells you it's wrong?
How would you describe the "right life" from your point of view?
And also, do you get any spare time in a day? It's important tooo :)
Hehe, if it can be worse, then it isn't so bad probably :)
