My hair has grown a little since I made the pic in the avatar. :biggrin:

Would that be your head hair or your beard hair Astronuc? I have to say I really admire that beard, its awesome.

:biggrin: That would be the hair on my head. The beard grows more slowly. I'd like to be able to tuck it into my belt, like the dwarves do in LOTR, but I don't think it will ever be that long. :biggrin: Nevertheless, I'll keep trying.

Well that all depends on how high your belt is! If you've heard of Patrick Moore or ever seen him, I suspect if you took on board his fashion sense you'd be able to get your beard down there next week! :wink:
 
Here I am snorkling in Cozumel, Mexico. It wasn't until much later that I found out I was supposed to put my face into the water and open my eyes. :redface:

I am similarly afflicted in water due to all the horrible animals you can't see and the fact I sink like a stone rather than float like most people. Although where you were not being able to see animals would be the least of the problems! Looks lovely :smile:

As I was digging through old photos for the latest photo contest, I came across this one of me with my sister. I was about 11 in the photo

though this photo was taken in the early 80s). :smile:
So you were 11 in the early 80ties, say 82, than you were born in 71 so you are 35 right now. Am i close ?

marlon, your best friend

That's why I can't swim in murky water...you DON'T KNOW WHAT'S UNDER YOU!
 
That's some clean water your swimming in Evo. You can see all the way to the bottom.

I hope your just kidding.....right?

Yes, I'm kidding, I just noticed that in three shots of me snorkling, I had my eyes closed in all three.
 
nice pics, everyone.
i don't have any current pictures...
 
OK, I can't hold out anymore. The first one is me doing my "Paulie Walnuts" routine inbetween rounds of a game of shuffleboard. The second one is me and *melinda* (yes, she gave me permission to post it).

OH, what a cute couple you two make! :smile:

It's about time you came out of the closet.
 
More than 4600 posts without considering to post a pic of yourself? :bugeye:

Thanks for sharing these really nice shots! :smile:
 
Well, you handsome devil, no wonder you've been keeping your identity a secret! You must have known that none of the female members here would ever be able to do anything but sit and drool over your photo once it was posted! No wonder women struggle in math classes...who could concentrate with such a cute calculus professor?! :!)
 
Is it only me who feels like taking a calculus course with Tom?:-p I swear I'd get an A...
 
Kurdt said:
I hope you don't mind me saying Tom but you remind me of principal Skinner. Perhaps its just the hair although I'm one to talk about haircuts *looks like a hippy* :wink:
OMG HE DOES

Not me. I'd pretend not to understand so I could stay after class for some special help from my teacher. :-p

Going for extra credit? :biggrin:
 
Is there one thread where the PF sisters DON'T defile the PF name?
 
Here is a more recent pic as promised. To redress the simpsons comment maybe some people might like to say I look like Otto the school bus driver. :biggrin:

No idea why I'm standing like that. Your guess is as good as mine.
 
Wow! I guess Danger and Moonbear would love your Tshirt, Kurdt.:smile:

Now I got it why some people never pass some of their courses!:wink:

My hair doesn't usually look like that. I hadn't had a haircut in way too long, hence the moptop. I usually keep it high and tight.

ARRRGHH! Damn you for beating me to the "Otto" wisecrack! :wink:
