			Yes, he seems like an absolutely normal non-antipode to me, too. That said, very cool impression, Inzil.

 TGEW, you should consider handing out insulin with those pictures - the two of you are just too sweet together! Impressive backdrop too. Here's a recent one of me, documenting a serendipitous encounter with a representative of the order Lepidoptera.

 You could always update your pic, though. I'll bet the ravages of Time are not as severe as you might fear.

			Here! Since all that I have on my phone are rather bad selfies with (breaking news) my dog, you'll get (drumroll) a wedding picture!

			Sadly, we seem to have become a bit more Entish around here. Or maybe it is just me.

			Being it is Tigerlily Gamgee's birthday, it got me to looking at this thread she created. I guess I was surprised that the photo page still worked. Twenty years ago when that pic of me was taken, I had hair ... long hair ... still flew my 1970's freak flag even though it was getting a bit sparse on top. The greybearding was well underway, and it was a totally different life back then. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	Now, I give myself a #1 buzzcut every six weeks, and the greybearding has progressed to whitebeard. I have a different wife who I love very much, I live on a different continent, and Life is Good!  |

			Since it’s been several years and the last photos I put here seem to no longer exist, except in some wibbly-wobbly internet dead  zone. Here’s a new one with my sister-son. Can’t believe he’ll be turning 3 in a few weeks. You can’t tell him any secrets either, he randomly shouted out a convo from about a month ago telling everyone I liked coffee.
