That was taken right after I got back from Pennsic Wars, which is a big fun medieval bacchanal in the hills of northwest Pennsylvania.

**Khadaji** , dude, no worries. Iā€™m neither politically correct nor too sensitive about people thinking whatever or not about dames over 40. When youā€™re as crabby as I am you canā€™t be. I thank you for the compliment. Iā€™m old and itā€™s cool; hey, I ainā€™t getting younger, thatā€™s for sure! šŸ˜ƒ ---

**Ginger** , thank you. I remember that dinner and I really enjoyed hanging out with everybody. I have often thought about coming to another Baltimore Dopefest but honestly Iā€™m pretty shy. Martinis definitely help, though! šŸ˜ƒ ---

[This picture](http://www.aahz.com/images/bruddahs.jpg) (Iā€™m the thin one) is now something like ten years old, but I largely look the same. Iā€™m 27 now. And you donā€™t know how happy I am that the company which developed the photo decided that my crotch was the ideal place to stamp their gold-plated logo. :dubious: ---

> [@Misnomer](#): > > So, did you look old for 17 or do you look young for 27? šŸ˜ƒ Probably both, assuming I looked older than 17 in that picture. Both my parents look around 40 for being in their 50s, so I would imagine that Iā€™ll age slow as well. ---

I know that I barely post on the boards at all, especially not in threads such as this but Iā€™m going to throw my [picture](http://i107.photobucket.com/albums/m292/bewaretheb/Picture012.jpg) up here since I am making an effort to start participating more (it took me like 2 years to even register after lurking). Those who are pregnant, easily nauseated, on medications, prone to seizures, or just flat out get scared easily should view with caution. No promises on how long it will be up. Also, it continues to amaze me what a diverse group we truly have on this board. So many attractive/distinctive/interesting looking Dopers, I could literally comment on every last personā€™s picture, but a blanket ā€œyou are incredibly good lookingā€ will have to suffice for now. I love viewing these threads and being able to place faces with names and viewpoints. ---

I donā€™t have a picture of myself, plus, Iā€™m too stupid to know how to post one, so Iā€™ll have to ask **GingeroftheNorth** if she has one of me from the last DopetheHalls. If so, you can post it, Gingy. If not, she can take one next time we do a coffee get-together. ---

Yeah, I had just gotten my hair cut the month before, and Iā€™d forgotten what dirt, humidity and sweat could do to it when it was short. Good Tuchux wench hairstyle, though!
