**
Kotick** – You’re a guy! (I bet that’s not news to you.) I guess I thought otherwise because of the handwriting on your Doper sea slug valentine.
[hijack] Did you ever get the one I sent? [/hijack]
Hey! No idea… I don’t get up that way often these days.
Likewise, I thought he wasn’t a he. Maybe it was the lovely handwriting for me as well.
Yes, did our (Me & Tripler) Valentine come to you yet?
Are you insinuating that I have a girlish handwriting (sniff)… oh well, I glad all that loopyloop writing excercises we had to do up at the blackboard in the first grades turned out something 
(imagine a bunch of seven year old brats standing up there with a long paintbrush and glass of water each struggling to make those loopy a’s and b’s and so on. Small waterwars were of course inevitable but quickly stopped by Ms Wormwood)
And yes, Freckafree, thanks for the ingenious valentine packed with sweets 
Ahm schavoring de lascht on now 
Yes, **Nawt Chucka **& Tripler, I did get it
And you two do look like a perfect match!
Then:
At my nadir of health & zenith of weight:
Now:
Wow, Veuve! Looks like you really got a handle on things - you look wonderful! (Your “then” photo looks so much like an old HS friend of mine that I did a double-take there, too.)
Thank you - some days I do better than other days 
Here’s another picture since I’m back to red(dish) hair now:
The blonde one is highly Glamour Shot-ted 
I had been blonde so long I had forgotten my original color. When I finally decided to go to red, I found my senior picture & realized that was pretty much my old color! I like it so far.
I’m just thrilled to be healthy again.

I was talking to your better half, dork.
Heavens, no! You have very purty handwriting, and legible, too. It seems to be an uncommon combination in males…
Don’t hate me because I’m more beautiful-er-ish and stuff.

Late to this thread, but what the hell.
This was taken right after a recent haircut. Unfortunately, my hair has since slid into something much less chic due to my hatred of mornings.
(Please ignore the laundry in the background)
Okay, I hope this works…here I am.
This is the only digitized picture of me. It’s a publicity-type head shot I needed when I was doing some broadcast announcing about four or five years ago. Why they needed a photo when all they wanted was the voice is still a puzzle to me, but at least it left me with (IMHO), a fairly nice photo.
I’'ve grown a beard since, but…it’s still me.
It works.
What laundry? And do you realize you look nothing like your user name?
Here’s one taken by a 7-year-old. Turned out better than most of mine do.
HEY! I’m on to your cunning ways! There is no laundry. koff
And you were expecting me to look like this? 
I don’t have any pictures of me yet, but here’s my 11 month old Susie.
The middle picture is her at 10 months. The last one in the robe is her most recent. We were trying to get her to stand up, but the slippers must have felt weird on her feet because she refused to put her feet on the floor. It’s still one of my favorite pictures of her.
That’s a great picture, Spoons. A penetrating stare. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen it before.
Note to others: with the beard, his usual ponytail, and going to law school, he now looks like “D. R. Spoons, Desert Lawyer”. Especially after acting as an extra in that Western.
VCNJ, you impress me.
