A couple recent ones: the beard and makeup are both for a performance of _Lizzie Borden_ (the opera, of course), in which I played the father.

I’ve been rather wary of putting my picture and personal info online. Perhaps overly so, but I thought it best to err on the side of caution. However, the wife has started experimenting with putting photos online, so I asked her to put together a few of us, and I shall now take the plunge and show you what we look like. In the photos below, you can see how we’ve aged over the years. 🙂 You don’t have to open each one individually, but rather just click “Next” once you’re in the first one. [This](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#1) is a very, very old photo of me and the girl who was destined to become Mrs. Siam Sam, on the Big Island of Hawaii. We had been dating for only three or four months, and this was our first trip together. We were both graduate students at the University of Hawaii’s main campus in Honolulu, which is on the island of Oahu. Jumping ahead some years, [here](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#2) we are outside the town of Pokhara, Nepal, in October 1998, an old married couple by now. If you look closely, you can see the mountain called Machhapuchhare poking up out of the clouds. It sort of blends in with the clouds in this photo, being snow-capped. Looked more spectacular in person; this was pre-digital. Pokhara was the last time I spoke with my father, in a telephone call from a phone shop. He suffered an aneurysm the next month and was in a coma until he died five months later. [This](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#3) is us on the Mekong River in northern Laos, October 2000. North of the old royal capital of Luang Prabang. [Here](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#4) we are on the island of Kauai a few years ago during a return visit to Hawaii. [This](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#5) is us on Thailand’s Samet Island about two years ago. Samet is in the Gulf of Thailand off our Eastern Seaboard, relatively close to Cambodia. And [here](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#6) we are last May on the Great Wall of China. And as a bonus, I’m on elephantback [here](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#10), [here](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#11) (#4, the blue shirt on the left) and [here](http://aentz.multiply.com/photos/album/7#12) (again on the left) for the 2006 King’s Cup Elephant Polo Tournament in the town of Bang Saen, in Chiang Rai province of northern Thailand. And any comments comparing my butt with the elephant’s butt in that middle photo will NOT be appreciated. ☹ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doper-picture-thread/446733.md?page=10) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/doper-picture-thread/446733.md?page=12)
