Well, as part of my job, I have to check all links, so I went over to Peter Pan’s site. My first reaction: unbridled laughter.

But now I’ve reconsidered - why should I laugh at him? Instead I should give him kudos for following a dream, and daring to be different. You go Peter! If this website is for real and not a spoof, then I take my hat off to him. Acting and dressing the way he does takes a great deal of courage I would think.

Been there, laughed at that. But now, I’m with **Arnold** –he’s doing his thing, he’s not abusing little baby lambs or anything… So who am I to cast judgment?

And he’s even found love!

That Little Lord Fauntleroy get up, though… Yikes.:rolleyes:

I’ve seen that link somewhere around here before. 'Twas in the Pit, I belive. Maybe a search is in order? That thread should be old enough to have survived.

Never saw it here before. A friend of mine over at the JREF Forum turned me on to it. 😉

Nothing particularly exciting about the site. Just bizarre and very funny that’s all. 😉

I’m pretty sure I’ve seen that here twice before. Search isn’t turning anything up. IIRC the last time was in the Pit with a thread title like “Haw haw! Look at this fruit!” or something equally charming and specific.

I have **not** clicked on the link.

He’s become something of a legend amongst net personalities because of that website. Quite well known for a few years.

I say, odd as he may appear, if he’s happy, and more than that, proud to share his eccentricities so publicly, then he definitely deserves some praise. And maybe a bit less laughing at him.

I believe it was a Weird Earl.

The thing I like about Peter Pan-he laughs at himself, and actually encourages others to do so. You can laugh at him-he’s okay with that.

BTW, is he still with Tink?

Tink and Peter are going strong:

[http://www.pixyland.org/peterpan/tinktank.html](http://www.pixyland.org/peterpan/tinktank.html)

Sure, he’s weird, but he’s not hurting anybody by liking to dress up, and I think it’s really cool that he found a woman who shares his interests. Even weirdos need love.

Cool, Peter and Tink have become sort of mini-celebrities on Net. 😉

I found this interesting link on Peter’s page: [http://www.iskip.com/](http://www.iskip.com/)

Scary, interesting, funny, shocking, and bizarre all at the same time!

😃

_Long live Peter and Tink!_

Frankly, the scariest thing on the site is the fact that he claims to be 48. Do you think he looks anywhere near that age? I don’t. Is he an alien or something?

I guess it keeps him young…!

Anyway, the other day I saw a middle-aged guy at the 2nd Cup in the village. He had long stringy blond hair just in front, a beret, a long frock coat, a black _obi_ around his waist, and a clear plastic umbrella. And I was _so jealous!_ I wish _I_ could work an outfit like that. I couln’t possibly get away with it - but he could. It was fabulous!
