Me at age 33 in picture above. That is not Toby.Toby took the picture.

Which one ?

John D. He was the first person that I e-mailed with from this thread .

This picture is from 2019.I cannot recall the first time we were on a cruise with you and RJ.The second time was 2017 or 2018.

Thank you.I wear that shirt on every cruise .I meet people who were born in Brooklyn and live all over the world .Toby and I will be dog sitting in our house next month when my daughter and her husband are traveling .

Cloudy and cold here ,really dreary looking.

Thank you for the compliment. We had our entire downstairs flooring redone in 2019 and the upstairs in 2009.

If I was still working in the internet age I would not have that problem.Even though I last worked in 2004 the last time I worked in an office was May 1999.

If you are familiar with the band ZZ Top ,I had a beard just like them.I sent John ,Bella’s human ,a picture last year.

My father never liked the idea of me having a beard. When he was in the hospital and presumably knew he would never come home he stopped shaving and told me he wished he would have grown a beard when he was young.

My mother in law hated my beard.She offered me $300 to shave it and not grow it back but since my wife liked the beard I was not going to shave.

My wife said the exact same thing .

People have told me that I looked like Eric Clapton and other singers over the years.When you met me the first time I either had grey or white hair.

I have always looked a lot younger than my age. Even now with my hair all white people cannot believe when I tell them how old I am.My father always looked a lot younger that his age.One summer when I was 19 a friend and I went to a hotel in the Catskills for a vacation.Neither one of us drove yet and my friends father and my father came to drive us home. My father was in his 60’s and a woman at the hotel ,quite young “hit on him”.She believed him to be in his early 40’s

Thanks. I wrote this down ,otherwise I would not remember .

That is great.I have had many lunches with people from the schools I attended.I have also had 5 hour phone conversations with long lost school friends.I love conversing .

The day after my HS graduation I began to grow facial hair.I had a traditional mustache and a fu man chu,a goatee and a van dyke ,a full beard ,extremely long ,a pony tail with hair going down almost to my waist. Toby never saw me clean shaven.One day in 2017 I shaved my beard and my mustache and could barely recognize myself.

I am posting a picture sent to me yesterday by a long time co-worker friend. This picture was taken at an office Christmas party when I was 51 years old.

Okay,I think I can post the picture now.Thanks for your help and thanks,MJ. Lenny

When I posted on CM prior to being on CC and was able to use a computer I posted many pictures on that site .However,since no longer being able to use a computer everything is so much harder for me.

I will try what you did.I wrote everything down and hopefully it will work. I will do it first in the Floataway Lounge.I do not want to mess up anything on Dani’s thread. P

I tried that,Marietta but when it transferred to CC the screen was totally black.
