Lol I'm long past worrying what others think of how I look.
Should have seen the pics from when I had my 70 s porn stash. ! Think my wife burned them all except one of my id badges for one of the places I do work.
Haven't taken down my mirrors, I just don't look in them cause I'm ugly like a hat full of bums. My old drill Sargeant used to tell me if his dog was ugly like me he'd chop his tail off, shave his ass and make im walk backwards.
Gee, I've spent a lifetime feeling uncomfortable about my appearance. I got my grandmother's double chin, I hide with a beard, my father's bags under the eyes he had at 19 years of age, (though everyone remarked what a handsome man he was). I got my uncle's bald head, though ten years later in life than my son did. One ear lower than the other, no one would notice if they weren't so big.
These days I qualify as a geezer. The fact that I am alive at advanced age gives me a level of forgiveness that I ain't very attractive. I'm done apologizing for my appearance. I am beautiful! Well, sort of.
With my friensld's daughter. I had just met her two days before this pic and her first words to me were, "Hey, what's up dude?".
It was love at first sight.
I'm glad we accidentally pulled this post out of the boneyard. I hope many of our more recent members will take it in the intended spirit and post pictures.
Not my best picture but the only one I had. Guess I'm not to camera friendly.

A student now but really want to weld everyday. Want to learn everything about everything. Want to become a knower of all and master of none.

Thanks for that, Craig, maybe I'll check it out sometime. And that photo was taken real close to narco-trafficking territory, in an area called Willcox-AZ, that's a surprisingly fertile valley with a good water table, which is what I was doing there, building a double-barreled steam faking mill. That pictured sight glass is actually a Pyrex pie pan from Walmart.
Otherwise, I'm currently starting to run through the first season of the series, The OA, as I've liked nearly all things Brit Marling since she co-wrote and stared in Another Earth. I've been diggin' the new Westworld series, with Evan Rachel Wood too. The second season of Scream Queens has been ridiculously funny too.
I've been watching a lot of new movies and cable series for free on the internet via 123movies.is and newepisodes.me.
