Re: Pre-holidays Eagles Fly-in?
It's a common problem with 900-year olds; they tend to look (relatively) young, especially that long beards are now mostly the realm of hipsters, wizards, Santa Claus impersonators and ZZ-top fans.nanana wrote:congratulations, SMS!!! 3.5 kg is one healthy bub!

Previously, if you see a man with a long beard, you automatically assume him to be old. But now, you have to check for skinny jeans, sleeve tats, long robes, red coats, bandannas or leather vests.
Making snap judgments about people just based on their looks isn't what it used to; now, you actually have to know the person!

Thanks WD. I guess now I have to acknowledge that I'm getting a wee bit older.

Not to complain... and... my plane tickets seem to be lost in this entire congratulatory mess... after all, SMS _may_ have been responsible for the laying of the keel... and a lot more folks built the ship.
