HOW OLD ARE YOU

[wolviex]

Ok, we've got nationality thread, mugshot thread (long forgotten), thread on individual interest with poll (long time ago too), thread with appeal to new memebers etc......

so let's make another one with fun - HOW OLD ARE YOU.

We had some surprises lately, finding out that some of the members are quite young but mature in mind (hope this is how we can call it in English, I hope no-one will feel offended :eek: ), so I'm courius HOW OLD THIS BOARD IS :)

So - I'm 29 :o

[Mare Rosu]

[Rich]

I remember riding dinosaurs to school :-) That is when we didn't have
to walk 20 miles thru the snow with no shoes. :-)
Just an old codger. If I'd known I'd live this long, I'd have lived a
MUCH wilder life :-)

[Montino Bourbon]

In Rome, of all places!

January 1942, to be exact.

Oh, and It's "... wear my trousers rolled"

My favorite qute from T S Eliot is..

"I should have been a pair of ragged claws, Scuttling across the floors of silent seas."

[Hernan]

When I want to "be" younger, I convert it to hexadecimal notation: 29.
In fact, almost 41.

[Titus Pullo]

I'm 29. Here is my pic if you don't mine. i don't look that old for some reason, but my grey hair is starting to show. My dad was the same way...having grey hair in his late 20's and 30's.

[Alam Shah]

Just turned 15. Gee, I think you're the youngest registered member. :eek: :) :D Unless someone else can truthfully be younger than this.

[Titus Pullo]

38

i thought you were in your 70's, or something. I think I got you mixed up with someone else! Ha! [laugh!]

[TVV]

24.75 so while I do not fall among the youngest members here, I am still quite young. :)

[Bill M]

For a mountain I have not yet begun

For a mayfly I am VERY old

For me I am exactly the right age.

I will be 63 on Halloween, October 31.

[Rather]

I am just (or already?) 48!

Life is too short for the wrong hobby!

Therefore, I already handed on many weapons from my collection to my son, he's 18 and enjoys especially the old Dha.

[drdavid]

By my count there are more folk on this forum aged 48 than any other age, not sure what that means but I am another of that precise vintage. As with some others my brain keeps telling my body that I am younger than that, but my body keeps asking my brain then how come I feel like this?

I guess I'm an old soul, Titus. No worries: I thought you were about 15. ;)

[Titus Pullo]

I get that all the time! [laugh!] So, here is another pic of me, which looks older, hopefully!

[nechesh]

Titus, i am sooooo glad that you aren't aiming that camera just a little bit lower. :eek: :D

[MABAGANI]

I'm older than you are, I'm older than you are, I'm older than you are. :D
lolz, Life begins at forty, at least for me the saying held true, what's to expect in the 50s, 60s, 70s...as far as collecting arms and armor, I've significantly downsized

[BSMStar]

Well, all I can say is that after passing the big five three...

... and for all of you that can remember going to Disneyland, that far back in time...

...it requires an "E Coupon" to be on this ride. :rolleyes: :D :D

[Ian]

Any more care to share? :D

I was sitting with two colleagues the other day.
One asked how long I've been teaching.
Before I could answer, the other replied,

Since the Franco-Prussian War.

After some reflection I have decided to spare you all the Titus Pullo-style
self portraiture.

[tsubame1]

43 this September 2nd. The day of Japan's surrender... :rolleyes:

Please don't take this the wrong way, Ham.

Thank you. Sincerely. :D :p

[DhaDha]

Finally, a question I can answer with both authority and confidence. 36.

[M ELEY]

In dog years, I'm dead! :D
I'll be 39 in September...

[Dajak]

I am 46 but look younger like 31

[Mick]

I'm over 70 but trying not to look like it.

[Barrett Hiebert]

I hope I'm able to surprise you all!

Hope everyone has a good night, cheers!

46, and nothing about my aging is graceful

[Ann Feuerbach]

I just celebrated by 21st birthday for the 17th time! :eek:

[Andrew]

Really? I would have guessed mid-thirties, Charles. You're remarkably well preserved. :D

[Robert]

54 going on 18 :D

[joshualayne]

1/3rd of a century on March 26th.

33 in November.

My work desk ages me more than my years...

I am amazed by the collectors younger than myself, as when I was that age I collected bad reproductions from Ren-faires and such. You all have much better taste than I did.

[roanoa]

I am still a teen-ager, but everyone tells me I am really 61....

[RhysMichael]

49 and in my profession I get to retire at 50

[HUSAR]

30 this year

[Radu Transylvanicus]

I saw your mug shot from the DMV you don't look a day older than 450 oh I mean 29 ;) Btw you seemed a bit pail so maybe you were down a couple of pints when they snapped the picture :D :eek:


Lew

[Rick]

Funny Lew! :D
I saw Bram Stoker's Dracula starring Gary Oldman and Keanu (dude!) Reeves a few days ago and damned if I didn't find myself thinking of you Radu . ;) :D

Fortunately my Wife has just planted a large bed of Garlic ... :eek: :D

[FourBlades]

I am 43.

I made a dozen swords from scrap metal around age 12.

I bought my first antique sword at age 30.

I bought my second at age 35.

I bought 20 more in the last 12 months...so I guess I am really hooked now.

Finding this forum really opened my eyes to how interesting ethnographic arms are, which in turn has gotten me really interested in understanding the culture and history of many parts of the world I knew very little about.
