The old hippie

In case you've ever wondered what an old hippie looks like after he breaks the half century mark, and gets a haircut, check the attached link.  (Not for the weak of heart!)


I figured that if Wendy could be courageous enough to stop being incognito, I should, too. ('course, shes a lot younger, and cuter than me!)

Thanks Wagon.  Actually, my wife tells me that she thinks I have been preserved by all the alcohol.   Scary thought!  Hate to think that I've been embalming myself over those past years.


Come to think of it, I read somewhere that one of the ingredients of beer is formaldehyde!  Jeez! That alone ought to be enough to make us think twice about drinking the stuff!


I think I'll stick to tea and orange juice... and maybe the occasional Coke, even though I know that's bad for me too. (just not as bad as the booze)

I can picture you w/long hair and love beads! Cool pic, Dan. Thanks!


Yep! I think beer and formaldehyde are like one molecule different!

Hi Doll,


I kinda fell on it by accident, when posting a reply.  Happened to look down at the lower left, and saw, "Attach File".  Low & Behold, if you got something on file in your computor (like jpeg's for instance) you can attach them to your message by clicking on the 'Add a File" box.


As Spock used to say when I was watching "Star Treck" back in '69, "Live long and Prosper"... I kinda think that was Vulcan hippie jargon for "Love and Peace, Dude".

Wow, now I know I gotta get one of my old photos out.  Ya know Bob, I think we were all hippie wannabes, even those of us who thought we were the real thing way back then.
