I noticed something today: "Regulars" here, in your Profiles!

This is something that I've thought about for a very long time. I've always been very security minded when it comes to the Internet world and to the Real world. Better to be safe than sorry. . . . but not much harm can come of posting my pic and a bit more info.

This is something that I've thought about for a very long time. I've always been very security minded when it comes to the Internet world and to the Real world. Better to be safe than sorry....but not much harm can come of posting my pic and a bit more info......mabye. Hmmmm, if I do post more info I'll probably change my handle since it would hardly do to have my handsome face associated with "DosFreak". But do I really dare to post this stuff? Oh choices...how I hate thee. It's going to be hard to break a 14+ year anonymous BBS/Internet habit.........

Trust me, Alex, you really don't want to see what I look like in real life. Enough to send women and children screaming!

Bah! No need to be so perdantic(no way I have spelt that right...)APK!
 
I was just curious that's all. Are you gonna put a pic of your-good-self on your profile aswell?
 
 
 
 
P.S. Yay! My 100th thread! It's like when you first see a car mile-o-meter(don't know what the proper name is) tick over to 10,000 or 100,000!

Quote:(You're a young man still, or @ least you look it! I had you pegged as an older, slightly heavier set & greying @ the temples kind-of-guy to be honest! Maybe in your early 50's or so... no joke!)

heh. Young in body, but old in mind.

Will be 25 in Jan. I'm working on getting fat now that I'm getting out and my hair is starting to gray in front....which is one of the reasons why I keep it short.

Another reason I don't like posting pics is the impression people get of you by your looks. No big deal online since the first impression (at least here) has been by talking and then mabye viewing a profile. Whereas, in RL they would of course see you, judge you, and then talk.

Well now you know two.
I hit the gym every afternoon after work for an hour. Great way to relieve stress and shed pounds.
Got a personal best on the bench press last week at 130kg (that's 286 pounds in foreign speak). Will try for 135 (approx 300) in a couple of weeks. My next milestone is 150kg.
 
Even with a good diet, losing those last few kilos is taking time.

Nope, not my car, all that my girlfriend and I had was lost power for 3 days, no damage.
 
Although on Friday morning (the day the pictures were taken), the trees were down on both sides of the road, blocking us in for a while
