I'm no commenting on whether you were good looking or not because this is a conservative forum, and we don't do those kinds of things.

No, just going out to dinner at a place that necessitated wearing girl clothes.  I don't go to restaurants like that any more.

Well to tell you the truth I don't tend to look at peoples profiles, so falsely assume just about everyone here is a guy.   Photoshows like this does all of us good by getting us to know each other just a little bit more. And we have some girls here that back in the day were lookers.

I hadn't known or heard of "Throwback Thursday".   Started seeing Facebook "friends" post olde time pics and now understand why.  LOL!

Don't and won't post any pics on Facebook....I'm strictly a lurker.  Don't even have a completed profile with a picture.

TBR is my "facebook".....and love sharing time with the best "friends" anybody could want.

Thank you Lando.   And thank you all!    :beer:
