I dunno... I was thinking more like Ian Anderson (from Jethro Tull) or one of my old b/f's...LOL!!
But neither one of them ever let their hair get that long!! <sigh>
It's simply gorgeous!!! View attachment 179256
And I guess I'll throw one of mine in for good measure... Ha!!
But PLEASE don't turn this into a "popularity contest" by having it based on the # of 'Likes'!!!
I would rather take my chances with the RNG...

Here is me and my girls taking a vape

Here you go, buddy........

Well, Mom and Pop's little corner of ECF is tucked away enough that we usually don't have to worry about popularity contests, but from the sudden influx of posts (and a few of them people I've not seen around these parts before) I have to assume the thread got listed on the Contest thread. If that's the case, then I'd say all bets are out the window
I'll likely take likes into account to a certain degree, but if the floodgates have been opened I will probably only count likes by people who've participated in the thread and/or are known M&P regulars. RNG would be the "recognized fair" way to handle it, but this isn't formally supposed to be a contest and there are some people who have been scientifically demonstrated to be specifically avoided by the RNG. If Ripple and I were the only two people in a contest and the numbers 1 and 2 were plugged into the RNG, it would come up with 136.
The prize will not be awarded based solely on the number of likes a person can manage to accumulate, and I will try very hard to avoid the RNG--even if I have to pull in my daughter to pick a picture![]()
Hmmm, only five people so far--or maybe six, rules say "We have to be able to at least see your eyes" and we can mostly see one of lightbud404's eyes--but some good pictures and still plenty of time.
So what do you do--go get your friends to participate and make it more fun, or hope nobody else joins in and thus increase your chance at getting a prize?

WELL - Actually I think some of that had to do with "Me" - I took what "You" said literally ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ So I PM a few freinds to have them join in on the "FUN" and post their pictures like you asked . . . AND while I surly would really "Like" to Win the prize I was more interested in seeing some more faces of people I know here and having that FUN ! ! !![]()
SO - I guess it was "My" Bad . . .![]()
Not a "bad" at all, Unc. That's specifically what I meant when I said "get your friends." I started the thread to get some pictures posted and I looked at the game as a way to get it jumpr-started--I'm hoping people will still have fun posting and looking at the pictures after the game is over. Most of the people that are "new" to Mom and Pop's house are people I recognize as having a strong aversion to the "popularity contests" for the obvious (to us, anyway) reasons. If it hasn't been mentioned in the contest thread I don't think we have any problems, but if it gets noticed by the people who only "aim to win" rather than posting to have fun, I will protect the integrity of the intent to have fun.
I'm loving the pictures, thanks for spreading the word![]()
