It's been a long time since I've posted on here regularly, but I've been reading the posts for the past couple of days, and it's great to see some familiar faces, as well as new ones. Lots going on in my life, not all of it good, but I'm coping. Life itself is good, and that's good enough for me.
What happened to the "hairy man" icon? I was surprised to see that he's gone. I do like the new look, though.
PEACE AND LOVE
Yo, peace and love back atcha, Barefoot Dude!
Why not make your latest pic, above, your new "Avatar"?
Sure beats the old slicked-back half tail one. In other whirreds, EXCELLENT PROGRESS! Whadaya say?
Yuletide tidings,
Quenyan
Hi Barefoot Guy,
I don't think I have had the chance to say "hi" to you before, you must have been around before I joined 15 months ago, so I would like to say hi to you for the first time, and welcome back! Your hair looks great, and keep growing it for sure.
As for the change in the overall "look" of the main page, it was felt a change was long overdue, to "modernize" things a bit.
Keep it growing,
David
Hi Dino,
Hope all is well and improving, if that need be the case. It looks like you've grown a good bit of hair while away. Good to see it.
I guess you are still working on your studies in the field of plants. I was pulling the weeds from around my agave plant the other day and thought about you. Uncanny that you have now shown back up.
Stick around more!
Matt B. (f.k.a. "Bragi")
Welcome back and lookin' good!
Keep on growin'
Bruce
Great to see you back and has your hair ever taken off. Looks great! :-)
Welcome back mate and good to see you posting again and the hairs along longer and looking in great condition and looks really shiny as well and keep it growing.
Cheers,
John.B
Thanks, guys, for the greetings and kind words. I'm looking forward to hopefully interacting again a whole lot more than I had been for the last year and a half or so.
Quenyan - I'll take your suggestion into consideration to make that photo my new avatar. It's probably is time for a change!
MattB - Wow, you've got a great memory. I remember you as Bragi, a very articulate, intelligent, and kind man. I'm not studying plants anymore these days (not formally, anyway), but I do have lots of irons in the fire, as usual.
Justin, JohnB - Great to see my fellow musician buddies still here.
And, darn it, wouldn't you know, I missed out on the opportunity to invite people to my choral concerts, which just finished up last weekend. I'm a tenor with a professional chamber choir called the San Francisco Choral Artists (on the web at http://www.sfca.org). Keeping up with my music has been a real godsend for me, with all that's been going on. Anyway, we'll have concerts again in March, and I'll try and remember to post an announcement on the board, for anyone who will be in the San Francisco area at that time and might be interested in hearing a highly polished, well respected choral group perform (definitely nothing like "Clash of the Choirs"). :-)
Great to be back in the longhair fold!
Hi again, Dino,
I hope you do stay around the hyperboard this time, and even though you do not know me at all right now, and probably see me as a total stranger, I hope that I will get to know you more in the upcoming year. You sound like a cool guy who everyone from the "old" days of the hyperboard remember very well.
All the best in the holiday season,
David
Hi David,
Very pleased to make your acquaintance, and I'm looking forward to getting to know you better as well. We may be strangers at this point, but we're brothers "in hair."
Happy almost-Friday!
dino
Hey Dino welcome back! Glad you are but sorry to hear that you have been having troubles. I can relate as I have also had quite a time of it during the last year or so. Hopefully things will improve for us both :)
You are looking good though despite the trials, cool hair :)
Looking forward to your barefoot posts! Guess we forgot to put out the "NO SHOES NO SERVICE" sign! :)
Hey Chris, great to see you too. I just ignore those "NO SHOES NO SERVICE" signs anyway. Thanks for the nice welcome. Here's to a wonderful 2008!
Hi Barefoot Guy..
Wow.. a big change in your current hair length from the one in your avatar... might be a good time to update it huh?
Well ... Welcome back.. I'm pretty new here myself; well .. I've been around for almost 8 months now.. so I guess Im still new... Anyway; hope you decide to stick around..
Take care..
Tristan
Hey man
Welcome back! I'm glad all is copacetic and that your hair is still long and awesome. You've been away for a long time and the board has changed plenty since then. Stick around man and don't be a stranger. Well, Take care man and glad to have you back with us.
Welcome back,
It doesn't seem like you were gone that long but time flies and the hair grows as did yours. Much longer than I remember and looking food also.
The hairy guy logo was due to retire sooner or later although many liked it as did I we gotta keep things interesting.
Take Care
Kevin
Great to have you back Dino!
Regards Dave
