>I've noticed that you & Tasker both have beards. Is there something that happens between 17 & 26ish years of marriage that causes this? <g> Maybe we should ask Tamar if her hubby has one.. I also noticed that Koziol has one too but I figure the Florida heat has something to do with that.. <g>

I can't speak for David, but in my case the beard pre-dates the wife.< s >

Of course, the picture above is over three years old and is the "old beard". The "new" beard appears in the picture (taken yesterday) that appears now and again on the main page with the comment.< Poor Bret Hobbs. He logs in this morning and sees that! What a way to start the day. >
