I gotta agree with Dana here. This thread is just cow manure. I'm putting this thread on my mental ignore list.

But don't you know, it's always the nice ones! If glatt ever does have a breakdown, it's going to be spectacularly big.

Was that for your annual reunion in Trinidad, Colorado?

You can't prove anything.

The reunion has been moved to San Jose, CA.

Just sayin'

But do you know the way?

Well, how about Pat or Terry or maybe Chris or Jo/e?

or Tits Magee?

And now for something completely different ...
 

It's my birthday and once again I'm announcing it in a non-birthday related thread to make it a tad harder to find previous years' guesses. That's right, you get to guess my age and if you get it right I'll fess up. One guess per person, sockpuppets ineligible, no proxy guesses (i.e. lurkers must register to guess), and no hints will be given. Guessing ends at midnight tonight Cellar time. If you guess wrong, I'll refer to you with pronouns opposite the gender you self identify with for the rest of the month [today and tomorrow :)]. Good luck.

29


It's also my Sister's and my Daughter's birthday today! (2 separate people)

68

c'mon people. don't let this sexobonoboxes person of indeterminate gender win 3 years in a row! If we ALL guess, our chances are good. You gotta figure at least 25, just because this is not an idiot.... and most likely less than 70. the median age around here seems to be about 38-40. I wish I had thought about it a little before blurting my guess out.

I think people don't guess because then there would be nothing to look forward to next June 29th.

Happy 50th noboxen

@jimhelm - better luck next year lady
@infinite monkey - nice try fella

I always picture you as a genteel southern belle, older but sharp as a whip.

sexobon holds his cards close to his chest, but he alluded to an interesting military career a while ago, so I would guess that he's on the older side. W ith more experience under his belt. Sexobon, you're 56.

So don't go guessing 69 next year, peeps.

@DanaC - Oh no, Dani boy

I should've stayed with my first guess. Who knew we'd be getting a fancy schmancy up to date listing?

I'll guess 52, not "50 as well."

Note to self: tablestakes *only* when playing Mastermind against footfootfoot.

My guess:

45 years old this year. Happy birthday regardless. :)

@footfootfoot - Off on the wrong foot, tootsie.
@BigV - A feminine pronoun would be superfluous, we all know what the V stands for

:D

You might call me a "squatter" and you'd be right. But only insofar (lol me I said insofar) as I am a non owner occupier.

On a different note, you are a very funny man and I appreciate your razor wit.

I'm going with 54.

@Clodfobble - dude, no way

62

And Happy Birthday!

Methinks thou doth protest too much. I urge others to vote in the vicinity of 54.

I'll say 48.

@Stormieweather - Don't know why, you're a no go guy ...
@orthodoc - Doctor, doctor, Mr. MD, that's not in my history

Crap. I bet you're in your 30s. Too late for me, somebody else try before midnight ...

And Happy Birthday sexobon, however old you are! May you always be well stocked with good friends and good wine.

midnight where?

53

@monster - you da man, da wrong man

[Cellar time: "All times are GMT -5. The time now is --:-- -M."]

I OMG I win! first thing I ever won!!!!!!!!

The masculine pronouns I used should be a hint to the others that the guessing is still open.

Guessing is now closed .... are you going to 'fess up? Or leave us in painful suspense???

But I am a bloke.....

Thank you all for playing WTFAGERFN. Unfortunately, there was still no winner in this 3rd iteration.

Remember, you can play the same numbers again next year (recommended only if you believe your guess was high, duh).

This has been an unorthodox interruption. We now return you to your typical thread drift.

If I played by those rules, I wouldn't have to fess up to my chronological age, just to the age I self identify with (which could change at anytime). ;)

So these are the ages he's not, as of 2012. we need a more cohesive strategy if he is going to play again next year.

:lol:

make of this what you will...
 

And your point is...?

Compare and contrast:

John is a knob!

Discuss.

"And your point is...?"
 

If I'd had a point, I'd have made it.

You'll note the subtitle on my post.

Knob.

I think the judge made a good decision, including the parts of the decision to be made by others with greater knowledge of such specifics like where and when to schedule the surgery and where to imprison him after the surgery.

I think they should have executed him after he murdered his wife, and saved a whole lot of money and bullshit.

"executed him"
 

Woulda been a good place to start, yeah.

the story says very little about the circumstances of his trial, except that he murdered his wife. do you believe all murderers deserve to be executed?

My Googling skilz are not good enough to uncover the original news and trial.

Anyone in MA? Can you look in the news archives and see?

"do you believe all murderers deserve to be executed?"
 

No more than you believe all murderers deserve to be set free (or locked away for a lifetime).

Irrelevant in any event.

The piece is about one guy who killed, not all folks who killed.

I assume (perhaps wrongly) his jail time is justified...I also assume (perhaps wrongly) that he might deserve a bullet in the head.

So sue me.

*shrug*

Maybe he killed her in a really sweet way. Lovingly strangled her? Caressed her to ribbons? Smothered her with the finest french silk pillows?

then why did you say executing him would have been a good place to start?

.

"then why did you say executing him would have been a good place to start?"
 

As I said: I made an assumption (perhaps right, perhaps wrong).

Again: sue me.

Go take it up with Bruce if you're lookin' for a tussle.

Me: not interested.

Did I miss somewhere that details why sex change surgery is medically necessary for this guy? And when I mean medically necessary, I mean necessary like a stint for a blocked artery or skin grafts for a severe burn or neonatal care for a baby and/or mother with really bad timing?

How does not changing him keep him in bad health? And if it's mental health they're talking about, don't they have head docs for that?
