Because the old thread was deleted here is another pic. It is a scetch made by the French comic artist Fabrice Neaud ten years before in Angouleme AD 1997.

"A few years ago" - probably a break between digging for ancient coins.

One picture from last month -

With my oldest son, taken in Tainan, Taiwan.

There was a festival going on, and lots of street vendors were out that day - with a variety of goods!

I wish I had a drawing like Jochen's but my whole family were camera buffs.  Anyhow, A.D. 1946, aet. 12, Richmond, CA, and this cat's name was Comet.  Pat L.
I do feel sheepish about this, but the recent pictures....

If the father is capable of taking nice pictures and posting them on this board...... I can only congratulate him!!

PS how about reversing the camera 180 degrees and showing us how you are in your present condition????

Thanks Pete.

Frans - probably "  :o " will suffice as I just remembered the sleepless nights again  :)


But as requested - taken 2 seconds ago - with my eldest (I can say that now)


Do I detect an RPC aficionado in the making ???

Grace is already beautiful.  That is what we all (who knew) have been thinking about: were the baby and mother successfully delivered.  And they are!  Congratulations.  Pat L.

Congratulations Malcolm.

 As for me no kids yet, wife doesn't want any, so I got the car!  Taken at Mosport International Raceway last year at the Ferrari Club of America (Eastern Canada division)  track event.  Here's two, one in the pits the other going downhill into turn 5 at about 140mph then pouncing on the brakes to make the turn!

Since it has been about five years since I last posted a picture, I thought it was time for an update. I'm not responsible for any trauma that results. It was taken shorlty after arriving home at 4am after a night of frivolity...


Yes, I wear a top hat (with appropriate clothing) out to parties. My fashion sense became fixed at 1902.

And the extra five years suit you too.  It takes real bravery to face the camera at 16 or so.  Pat L.

P.S. Daycare for two kids has seriously hampered my monthly coin budget:'(


An unfortunate side effect but I'm hoping mine will become rich and provide me with coin buying funds during my dotage (I have no shame  ;D)

Good health to you all - you have a lovely family

Thanks for the positive comments Titus Pullo, Malcolm, and Lars.  Yes, my kids will one day either make me rich or cause me to go bankrupt!  I am hoping for the first scenario... ;)

Best, Noah

Wonderful young and happy family; congrats with that!
My family has since the first of January been extended with my dog Jasper's nephew called Yoshi. Here they are both in their first hours together: Jasper three years and Yoshi seven weeks.
