I joined around the time of GenCon in '96. I think I joined just after GenCon,
though I'd have to go into the archives to find out.

Up until three or so years ago, the bolton list still actually
fuctioned - a few of us used to amuse ourselves every few months with
"echo chamber" posts into the cold lifeless void of the bolton list.

I don't actually remember if it was the Bolton list I joined... when did

though I'd have to check the archives to be sure.

Speaking of which... how do I do that again, anyone?

/That/ can be awkward. If needed, I can give you the address/URL of a

Well, no parent has ever liked their sons' first attempts at facial hair,
either when it first comes in or when they decide to actually grow

it, so that's life. Ceremonially present him with an electric razor and a
(safety) blade razor and have your other half teach him how to use
them, and be prepared for the eventual First Beard -- 'coz it'll happen
in a few years time... ;-)

And to be honest, I have to add to the "it makes me feel old" list here;

realising that Mr Fulton the Younger is now in high school makes me wonder
where the years have gone. I can remember the proud posts of his parents about
his first fleet and army. Mind you, I can remember my own similar posts about
my sons....

Not sure Derek can remember, he hasn't shaved in 16 odd years now;)

Given the number of beards in his extended family, I don't doubt;)

Well he's accumulated quite a few now and finally has the patience to paint
them well. In fact we're dreading the day he decides to move out, we'll have
to go and get our own copies of all the Munchkin games for a start;)
