That t-shirt pic makes me want to say "Hello to the Gorilla House" for some reason!   :)

 

Good to meet you.  I'm a little older than you, but I am glad there is someone else on here that lived thru Disco.

 

No, it didn't kill all of us off!  Notice that not even John Travolta kept his figure.

Hey Oldtimer, great you took the time to subscribe to our forum!

 

Impressive log press that is! I'm more on the rugby side of things, rather than am.football, but despite the usual "that one's tougher than the other" discussion I kinda came to like am.football to a certain extent - they are just really different sports and difficult to compare. Is the skinny ;) one on the right your son?

 

Greetings from Germany

Phil

Thanks Phil-O, IMHO, there's no comparison between american football and rugby. Rugby is WAY tougher, hands down IMHO. Yes, that is my son. Very proud of him as he is set to graduate high school this year. Fine young man ready to come into his own.
