I love your comments Nieboo! You almost always get me to go take another look because of the details that you find. :)
#4: Bionerd (nieboo) on Oct 13, 2007
It's all about the little details Gypso! That's what makes life so interesting.
#5: Gypso (Gypso) on Oct 12, 2007
That's one of the many things I like about you Bionerd! ^V^

Byrdie: go out, find a girl, you sound smart and like you have a good sense of humor, no need to date yourself.
#17: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Nov 24, 2008
LMAO!!!!
#18: Byrdie (byrdie) on Nov 24, 2008
Crap! I had to go back and look at what I said! For a second there I wondered where I'd given out TMI (I've been single for longer than I care to admit.)

Jota - thirteen lashes with a spaghetti noodle for being punny.

Adam - you get 7: 5 for laughing at it and 2 just for being you.
#19: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Nov 24, 2008
Come on, only 2 for being me? You don't even know me yet!
#20: Jota (Jota) on Nov 24, 2008
This is fun.
Anyone else into S&M ?
#21: Sylvain "WCPman" (qwerty) on Nov 24, 2008
I give Adam 8 out of ten just for being him on the majority of time
#22: Adam Nielson (monkeyboy) on Nov 24, 2008
ROFL!!!!!!!!!!

I am who I am. Fun guy, loves puzzles, hates BS lol
#23: Jota (Jota) on Nov 24, 2008
WOW Qwerty !!!
#24: Teresa K (fasstar) on Nov 24, 2008
Jota said if I read these comments I would stop dating myself (puzzle #4138 comments). Now I get it. Too funny. So, if two puzzlers are dating themselves at the same time, does that mean that they are going out alone together?
#25: Jota (Jota) on Nov 24, 2008
LOL I love this site. Imagine Fasstar and Birdie dating alone together!
#26: Arduinna (arduinna) on Nov 24, 2008
I can't decide if that's a sweet image or a lonely one... ;)
#27: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Nov 24, 2008
Oh my goodness...I have tears in my eyes from laughing...& I thought Gypso & I were the only crazy old(er) ones on this site

One question What is a date? (other than a nasty fruit)


byrdie & Teresa fess up...how old are you both?
#28: Byrdie (byrdie) on Nov 24, 2008
For Jota - S&M ??? - Spaghetti and Macaroni? (Based on my use thereof for the lashes.)

Nancy - I've answered that in the forums ... but since it took me 2 days to get caught up there and my answer wasn't direct I'll tell you. I'm 49. My 50th will be 2 days before Jan Wolters'.

I'm tempted to mark this as a spoiler even if it has nothing to do with the puzzle. lol
#29: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Nov 24, 2008
Yes right after & posted that I had remembered that you answered that in the forum (sorry) so many newbies it's hard to keep up with you all :)
LOL in the spoiler joke
#30: Teresa K (fasstar) on Nov 24, 2008
Oh, I am much older than Byrdie. If I say how old, it will make him feel oh so young. I'll tell you with clues:

I'm one of the first Baby Boomers - I was conceived exactly 4 months after the official end of WWII. How do I know that? I was there, of course!

If you don't remember your history, then here's an easier clue: I have three kids, Karie, born in 1974, she was my first foster baby that I adopted. Three years later I adopted Johnny as an infant. Three years later I had Chris ("my youngest cub") -Surprise! I'm twice as old as my oldest son.
#31: Byrdie (byrdie) on Nov 25, 2008
HHey Fasstar - I don't know that I'd qualify that as "much" older. I tend to think of age relative to my siblings. My older brother's birth preceeded the end of the war, not by much, but still... There was almost 20 years from the oldest to the youngest in my family.

#35: Sylvain "WCPman" (qwerty) on Nov 25, 2008
ok enought with those declaration of culinar and visionary preference ....lol

#36: Nancy Snyder (naneki) on Nov 25, 2008
LOL byrdie

#37: Teresa K (fasstar) on Nov 25, 2008
Jane Fonda - now she's old! I'm way younger than her, and I think a lot like her. Oh - here's another famous couple - Yanni and Linda Evans. Too bad that didn't last, such a romance. I'm younger than her too, but older than Yanni.
#38: Teresa K (fasstar) on Nov 25, 2008
Speaking of Yanni, I love his music, and wanted to make a puzzle for one of his songs, but I don't know how many people would recognize his titles.
#39: Sylvain "WCPman" (qwerty) on Nov 25, 2008
just do the flute lol
#40: Ian Smith (dragonfreak) on May 22, 2009
I'd recognize it
#41: Byrdie (byrdie) on May 22, 2009
Older than Yanni but younger than Linda Evans and Jane Fonda ... Narrows it down a bit ...

Jane is older than Linda. Linda is 66. Yanni is 54. That means Teresa is somewhere between 55 and 65, inclusive.

Hehe. However slightly, could you go for a younger man?
#42: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 22, 2009
I certainly could, Martin. In fact, in my dating years after my divorce a long time ago, the men I dated were all about 10 years younger than me. It wasn't intended, just happened that way. Nothing serious, but lots of fun!

To narrow the age down a bit, I'm closer to Linda than Yanni. You can figure it out exactly from the kids' ages mentioned above. Now you have to give us a clue about yourself, Martin! :-)
#43: Byrdie (byrdie) on May 23, 2009
I'm younger than Yanni, but not by much. This year was a milestone birthday.
#44: Jota (jota) on May 23, 2009
Hey you guys! Just go for it, life is way to short and at times very painful, one has to help a little.
#45: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 23, 2009
Happy Birthday, Martin (whenver your special birthday was). Welcome to the Golden Years - possibly the best part of your life. When I was young and wild, I thought those were the best years. When I fell in love, got married, and started a family, I thought those were the best years. When I got divorced and discovered my own potential and self-worth, I really started living. Now, I am in a continuous flow of discovery and excitement about life that makes me finally understand what they mean by the saying "Youth is wasted on the young." You are only as old as you feel on the inside anyway. So I guess I am around 35. LOL How old are YOU (on the inside)?
#46: Byrdie (byrdie) on May 23, 2009
Probably my mid twenties.

Lot of parallel there too - married, divorced, moved long distance, long term relationship that ended suddenly, having to move without much warning from the place I loved the most and spent the longest - each bringing new discoveries and reaffirming that I can make it over the hurdles that get thrown in front of me.

By now everyone else reading this has fallen asleep.
#47: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 24, 2009
Ha! I bet there's lots of puzzlers reading with intense interest. Am I right, folks? :-)

25 and 35 - Looks like you are still younger than me, Martin. No problem. You: Yanni. Me: Linda. If I remember correctly, you even play a musical instrument. Have you ever composed your own music? I can write lyrics. I wonder if Linda ever helped Yanni. Maybe she just inspired him.
#48: Byrdie (byrdie) on May 26, 2009
I played tuba as a music major in college but sold my horn a number of years ago and would have to work hard at remebering how to play again. I've fiddled with a number of other instruments (clarinet, trombone, piano and string bass) but never became fully proficient on any of them and other than periodic tinkling on the piano haven't picked any of them up in quite a while.

A close friend was a very accomplished guitar player and wanted to put together a band - just for fun. I picked up an electric bass and began remembering how to play. He had a stroke about 2 years ago that caused some weakness in his right hand. Rather than work at rehabilitating his hand, he became frustrated and stopped playing. That reduced my incentive to work on the bass and so I haven't made much progress in a while.

I've written more than a few pieces of music, several of which I took the time to copywrite and one choral arrangement that I took the time to publish but never sold.

Geeze! Somebody put in a nickle and I gave a quarters worth ...
#49: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 26, 2009
Tuba? Cool. Electric bass? Even cooler. Compose your own music? Woo hoo!!! I'd love to hear what you have composed. Is there any way? I have a pocket full of nickels, keep the tidbits coming. I'm loving it.

Speaking of nickels and music, have you ever been to the House on the Rock? Somewhere in Wisconsin. So magical! I really liked the calliopes and nickelodeons and all the mechanical musical gizmos.
#50: Byrdie (byrdie) on May 26, 2009
I have not been there but it sounds like just the kind of place my best friend and I like to road trip to. I'll have to look it up.
#51: Teresa K (fasstar) on May 26, 2009
From the architecture without, the decor within, the collections - toom after room after room - all so fascinating.

Thanks. I saved the link and I'll go take a look at it when I get more time.
