Ok, see you. And say hello to your brother if he is still at your place.

Re: Small letters after tags

That doesn't tell me much, now does it. Your age ranges between his age and a million years.

Neither that nor your brother's age tell me anything about your age.

Re: Small letters after tags

There are many people on this forum that know my exact age. Why? Because I have told them. Some have even seen my alleged picture. I fear that [blank] has also tracked down that information.

Who are those people? Don't worry, I won't go around asking eberyone on the forum your age.

He is a very clever guy. I suspect that he works for some government agency that gives him clearance.

Mixed in with stories and anecdotes, yes I did. They did not believe it.

Re: Small letters after tags

If it is the story you told me then I must say that at first glance it does seem unconvincing and unbelievable. And as I finally accepted the fact that you are 90, you told me you were 9.
