<p>[QUOTE=&quot;phankins11, post: 2223290, member: 70703&quot;]Although I&#039;ve been a computer nerd all my life and have used forums, email, facebook, etc as long as I can remember I&#039;ve always felt the anonymity of forum members somewhat limiting in connecting to them on a personal level.</p><p><br /></p><p>I&#039;m a people person. I like to meet new people, I like socializing, I like knowing who people are, in the hobby and outside the hobby. I&#039;ve always been that way. So when I come here and read and converse...i get left with wanting to know who these people are, what are they like...what do they look like?</p><p><br /></p><p>Well over the past several months as I&#039;ve read [USER=16948]@The Penny Lady®[/USER] and [USER=59002]@Amanda Varner[/USER] posts on their coin show adventures and perused their pics of all the people that stop by and meet them. I get to see some of who you guys really are. I like that.</p><p><br /></p><p>I get it, in a hobby like this one, online, you wanna stay somewhat under the radar, and the attempts at &quot;Show us your real self&quot; always end up in the most hilarious of shenanigans so nothing is ever really learned about who people are.</p><p><br /></p><p>Well, I&#039;ve been keeping track and Amanda&#039;s and Charmy&#039;s reports have given me the opportunity to create my own directory of sorts <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> that way I know who I&#039;m talking to for some of you folks. So here&#039;s My updated directory list of coin talk nicknames and avatars to real people pictures.</p><p><br /></p><p>I hope that since these are already out there in the inter webs in Charmy&#039;s and Amada&#039;s blogs, that it won&#039;t put off those I&#039;ve named <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> and to be fair I&#039;ve included myself.</p><p><br /></p><p>First up we have [USER=59677]@Burton Strauss III[/USER] - I&#039;ve always get a lot out of your posts a numismatist at heart for sure.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]435914[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Next up [USER=19423]@illini420[/USER] - Again I always get something out of your posts. I&#039;ve visited your website and looked at your registry set briefly (links in your sig)</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]435916[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Next there&#039;s [USER=14070]@rzage[/USER] - I sent Rusty one of those little cheap cell phone microscopes. I hope its proved useful. Rusty always has great information to share.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]435917[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>And then there&#039;s Frank....nuff said <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> - Frank and I Just agreed yesterday on an AU 1932 S Washington quarter grade...when frank agreed with my assesment, something inside of me was *real* proud of that...not sure why...but it felt good</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]435915[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>And lastly there&#039;s me...</p><p><br /></p><p>Just me</p><p>[ATTACH=full]435918[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Me after a fried got hold of a pic and found out l like coins and old money</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]435920[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>And me as I would look in an episode of the walking dead</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]435919[/ATTACH]</p><p><br /></p><p>Great to meet all you guys in picture. Thanks Charmy and Amada for the blogs and updates.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
