Isn&#8217;t that interesting ? It may come as a surprise to many.. but I <em>like<\/em> the way i look. now<br \/>\nLooking a little wierd opens many doors.. no one expects to take me seriously which is helpful when I don&#8217;t want them to.. and when I do.. ..<br \/>\n&#8230; and .. I couldn&#8217;t ask for a more convincing disquise as I try to get kids to open up to sceince.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway.. i often hear that you&#8217;re only as old as you feel.. or as someon told me last week.. you may have to grow older.. but you don&#8217;t have to grow up..ok.. enoguht of that..
