Recovering this old thread due a newer thread with Lexs birthday, so his fault.... and cause many of the members are not stateing their ages, by now the youngest one is Flacon with 18 and the oldest, sorry man, is Fuzeman with 57. Also I think would be nice and curious to know the starting date or for all those who cant remember it due to the age....how much time of collecting has each member. So, here it is: Im 36 and collecting WWII grenades, etc, since May 2005 when I got my frist grenade, a very nice MKIIAI USA frag with original paint and AF marked. I still have it.

51 and feel every year of it, the toll of 3 (supposedly grown) children and 3 marriages (the gals say I have an attitude problem, then I tell them to p_ss off). All parts pretty much working, the roof don't leak and I have food in the icebox. Life is good..Dano

33. Not *that* old, but I will feel it tomorrow. Starting back at College as a mature student, and all the 17/18 year old kids walking around will make me feel very, very decrepit and old by comparison.
 
45 going on 25, well i like to think so. Dont think my kids will agree though!
Been collecting since i was 8.
