A nice looking young man

[Maria]

I've just looked at the lastest Optiboarders picture that Steve has put up. Darryl Meister is a bit of all right, isn't he? For some reason, I imagined him to be a lot older. Probably because he knows stuff, and I am living proof that young people don't know stuff.
What do the other girls think? (It is OK to post here, because he only reads the intellectual stuff, and he's NEVER going to read a topic with a title like this.)
I think we should have pictures of all the men, and then we can rate them.
Steve, create the perv section :D

Maria, I was just thinking that exact same thing about Darryl. I expected him to at least have a few gray hairs (not that that would make him any less attractive-Richard Gere has tons of gray hair and he is a total babe!!)
There was a picture of Darris floating around somewhere that I saw and he's cute too! I agree- let's get all the guys to submit photos so we can play "Who's my optical dream date"--do you girls remember that game with all the hunky guy pictures and you had to ask all kinds of silly questions to get to your "dream date" We'll just change the questions to stuff about Donder's table for age referenced amplitude of accomodation and see what happens!! :)

Ok... I'm in.... send in the pictures guys!
I too, thought he looked very good in the picture. Kinda like a optiboard pin-up man?
So, should we ask for profiles so you could start hooking up optiboard men with optiboard women? LOL

You gals are right, Darryl does look younger than I thought he would, but then again Pete looks younger than I figured too. Matbe it was just that the deer looked so much older than him. I think you were thinking of the pics of Darris when Steve posted a few pictures a long time ago, around one Halloween. I am not sure on that one.

Well.....that Steve is not bad either. Either of those guys could work on my bench any day.....LOL! I really would like to have a "man" around the optical shop, but I have never found one that wasn't a little weird.

*gulp* does this mean we all have to wear loin cloths and beef up for the meat gallery?

A little oil might be helpful too! gotta make those muscles glimmer!! I gotta go check out that picture of Pete now :)

[Suzy W]

Though, loin clothes wouldn't hurt! LOL

Well,

Chad and I are in. We'll take some pictures of us working out at the gym and lifting heavy weight. We won't have to beef up since we're already there :-) I don't think we'll "oil up" though because it makes it difficult to hold on to the bar. The loin clothe thing is out of the question because they do have a dress code at the gym :-)

Let the "Beef Cake" pictures begin! :-)

I'll wait to send mine along until I see Darris and Chad's in there! ;)

Best regards,
Darryl

Hi Maria,

I appreciate the gratuitous flattery. I must warn you, however, that I am impervious to this kind of embarrassment -- so you'll have to try harder next time!

And, you're right! I wouldn't have normally read this post (someone else pointed it out to me!). ;)

Best regards,
Darryl

PS
I started in this industry just out of high school, so I still have quite a few years under my belt. At 28-years-old, I think I'm the "optical equivalent" of 38. (Which would explain how I got a couple of grey hairs!) ;)

[stephanie]

Oh gosh Darryl!! Now I really have to study harder now that I found out that I am older than you yet you are wiser!!! LOL!! Only by a year so maybe I'll catch up. :)
Have a great day!
Steph

Hooray for pictures of the men in loin cloths!
We can all have our favourites, and argue over who is the best (see Take That, New Kids, Wham, the Osmonds etc, depending on how old you are)
Of course, if the men try to do the same to us, they will be sexist pigs who only care about what women look like. :)
Hooray for manipulating feminism to one's own ends!

[Maria]

PS Darryl knows my name :D

Steve Macho, I can't believe how handsome YOU are - even with the facial hair and those women hanging all over you!
Forget about that 28 year old child!He's no competition! You're the man!

OOPS! And calling you Macho was totally Freudian.... Sorry about that

Steve, have you been saving that one for a special occasion? I thought the spinning heads was good, but well.
I suppose you are quite literally becoming big-headed with all this attention :)

I happen to think he's lovely. So if no-one else wants him, can I have him? ;)

[Jo]

Mari53 & Maria:

You're right! Steve has that sunkissed, outdoors look about him; kind of like the Bridges family or an adult, bearded version of that guy on Beverly Hills 90210.

[Maria]

I'm not about to say anything that might find me unceremoniously booted off the board, but this whole thread is actually a homage to the wonder that is Darryl. Steve's nice enough, but I'll have Darryl, thankyou. :)

[Maria]

In fact, if you look closely at the picture, Judy Canty is touching his bum. :D

So, when is the Optical Beefcake calendar going to be released?

For Maria's sake Darryl better be one of the summer months. Maybe Mr. July?
