[QUOTE="ryryguy, post: 4742926, member: 64945"] So yesterday, which just happened to be 8 days shy of my 40th birthday, I was dropping off some chairs at a friend's house on the way to brunch someplace else. I saw the friend in the window waving, so I put down the chairs on his porch and waited for him to open the door. When a few seconds passed and he didn't open it, my wife told me, "Just open the damn door!" I opened the door. Inside the room were forty or so of my friends, wearing T-shirts emblazoned with this image: [CENTER][IMG]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3400/3419252863_f43c376a16.jpg[/IMG] [B][SIZE="4"]SURPRISE!!![/SIZE][/B][/CENTER] I always knew my wife would make a good rogue, but I didn't know just [I]how[/I] good... I was so surprised, she could have sneak attacked me for two or three rounds! :lol: That is my face on the orc or goblin or whatever it is. The resemblance is uncanny. Well, except for the ears. Also, I'm a little paler. But they did get the muscles pretty accurately. And if you can't tell since this image is a little small, it says "40th Edition" on the bar at the bottom, under my name Ryan XXX (last name redacted for Intarwebs). They gave me a sweatshirt with the picture on it and wrote on it with a sharpie pen. Some of the better slogans: which later on became and, of course Anyway, I thought ENWorlders might get a kick out of this. And though she will probably never read this, big props to my wife Darlene!
