Now that we know I look shockingly like TJ, I figured it would be neat to see what other people here look like.

For those who may have missed it, here I am (with my wife) enjoying ramen in Japan:






(I'm on the left)

Your turn guys and gals.

Don't be afraid!

Um...I dont see anything and I cant figure out how.

if it says "IPB image" right-click that and choose "view image"

Finally got it to work. Here we are at the Coliseum last June. This is our most recent group photo.

Clearly Lefty is a trouble maker!
Can see it in the eyes!

Hey, I look alot like Scorp and TJ, too!


And for those of you wondering, yes that really is me, which Sky can verify.

I'm the taller one. The good looking one is Joe, my partner in Search and Rescue.


These pics are from this winter and late last summer respectively. Since they were taken I've added a piercing; essentially a bindy stone between my eyes.

Now here's a really good picture! This is my second best friend in the world, Iron Joe.

Ha ha ha !


Yep, that's the VT I know.
Unusual looking on the outside,
and exceptionally unusual on the inside too!

(Only the VT I know smiles a whole lot than these pictures might indicate!)

Sorry VT, I have to disagree, you are WAY cuter than Scorp and Tj.




I am NOT a troublemaker. Well, at least not in like "get into trouble" type. Though I do stir the shit quite often which happens to piss a lot of people off.

I knew it was straight red hair.


Here am I with my son Justice and my Daughter Faith.

Take a Look!

MM, link is bad. or so it says when I click it!

It's asking me for a userid and password.

SECOND POST

And who says that liberal girls aren't cuties! Our board is full of them!

VT, love the haircut! And your doggie rocks!

left, your son is so cute! And you have a great smile.

Ping, you got to see the colleseum! that's a dream of mine! Your hubby looks like one of my best friends.

Good job guys! We're a pretty good looking lot I'd say!

Crap, that link is from my Ringo account.....I am photo/online posting retarded.

Try snapfish (www.snapfish.com). It's pretty foolproof.

Love him! I lost my lab last march.. she was a fox red beauty! I am sooo partial to labs! and shaved head ... a good friend of mine last year shaved her head for a cancer fundraiser and said it was the most liberating thing she has ever done! Girl you've got the bone structure to pull that off for a long time. I am envious.

Search and Rescue.... way way cool.

And Taste... you have a very handsome little man..... Must take after his mommy! Was the graduation recent? If so... congrats!

Mastermind... cant' see the pic's...

And scorpian boy, haven't been able to see your's either. Even though TJ swears that we can right click, not working!

I'll have TJ post a wedding pic (not too old.. july of 04... but being in my home town and having a desk job... got the weight gain thing goin' on!) (I have to tell him what to post...if not, you'll get an ass shot of me bending over in the garden this summer!)




We are way way jealous! You've been to the Coliseum! I've only studied it and seen a zillion and one documetaries...

Do you live there? or were you visiting. Anyway around it... great experience... especially for the kids.

I was just telling TJ, if we had money to travel we would have cool places to go and great people to get to know! Hopefully someday! We haven't taken a honeymoon ( no fundage) and are hoping to travel abroad....well actually live abroad someday. I am hopefull that not only we can have a US poac meet up... but be able to visit those in other countries! (I am a dreamer at this point)

My Blog

If you go to my blog you can see all the pics there and more.

Proof a picture is worth at least 2 words!

Holy shit those are funny sky!!

Graduation was in Dec of 03, so the pic isn't particularly brand new, but you get the idea...

It is awesome to have a face to put with everyone now. So cool. I hope more people share.

By the way Robin, nobody cares about the "putting on weight thing", and I think this forum is the perfect example of how you love people for who they are inside and that makes everything else perfect NO MATTER WHAT!! Besides, I'm sure Tj loves ya to pieces, and that's all that really counts anyhow. Oh ya, just wait until you have a baby, oh that is sooo fun for the figure!

Everyone is beautiful and its so very interesting to see everyone. Now at least when I talk to people about the things we talk about on here (um, yes I do that, does that make me completely pathetic?) I can actually pretend I "know" you guys!! HEHE.

Quick edit...
I sorta had my pic of sky right in my head, though I didn't have the mustache and I would have NEVER guessed the cowboy hat.

Also, LOVE the horsey pic. HA!

So nice to see everyone. Holden is a cutie!

No, I do not live in Italy. We go on a company trip every summer that only costs us pocket money. The one last June was a cruise that began in Barcelona, with stops at Nice, Marseille, Livorno (Florence), Roma, and Napoli. That was the first time my kids had been out of the country, a very good experience for them.

This year the company trip is to somewhere we do not care to go, so we're going to Germany on our own dime for Spring break. I went to high school in Duesseldorf, so we're staying with a friend there for a few days, then going south to Bavaria for a few days.

Sorry if this sounds like bragging to anyone, but this is my life....

Here's my mug taken a few months ago...

Ok, lets see if this works this time.....

It works!



Sure looks like you had a great Christmas!

Your kids are beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!

And I was SOOOO right about what I thought you would look like!
HA

This is Sadie. The face of god on earth. As for me, uh, the dog at my homework.

I been thinkin I shouild get myself a critter, and I want a dog.



Anybody got idea about what sort of dog would be good for a single guy that lives alone?
A Dog that can handle being by it's self most every weekday and not suffer seperation anxiety by chewing and digging up every plant on the yard?

A Critter with energy and vitality, intelligence and curiosity enough to play and explore,
and 35 lbs or less full growed?


I'd love to have a lab, but where I live I'm limited to 35 lbs.
hell, I've seen cats that big. I spose the weight could be fudged a few, but not a lot.

MM, your kids are so cute!

Thank you, thank you! I thought about sending in a pic showing all my tattoos, but I thought that if I am going to show off, might as well be the best things I got.


Sky, I would say get one of those "miniture" breds, but I think they have all the mental problems you dont want. A coco lab would be best in your climite I think, but they get real big, buts its a coco lab would would care? Everyone loves a coco lab.

Lefty, Ping and MM, you all have beautiful children!

Sky, you look just like you did last time I saw you!

Zooks, I always thought you used your own pic as your avatar and that you were simply a child prodigy. You shatter my illusions, though they are somewhat recovered by the proper reverence you show Sadie.

Billy, I always just assumed you looked like John Lenon...

Sky, there are dozens of excellent breed choices that will fit your criteria. My suggestion would be to look to the terriers, most of which will fit the size and activity level you want, are tenacious little buggers who never give up, and, as a group, tend to be whip smart. There are several terriers that have care-free coats and which shed little if at all, and most are amenable to our climate.

Scorp, we are a good looking group, aren't we? How does that saying go?; dems are sexier than republicans, because, after all, no one ever chased after a nice piece of elephant.

Suddenly, in one fell swoop, you've all become human beings, and how cool is that!

Ya, that's my favorite part. Nice to meet everyone!

MM. what cute kids!

I'll have to find someone to take my picture. But I don't think blind people show up well in photos.

I was going to post a picture of jeff foxworthy and say that it looked like sky but for some reason, it didn't work. Now i am leaving.

It is my experience that blind people look well, they just don't see well.

Looking forward to your picture!


Ahem... Aren't we forgetting something?...

That's blonde people who don't show up well.

He does!!!!

VT, very true, it does bring people into a different "light" once I know what they look like.

Thanks Pinget, your kids look beautiful and handsome. I am a huge Roma buff and history nerd too and I have never left the Americas before, well islands, but they dont count. I have always wanted to cross the great oceans. You are so lucky!

Okay, so I'm a computer idiot; I still don't know how to get a photo from snapfish to here.

Copy the address of the picture you uploaded to snapfish,
open an add text window to the forum,
click the little picture Icon that is just over the text box,
paste the address into the dialoge box.
Click ok!

Then click to check yer post to make sure it worked!

damn, we're some good looking people.

I guess that's cuz progressive types are just higher evolved

They keep saying that Liberals are Sexy!

Sorry, not having any luck here.

Dju got any 12 year olds around?

Kids are always good for a little humility.




Helping out my good buddy Sooner 2b......







We really are quite a collection aren't we?

Yep, I see the similarity too!

Sure, why not ? These are especially for Robin, Billy & Sky.....and most especially for Zooks.

This is me being re-born....
;-)

After that, I saw the light.....

;-)>

.....and all kindsa things in trees.....

Me on the left ( where else ? ) .......

Me up real close........

After Hours and very tired......

Last but not least, the suit used to fit, as this photo shows.....

I've put on 20 Kilos since. HepC kept me thin. Getting rid of it made me real. My very last post-therapie checkup
is this friday. Let's celebrate life and liberty. Love, we celebrated yesterday, right ? But now that I think of it, it would only
be fair if I posted the same on my blog. What a great idea ! We should be up to a whopping 5 active users after this !

LOL

Jayhawk,

I have visited your site on several occasions and read the posts, but have not yet signed up. Not sure why not. Hey, maybe I'll become one of the 13 (if I join) registered users!!! For real though, there are some pretty interesting conversations over there. And I do enjoy the site.



(also, yer quite cute yourself.) ANd I do have to say, as a group we are all pretty darn hot! Man, imagine if we all got in a group somewhere in public, not only would we have the NSA following us (at a nice distance, of course) but we would be overrun by mobs of screaming horny men and women! and possibly an animal or two that were all just overcome by our combined awesomeness! hehehehehehe

Damn, I should have left it that way!



~Shears

Ha, my wife was crushing on Jay.

Im not opposed to us getting together at some national rally or protest. Maybe even have a POAC member shirt or something.

This really is an enjoyable thread!

We are such hotties all, but I nominate Jayhawk and Lefty as our male and female pinups. Serious cuties!

Soon, love the beard, the dog and the sweatshirt!

Billy, I actually think you look better than Lenon, no bullshit.

Now that I've seen his face and his kids I may have to stop barking so hard at MM. Ok, ok, but at least I'll find it harder!

Jesus, Robin, come on in, the water's fine!

Thank you all for becoming real.

I have seen a picture of Robin, Kinda.
She was bent over at the hip working the garden.

From what I could see She's a keeper!
