Really neat pics, dude! You make me think of some "wealthy young man about town" for those of you who know the radio classics.

Lovely, Nerdanel.

Here's me in what my little sister described as the "looking at sunset" pose. It could very well have made a good presidential pose



and this is our "shadow cat". Very strange creature.

I have a request for anyone with photoshop:

I need you to take one of my pictures, a picture of a very presidential torso (say, Reagan's), and then superimpose my head onto the torso. After that, get the Entmoot banner, make a sort of "flag out of it, and make it so that I am standing in front of the flag.

The idea is to make a "patriotic" picture of me with the flag baehind me. Of this sort:

I would've done it myself, if I had photoshop.

I don't remember any "patriotic" pictures of you. I remember a picture you made where you were grabbing someone's hand and trying to steal their money though.
