Pictures of Us

[Blizzard]

Sarah!!!! Come on give us more! At least a nose, or a cheek. How about a right eye? :lol:

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Long Anticipated! Two photos of me! Taken just minutes ago!

I have a nice hand, Y/Y?

Well, you certainly have creative hands, judging from your art thread. :)

See the plug I gave you there? That'll be £1 please. :laughing:

[Horse_Head]

You work cheap!

[leiaorgana]

Lol! Nice Sarah, nice :wink:

[Jedi Master Harrison]

^ C'mon Flo, please post some pics of Finland and England! You have so many good ones! :hug:

[Blizzard]

[Tovor]

A girl named Violet and 4 men in black. Nice pic. :ok:

[Blizzard]

Awesome pic, Horsey! The video was great/cool/funny too! :D

[Horse_Head]

Thanks... here's the video in case anyone else cares... :P
YouTube - Santa Monica Pier (mini) YouTube Gathering - SurfTube '08

[empire21]

Violet is pretty hot. :superhappy:

[thepepgal]

A few pics for Horsey to prove I made it to his part of the world last week.

[flo fett]

Cool pics Pep! :superhappy:

Here's one of me this afternoon at Collectormania when MK and I found a Mando!
I apologise for my hideousness but my excitement at finding a Mando overruled my picturehating. :laughing: The picture was blurry so I had to make it smaller.
He's a lovely Scottish Mando called Lasruin Toth over from over at the Mandalorian Mercs (http://mercs.firespray.net/main/)

You've made it to his level of geekness, too. :ok:

Cool... There's hardly ever Star Wars costumed peeps on City Walk ... that must have been during the Clone Wars mayhem, right? :w00t:

[T-bone]

:nahnah::nahnah::nahnah:

[Horse_Head]

Great pics... except the ones of that guy with his fingers stuck to his temples. :D

[thepepgal]

You've made it to his level of geekness, too. :ok:

Actually I think I was there prior to this trip. :wink:

Thanks Horsey. That pic was taken the day before the movie opened.

Nice pics T-bone

[Darill Cyllem]

At last!
Some photos from the International UK Meet-Up of 08!

JMH was so lovely as a host (and what did i do to show my appreciation? Stole his plug adapter! :doh: I'm mailing it back, i promise!).
I arrived in England on my birthday, and JMH collected me from the airport, had presents for me, AND made dinner. By the Force, English women must all be completely insane not to have snapped this man up already!

1) JMH cooking.
2) dinner
3) exterior of the carriage museum (free and way more interesting than it sounds)
4-10) cemetery in Maidstone (so i like dead things, ok?)

[Darill Cyllem]

More adventures!

1) JMH and a new friend. We tried to get him to join the GS, but he said he didn't know how to type. Sad.
2) at the Maidstone Musuem
3) I made dinner. It was enjoyed, even by JMH, who complained bitterly the rest of the week about having to do the washing up. JMH, Oran, and Oran's missus.
4) Oran must be convinced to be visible in photos!
5) DC and JMH on some swings.
6) JMH going for a stroll (with cape)
7-10) Kentish countryside. V. pretty.

[Darill Cyllem]

Not done yet....

1) a nice bridge
2) JMH and DC near said bridge
3) cows
4) swans
5) funnies

6) and then there were 6... Flo and MK join the party. JMH wears his new t-shirt.
7) MK doesn't like photos either. Humph.
8) Who took this picture?? Seriously.
9) I resorted to sneaky measures to capture Oran's image. This one was taken without his knowledge. Bwahaha! I don't know why he has such objections - he is v. handsome just like his brother.
10) Oran's missus, Oran, MK, JMH, and Flo on a pub patio

[Darill Cyllem]

Still more....

1) DC, Oran (ducking out of sight), MK, JMH, Flo
9) with DC poking Oran to make sure he's in frame

Clone Wars day!! What fun! Cassus and JB joined us as well.
2) JMH, JB, Flo, and MK
3) Cassus (sorry you're a bit cut off, dear), JMH, Oran's missus, Oran, JB, Flo, MK
4) same crowd, minus Cassus, plus DC
5) i bet you know who's who by now
6) cozy at JMH's house
7) JB and friend. Beer and toys - JB was a happy man that day. Look how cute he is!
8) Awww... a charming photo of Cassus

[Darill Cyllem]

Drunken (some of us more so than others) revelry .

I also have some video, but must convert the format. Cassus will be glad when I have. Heh heh heh.

1 and 2) the culprits
3) Oran and MK (no longer camera shy)
4) the crew in poor lighting
5) the crew with flash: JMH, Flo, DC, JB, Oran, MK, Cassus
6) snacks
7) Cassus and JMH. Oh, dear.
8) MK and DC - yays!
9) The aftermath.

:grouphug:

[Blizzard]

OMG! OMG! DC comes through with the pics!!!! :happydance:

Sleeping monkeys! Dinner! I am so jealous! Someday I will hug you all in person! (And Flo Babe again!)

Awesome pics Pep and T-boner. Wow the kids are soooo big!

[Snake_Judge]

http://www.galacticsenate.com/album.php?albumid=7


New Picture Added, I call it Blind snake.

[Horse_Head]

Wow... many cool pics. :yes:

[Tovor]

Fantabulous pics, Darill. It looks like you all had a grand time. I got a chuckel out of the one titled sleeping monkeys. To think, you left the monkeys in Africa to observe other monkeys in the UK. :P

[Tovor]

I like the one of JB and the Alien, too. Take note of the alien's mouth sticking out and the direction of his head...he wants that beer! :herebeer:

[Orandhite]

DC - one can go off people pretty quickly you know. :nahnah:

[thepepgal]

OMG! OMG! DC comes through with the pics!!!! :happydance:

Thanks Blizzee.

Great pics DC & Snake Judge.:)

I'm a little concerned that the first batch of DC pics were of a cemetery. I understand she likes dead things but one of the pics included Andy. Wonders if this is why Andy hasn't played the tournament games in a few days. :wink:

[Lord Senes]

Great pics DC! hmm... Wasn't that pub with the Lidl bag The Children Hunters? Looks familiar...


Andy, you should have taken the lot to The Druid's Arms...

[flo fett]

We did go to the Druid Arms, thats where the pic of Bendu with his Alien was taken :superhappy:

[Lord Senes]

Cool! The best pub in Kent... :P

[Cassus Fett]

Yay! Pics are up... hmmm when are the dreaded vidoes coming

[Darill Cyllem]

Soon, Precious... don't you worry. The GS will know all about your various talents soon enough. :wink:

[Zedekk]

Great pix DC thanks for sharing. And thanks to all the senators that put up with the posing and the ginning! It's great to see you guys. :picture:

[Darill Cyllem]

I knew Blizzee would want full photo documentation... just for you, Sis!
:hugs:

[JediBendu]

7) JB and friend. Beer and toys - JB was a happy man that day. Look how cute he is!


happy coz I found the only geek store in maidstone and found it via the only sex shop in maidstone!!

top pics :D

[Orandhite]

There's a sex shop in Maidstone?!

WHY WASN'T I AWARE! :mad:

[Jedi Master Harrison]

There's 2 actually, Ann Summers in the main shopping bit and then some dodgy one somewhere just outta town.

Anyway, loving the pics DC! So many happy memories! :superhappy: I demand to meet more of you Senators! :rockon:

[thepepgal]

I'll welcome you at Brisbane airport when you get off the plane to come visit me. :wink:

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Cool, I've not been to Australia yet! :) Is it ok to bring 7 mad UK Senators with me? :laughing:

[thepepgal]

Cool, I've not been to Australia yet! :) Is it ok to bring 7 mad UK Senators with me? :laughing:

I'd prefer if they were happy Senators and if you can all fit in the same double bed ... sure. :wink:

[Blizzard]

I knew Blizzee would want full photo documentation... just for you, Sis!
:hugs:Thank you darling Sis!! You are the best!! :hugs:

[Jedi Master Harrison]

I'd prefer if they were happy Senators and if you can all fit in the same double bed ... sure. :wink:

Hmmmmm, well I think Flo and I might fit in, but the rest will have to kip elsewhere! :ohhlala: :laughing:

[Darill Cyllem]

*refers Andy to the first line of his signature*

[Jedi Master Harrison]

^ :glare: Says the thief! :nahnah:

[Darill Cyllem]

Hey, i sent that back to you!

[flo fett]

:laughing:

[Darill Cyllem]

Cassus lip syncing....
The best part is that one can't hear the song he's pretending to sing!

[flo fett]

OMG, I sound like such a freak LOL :lol:

[Darill Cyllem]

No you don't!

[Jedi Master Harrison]

We all sound like freaks! :laughing:

[flo fett]

Do you know that since I heard myself on your CD that you gave me DC I've tried not to speak unless I've had to. It actually made me feel ill to listen to myself.

[Darill Cyllem]

No!
You have a very pleasant voice and accent!
Anyone will tell you!
:(

And if they say otherwise I'll make them regret it.

[Snake_Judge]

I like Flo's Voice

[flo fett]

No, I sound so rough and common. I feel quite down about it.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Do you know that since I heard myself on your CD that you gave me DC I've tried not to speak unless I've had to. It actually made me feel ill to listen to myself.

Fool. Stop now or I will neg rep every post you have ever made!

[Darill Cyllem]

No, I sound so rough and common. I feel quite down about it.
Well, look on the bright side - you could have a Minnesota accent like me instead!

:lol:

[Darill Cyllem]

And here's Cassus singing....
Oh, dear.

[Snake_Judge]

The video is no longer available :(

[Darill Cyllem]

That's odd... it still shows up and plays for me....
Anyone else having trouble?

[Snake_Judge]

Working for me now

[Jedi Master Harrison]

*Dies of embarrassment* But not as much as Sam will! :w00t:

[flo fett]

I just like my face at the end as the camera slides round :lol:

[Darill Cyllem]

You might regret that it's working, though, Snake.
It's obvious Flo's enjoying the performance, isn't it.
:lol:

Aww... Cassus - you're a good sport.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

You need to put it up in the karaoke thread too! :laughing:

[Jedi Master Harrison]

I just like my face at the end as the camera slides round :lol:

You're just jealous he's singing to me instead of you! :rofl:

[flo fett]

Of course. Deeply.

[Darill Cyllem]

You need to put it up in the karaoke thread too! :laughing:
Good idea!

[Slick]

Damn, I wish my internet moved at a reasonable pace so I could watch these videos... they sound rather amusing.

[flo fett]

Just be greatful you haven't heard them cos my awful accent screeching at you would make you never want to speak to me again and I would lose a friend.

[Darill Cyllem]

You do not screech, Flo!
Sam is the only one who does any screeching in those videos.

[Horse_Head]

Wasn't that a deleted scene from Top Gun?! :P

[Jedi Master Harrison]

That should just be a deleted scene full stop! :rofl:

[Jjm3233]

:rofl: rofl :laughing: Thanks DC!

[Blizzard]

Well, look on the bright side - you could have a Minnesota accent like me instead!

:lol:OMG I have missed your voice so much, Flo!!! I love it! Yes, at least you don't have a Minnesooota accent. I sound like a Norwegian reject.

Woohoo Sam!! I love it!!! I want to hear Andy talking.

[Darth Darthy]

Wow, how many beers did you have by then?!? And Flo, your accent is rather alluring...

[lovelucas]

Let's all move the homeland

[Darill Cyllem]

OMG I have missed your voice so much, Flo!!! I love it! Yes, at least you don't have a Minnesooota accent. I sound like a Norwegian reject.

Woohoo Sam!! I love it!!! I want to hear Andy talking.

:lol:
I kind of dig on the MN accent, though, really....
I've been noticing it a lot more since I've been back (on the radio, etc.) Ah, it's nice to be home! :superhappy:

[Tovor]

Are there any more videos of your get-together?

[Darill Cyllem]

A couple, not many. I'll try to get them loaded next week.

[JediBendu]

I can't remember any of that at all!!! :/

[Orandhite]

^ YOu had probably disappeared by that stage. :wink:

DC, Flo, Blizzee - you all have very sexy voices, so stop having a downer on yourself. At least you don't talk through your nose like I do! :D Degenerate that I am.

[JediBendu]

^ YOu had probably disappeared by that stage. :wink:


but I carried Cassus half way home?!? :ugh:

[Blizzard]

[Jedi Master Harrison]

OMG I have missed your voice so much, Flo!!! I love it! Yes, at least you don't have a Minnesooota accent. I sound like a Norwegian reject.

Woohoo Sam!! I love it!!! I want to hear Andy talking.

If you have heard Chris talking then you have heard me talking. I once spent 15 minutes on the phone to his girlfriend and it was only when she started telling me she loved me that I realised she in fact did not realise it was me and not Chris!!! :rofl:

Wow, how many beers did you have by then?!? And Flo, your accent is rather alluring...

Er, quite a few. I can't remember whether that was before or after the 62% rum shot Sam kindly bought us. And the sambuca. :thud:

[Orandhite]

but I carried Cassus half way home?!? :ugh:

I would just like to say:

HA HA!

Sexy voice? What are you talking about?

I need a cold shower. :love:

[Zach30019]

:rofl:

Great job Cassus! really entertaining

[Obidobi]

Taken yesterday at the wheelhouse of my ship "Viking Vision".
For those who don't know me, I'm the one with the sexy legs. The guy in red is our "deck cadet" Paul and the guy in blue is one of the British seismic guys, Ian.

Right now we're in the Gulf of Mexico in the path of "Gustav". We're taking in all our equipment as of now and is heading southwest towards Mexico. Hopefully we'll manage to escape....:yes:

[Tovor]

What are you doing there, Dobes, piloting the ship with the invisible helm? :laughing:

[Obidobi]

What are you doing there, Dobes, piloting the ship with the invisible helm? :laughing:
Yep....Welcome to the 21st century Tov....:wink:

[Tovor]

Impressive. What else do you have aboard that new-fangled vessel? Anti-grav skiffs and warm bodied androids?

[Darill Cyllem]

but I carried Cassus half way home?!? :ugh:
Yes! The lucky boy....

Lookin good! :thumbs-up:

[Lord Senes]

Me? dark side? :rockon:

[Cassus Fett]

*Dies of embarrassment* But not as much as Sam will! :w00t:

*dies of embarrassment aswell*



Er, quite a few. I can't remember whether that was before or after the 62% rum shot Sam kindly bought us. And the sambuca. :thud:

Thats what im using as an excuse aswell

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Me? dark side? :rockon:

Unusual to see you in a pub mate! :laughing:

[Darill Cyllem]

Yay! Senes!
Don't let that innocent face fool you, folks.... :wink:

[T-bone]

Diznit!

[Blizzard]

Good to see I am not the only Senate dork riding the speeder bike in semi-costume! I see you jumped the rope and stood under the AT-AT, too. Nice!

[Darill Cyllem]

Cute little Mando you've got there, T!

[empire21]

Diznit!

What the hell are you doing in that 3rd pic?

You droid molester. :giveup:

[Horse_Head]

^ That's a moisture vaporator... Duh.

[empire21]

My apologies. T-bone is now known as the molester of moisture vaporators. :P

[T-bone]

:):):)

[T-bone]

:nahnah::laughing::doh:

[thepepgal]

Love all the pics T. :)

[Solo]

Nice pictures boss.

[Horse_Head]

Wow... Jasmine is looking hot!

[Zedekk]

Aargh, captain!

[Blizzard]

I had to save all those awesome pics last night before bed, T. Right after Cam and I laughed at them all (in a good way). Way cool! :superhappy:

[T-bone]

Tons more on myspace and facebook.
there were a total of like...1500 or something.
no way i'm posting all of em! hahah

[Darill Cyllem]

You make a great Captain Jack, T!
:cptn:

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Very cool T! :w00t:

[RollaFett]

Good looking family there, boss!

PS- Is it just me or does T look a little too happy in that Jasmine pic? :P

[T-bone]

i am the happiest man alive in that photo.
i wanted to put her in my suitcase and take her home with me.

[empire21]

She looks pretty tiny, I bet she would have fit.

[Tovor]

Did your wife see you romancing Minnie Mouse? Did Minnie ask you if you were a man or a mouse? She always was a sl*t for married men.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Ok, since a few people have asked, here is a (not very good) picture of me and my new lady friend.

[JediBendu]

Ok, since a few people have asked, here is a (not very good) picture of me and my new lady friend.

have u showed her your emu yet? =)

[Jedi Master Harrison]

No, not yet. But when I do, she'll be adult and love him!

[Talcy]

Okay, what?

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Remember Emu, as in Rod Hull? I have an emu hand puppet. All the women (apart from Flo and DC, who are for some reason scared of him, the big jessies! :doh:) love emu! :)

[Talcy]

Everyone should be afraid of Emu! He was and is a force of evil!

[thepepgal]

Nice pic Andy

Aussie women aren't scared of emu. Emus are aussie birds. Rod and emu use to be very funny. The amount of crotches he tried to grab and reaction of the guest was priceless. :laughing:

[Darill Cyllem]

JMH:
1) Your lady is completely lovely! Yays!!

2) Do not confuse repulsion with fear. They are often related, but they are, in fact, different things.

[Solo]

Ok, since a few people have asked, here is a (not very good) picture of me and my new lady friend.

Lucky boy. :cheers: I wish the best for both of you.

Nooooooooooooooooooooo!

Repulsion, ha! It's a hand puppet, made into a cute bird! Much lovlier than a manky chimpanzee! :wink:

Edit: And thanks too Solo.

[Darill Cyllem]

Repulsion, ha! It's a hand puppet, made into a cute bird! Much lovlier than a manky chimpanzee! :wink:


You see... if I like manky chimpanzees (which i freely admit that i do) and am repusled by Emu... what does that say about Emu?

Right. I'm leaving that.

I'm glad to see your lady, though!

[empire21]

Good stuff, Andy! :wink:

[Horse_Head]

Crappy pic, but at least half of the image is worth looking at... :P


Here I am the last time I rode the Simpsons Ride...

[Cassus Fett]

Not really any pictures of me, but i watched the senior course doing thier Crash Night Fire, which i will have to do in about 5 weeks time.

Picture 1: Multi Aircraft Simulator with the RIV (Rapid Intervention Vehicle) to the right and the MFV (Multi Foam Vehicle) to the left.
Picture 2: MFV at the front of the Multi Sim
Picture 3: RIV
Picture 4: Fire's out, Volvo Saxon (Domestic Fire Appliance) at scene providing support for the two MFV's, One RIV and 19 Firefighters.

[empire21]

Wow, that must have been quite the sight.

[Cassus Fett]

Yeah it was, the heat from it was amazing aswell

wow... Fires scare the heck out of me and yet there are those who train to put themselves in the middle of the inferno and conquer them.

Cheers and bravo.

[Cassus Fett]

Thanks, its a hard job to train for but its ultimately rewarding.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

^ Not if you get burned to death! You know I'm only kidding mate, it's a great job you and all the guys and gals do. :wtg: Be safe fella. :)

[thepepgal]

You're welcome. If I have to get the the whole emu thing since I am an Aussie and the character actually originate from here.

You see... if I like manky chimpanzees (which i freely admit that i do) and am repusled by Emu... what does that say about Emu?

Right. I'm leaving that.


It says emu is a bird that has feathers not a monkey which has fur. :wink:

Fur is nicer to touch.

Crappy pic, but at least half of the image is worth looking at...


Here I am the last time I rode the Simpsons Ride...

Nice pic. Not quite a distance memory for me (the ride I mean) yet but nearly a month ago now. :(

Thanks, its a hard job to train for but its ultimately rewarding.

Good luck in 5 weeks.

[Talcy]

It says emu is a bird that has feathers not a monkey which has fur. :wink:


Erm, I think DC might take just a little issue with part of that statement. (ducks for cover)

[flo fett]

Oh no...she said monkey *gets behind talcy's cover*

[flo fett]

Ok, since a few people have asked, here is a (not very good) picture of me and my new lady friend.
Lovely. :superhappy:

apart from Flo and DC, who are for some reason scared of him, the big jessies! :doh:

*raises eyebrow* I'm not scared of him as you are well aware, I just think you're really creepy when you bring him out. :nahnah:

JMH:
2) Do not confuse repulsion with fear. They are often related, but they are, in fact, different things.
Exactly.

[thepepgal]

Erm, I think DC might take just a little issue with part of that statement. (ducks for cover)

If she does then I'm sorry as I don't mean to offend.

[Darill Cyllem]

^No worries at all, Pep....
The point being made was, I think, that chimps (whether manky or not) are not, in the strictest sense of the word, monkeys. They are apes. I try not to worry too much about this distinction... it's like a paleontologist getting all bent out of shape over someone calling Dimetrodon a dinosaur (technically, it's another thing called a pelycosaur).
But I like monkeys, too!
:monkey:

For me (a layperson), I think of humans as monkeys / primates but just a more sophisticated and chimps are the closest cousin we have. Unfortunately I'm not knowledgeable on what the difference between them is. DC if you would like to pm me and explain the difference I'd appreciate it (just dumb it down as I'm an aussie:wink:). I always willing to learn.

Many people say koala bear but they are no relation to the bear at all. Aussies that know the truth let it go, as koalas are as cuddly as teddy bears (as long as they are drunk from munching on eucalyptus leaves).

Makes mental note not never to use the m word again.

Only kidding, pep! :)

That's ok. Actually I have SW fans tell me I'm not a fan for making mistakes with pronounications or not knowing the specs to ships. So I fear SW fans who may yell at me for a small mistake. Your comment gave memory flashes of these moments.

I'm a fan just not fanatical. I love characters and their development. I realise they are just films, novels (including graphic), pc games and tv shows. For me it's stress relief and sometimes I love it for it to be real and maybe I could visit it.

[Tovor]

You know, when I was a child my mother told me that chimpanzees get offended if you call them monkeys. I believed her, and when I was an adult I was at the primate cages at the zoo and I intentionally called a chimp a monkey. I shouted it out to be sure he heard me. He responded with a retort of doo doo he flung at me. Chimps need to lighten up a bit and not take things so seriously. I tell you.

[Darill Cyllem]

Lookin good, Snake!
Are we voting?
The first one (on the stairs) is my fav, and I think the 2nd one (sitting on a rock) is especially nice, too. :)

[Snake_Judge]

Are we voting?
If you want I can add them in there own Album

[Darill Cyllem]

I just meant... if you want my opinion, those are the ones I like best. :) You should organize your album(s) the way that makes the most sense to you.

Cool ^
I think the last one is still my favorite, but the first one is now tied with the second last, where you're sitting on a rock. Very nice photos all around.

[flo fett]

Yeah, you're a good looking fella Snake! :w00t:

[Blizzard]

The last one there is my fave, too.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

You look like the lead singer of some trendy rock band, or whatever cool type of music you kids listen to nowadays.




^ OMG T, you have to get a yin yang inside a rebel insignia! :yes:

[Horse_Head]

Here's an option...

:P


(sans watermark of course)

[Blizzard]

^Love that, Horse!!

Wow, you didn't have that rebel insignia there when I looked last. I love it!

[Horse_Head]

Vague A$$

[Tovor]

Wait...doesn't that imply that the evil empire and the nice rebellion coexist in harmony? My dear Horse, that is a conundrum and a paradox.

[thepepgal]

I like the ying yang star wars. You can't have a Rebellion without an Empire.

Horsey love the Vegas pics.:) I wish I was back there. :(

[Horse_Head]

Wait...doesn't that imply that the evil empire and the nice rebellion coexist in harmony? My dear Horse, that is a conundrum and a paradox.
More like you can't have one without the other. :P

[JackBauer24]

Finally, a new picture!

To refresh your memory, the first picture is of me, taken in early March. The second, the new one, was taken last Friday, on my way to my best friend's wedding. I'm roughly 20-25 pounds lighter!

[flo fett]

Looking good sweeheart! And congrats on dropping the pounds! :w00t:

[JackBauer24]

Thanks, Flo! Cross your fingers- I'm hoping to lose another 25-30 over the next year.

[Tovor]

That's really impressive dude. You're looking very good. Good work! :victory:

[Horse_Head]

Now all you need is a better camera and yer set. :P

[JackBauer24]

^ Exactly. The first picture was a polaroid that someone at work had; the second was a disposible camera I had for the wedding.

[lovelucas]

For Snake-
There we go all of the Senior Pictures I like

The last one is slickly cool, shows a great jaw line and is very artistic; the one before it captures the beauty of Michigan and your place in it; but- I wouldn't say no to the thumbs up of the third one.


Still, I agree with the consensus - the last one is the one I would enlarge, and make a multitude of wallet-sized for distribution and publication.

[Snake_Judge]

The third one is pretty much a joke one. I was goofing around and I didn't notice she took a picture.

[lovelucas]

ahh - so it's a candid.. which is true to life?

[Snake_Judge]

Any where I am not smiling.

[lovelucas]

what's not to love and smile about? Senior pressure to have a plan? The never ending, so where are you going to go to college? The other never ending question:so what are you going to do with the rest of your life?

Just a word from a voice of (lots of) experience: no one else knows either.

[Snake_Judge]

what's not to love and smile about? Senior pressure to have a plan? The never ending, so where are you going to go to college? The other never ending question:so what are you going to do with the rest of your life?

I may never see my best friend again, that is the main thing. Also I don't like getting my picture taken.

[lovelucas]

oh yes, for sure.
I never mind going to others' graduations but when my twin boys graduated (the last ones) I was nearly despondent. and their terrific friend who was allowed at the last minute to speak at their graduation said many wonderful things but the one I remember most was: Look at the person the right side of you....now look at the person on your left side. Really look at them, Really talk to them ....because chances are you will never seem them again after tonight.

whoa....I miss my kids' high school years so much. They had fantastic groups of friends - I was the mom who brought treats to sports events (cross country, diving, cheerleading, football and even...wrestling) - I was the mom who picked up the entire team in a beat up old Ford van with no seats in it... I was the one who called the entire marching band members' (nearly 200 strong) parents when they were arriving back from Europe - Marks' final high school event ever. I never realized how sad he was (he was the drum major) until he told me later...he thought he was leaving all the glory behind....and then he was accepted into the Michigan Marching Band where...wow...I can't begin to tell you how magnificent it all was. He was so lucky in the timing - he was there - and so was I and his grandma - in Pasadena for the Rose Bowl in the year Michigan became the National Champions.
There are glory stories for each of my kids in college - and they all went to different colleges - even Mark's identical twin brother - who graduated from WMU.

There's a wonderful world out there. and it doesn't have to be the end of a close friendship. My twin sons' closest friends were another set of identical twins - they didn't go to college, they didn't leave the home town but they're still their best friends - they were all in each others' weddings. At the risk of blasphemy I say, Make It So.

[Snake_Judge]

I hope Slick and I can stay in contact but oceans tend to cause issues with that...

[flo fett]

I may never see my best friend again, that is the main thing. Also I don't like getting my picture taken.

You will see him again. If you are truly friends (which I know you are) you will see him again. An ocean can't keep friends from friends, you will always find a way.
:hug:
Trust me. And give me a smile, just a little one (I promise I won't take a photo).

[lovelucas]

an oily attempt at humor -
my back yard but the focus is front and center

[Solo]

Nice backyard.

And olive oil a healthy choice.

[Darill Cyllem]

The blue bricks background one is very striking, Snake.
And everything LL said about friends and high school and life... yes, a thousand times! And especially what Flo said about friends, too.
:hugs:


So is that pretty much the best olive oil you've ever had, LL?
Great find!

[Darill Cyllem]

Whoops... double post!
But a friend of mine just sent me this photo of myself from a party on Friday.
Maybe i should ask him to do the photos for our wedding, as i didn't even know he'd taken this photo and I still look nice.....

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Very nice DC. You look very posh and grown up! :) A bit different to the clothes you wore here after being in Tanzania! :lol:

[Darill Cyllem]

A bit different to the clothes you wore here after being in Tanzania! :lol:

True enough!
I clean up ok, though.
And my bed bug bite scars are slowly fading, which helps.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Yes you do! I am glad your bites are better! :)

As I am aware you look all the time...

What's not to look good? Mmmm...tall, sexy, slim, well proportioned *wiggles eyebrows*

Yeah it's hard to see the sexiness DC!

*sighs*

There are times I don't look good... i just don't post those pics :wink:
Anyway - thanks, Flo. You sure make me smile :)

No, not yet. But when I do, she'll be adult and love him!

Glamour Puss - Really nice.
and yes - Skywalker Ranch would be my favorite brand of olive oil but following right behind it is the one I have from Lake Como.

Great younglings pix T. They are transformed in formal clothes but they're primo cute - and you're no ugly duckling yourself. and Mrs T- goes w/o saying.

[Tovor]

wedding


In the first and third pics, T, you remind me of someone. I sense something, a face I've not seen since...

I can't think of his name, but you look almost just a little bit like him...

BTW, who got married, Sitting Bull?



EDIT:
Oh right, here he is. I knew I was on to something there. :ok:

[Blizzard]

^That needs mod fixing. I know you are only linking from other sites because your comp died Tovey...

The actor's name is Judd Nelson. he appeared in many teenage films in the 80's.

Blizzee the mirror shot is great.:)

[Talcy]

Fatty does archery.

[Solo]

Nice pictures. I didn't know that you were an archer.

[Talcy]

I'm not. It was my first go at it while on holiday last week in Crieff.

[Jedi Master Harrison]

Great pics everyone! :rockon:

I love archery, mind you, I haven't partaken in many years now. :ohwell:

[Lord Senes]

hmm... that gives me an idea... The official GS Europe Archery "Contest" after a pub crawl... next time I'm in the UK I gots to try that out!

[JackBauer24]

Drunken archery?! Oh...that does not sound like a good idea. One way or another, someone's gonna get penetrated.

[Tovor]

^That needs mod fixing. I know you are only linking from other sites because your comp died Tovey...
I didn't hotlink those, did I? You're right about why I couldn't upload them, but I just highlighted and right-clicked and copied the pics and pasted them in my post. Ithought I was copying the image itself, not the url.

Right, I remembered the name after the initialpost. That's how I was able to Google-image his pics. Thanks. :)
