Wow, lots of people I haven't seen before. Time to put up the few pics of me I have (on a computer that is):



I'm the blond one. With my friend Matt, overlooking Baie Fine, on Mt. Baldy near Birch Island, Ontario.



The only other pic I could find. 3000' above Baraga, Michigan. I really need to get a scanner.

Oh that is totally a ok. People constantly think I'm out of line. I'm just not that fond of lines.

Compared to my friends and most people I know I am a really understanding and sympathetic person when it comes to 9/11. I may sound callous but that drama queen thing some (not all) americans need to play out every time they see a photograph of... <sniff> before ... .... <sob>



People die every day. Ain't nothing you can do about it. We don't like to hear it. But it *is* true. Unless you know of someone with superpowers to resurrect the dead -s*?

Ohe here I go again being callous. Tsk tsk. Shame on me. Death is a part of life. We should respect it even embrace it when it comes. You shouldn't fear it. Besides bein plain conterproductive it isn't right to fear nature. Embrace nature and life. Enjoy it while you have it.

Please, Voodoo. Just goddamn stop it, for christ's sake! There is a politics section of MacNN for all your rantings on politics and they are neither needed nor wanted here. The only thing that will happen is that you'll get this thread locked or moved.

And no, please don't reply to this. Just drop it. Don't be like that person that everyone loves to hate, who doesn't know when to stop or when to start.

Demonhood, nerd: Dudes, fellow skaters! You guys have to come to Munich this summer for at least a month. We have this big thing called "Blade Night" every monday, where they're like closing a bunch of streets for skaters and there are like 30,000 of us skating through the city for two to three hours.
It's a lot of fun, I do it as often as possible you should join me some day

Anyhow, on topic here's the most recent one of me and my girlfriend at some lake in Austria this summer:
"Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in one
pretty and well preserved piece, but to skid across the line broadside,
thoroughly used up, worn out, leaking oil, shouting GERONIMO!"

They do the skating thing once a week here in Zļæ½rich as well, which I get to see as they all come tottering past my window. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, there's similar skating events in Paris and some American cities do it as well (NY, Seattle?)

I wish I could skate.

Dunno about the other cities but heck it's a lot of fun to skate with 30,000 other young people.

Fair enough, but don't go around the world taking it out of every nation you can think of, just to get revenge. keep your big drama to yourselves, and look to your own gov. for who was behind it.

The rest of the world wouldn't really give a sh!t if it wasn't for CNN, FOX and the like constantly repeating how glorious the US is, and shoving down our throats how everyone is out to destroy the American way of lief because we are oh os jealous of it. Yeah right.

I felt leftout from this thread because I didn't have a picture at the time it was active. A friend sent me one so HERE YOU GO.

Is it not reasonable to anticipate that our understanding of the human mind would be aided greatly by knowing the purpose for which it was designed?

Took that yesterday, or rather had someone take it of me, the lighting was dark, so fixing it quickly left my face looking blotchy and stuff... it's a pretty awful photo... this is the one time it sucks being the one normally behind the camera. I have some crazy good photos of friends who normally look like crap in photos, sadly I have yet to get a really good photo of myself, aside from my student card one but my scanner's busted.

That's quite a lengthy stream-of-consciousness excuse/explanation there, but it fails to address the real question:

Did you select the wallpaper to match your clothing, or your clothing to match the wallpaper?

hahaha that shirt does match, that's my "sexy clothes" they're not really sexy, I just really like the look, deep mildly faded red t-shirt, with a green dress shirt and green cargos.

But actually my aunt recently decided to buy my mom these two lazy boy crazy nice chairs for like 5000 bucks, but they did not match our living room at all, so my mom and sister repainted the entire living room and dinning room to match the chairs. It's really sad but they're REALLY nice chairs.

But yeah I just noticed the whole shirt and wall colour thing.

The wife, 8-week old daughter, and myself in our family portraits for Christmas.



The photographer was a great guy and we had brought some formal clothes to change in to. He said he liked what we had on and gave us a great deal because he wanted to take some informal pictures. I am pleased with what he came up with.

Not sure, actually. It was an old airfield where U of T practices with their race car. There was also a BMW driving school being held on a different part of the airfield grounds, if that helps. Sorry.

I went away for a month and missed all the excitement. Too bad you guys keep chasing off all the girls, but oh, well.
Here I am in New Orleans about three years ago.



Here I am, playing at my friend's wedding, roughly the same time-frame. I bought the Hawaiian shirt in New Orleans, so I figure it to be at least a bit newer:

Boy, that dates me.

Heh. Yeah, he tours Germany every couple of years. There's a fairly solid blues community here, and he's recorded a couple of live albums here, as well.

And as for age...the organ in the pics (my lovely B-3) is five years my senior.
