Well, Rocky, all I can say is: never underestimate the magical glow borne of a really good local microbrew-- no matter which party is on which side of the lens.

So Ex, where in the Italian countryside are you in this pic? Looks amazing!

Thanks, Cobie. It's in a tiny village near the "spur" of the "boot" called Ripalimosani.

A few years back I did some geneological research on my paternal lineage and found that this village of about 2000 people is where my great-grandfather emigrated from. I told my dad that if I ever got the chance I would return there to see our roots.

Well, I got the chance, and was astounded to find a place basically untouched by time. People live there like they have for hundreds of years, farming olives and pomegranates. The town itself is very hard to get around in as it's a set of steeply stacked stone buildings connected by precarious stairwells:



Although I didn't find anyone who remembered my specific line (it's been 100 years after all), I did get to share a drink with several people in a cafe who shared my last name, and saw my great-great uncle's name on a WWI memorial plaque on the church.

It was a fantastic experience, and one well off the beaten "tourist track",

Now *that* is the kind of thing I'd love to do on vacation (it makes me really want to go to Ireland, where most of my ancestors are from). Very cool you were able to find something unique to do that could give you a feel for something most people normally dont' get to see!

Okay, if my wife has picks on facebook, can they show up here or will they just be links?

Rick, I just tried to bring or to link a photo from my facebook account. I could not do it.


The way to go is to get a free photobucket account, upload your photos to there, then you can post them here.

Thanks Quis. I got your email, by the way. If i didn't respond, sorry, and...I'm an ass. Wasn't intentional. If i did, never mind.

So, I don't know if I've mentioned to everyone that I was laid off from my "real" job (Catering Sales Manager). Since I've had new time on my hands, I've started doing fun stuff like audition for music shows, etc, and found myself needing a headshot.

So, I used an existing photo and touched it up.

CHEESE!

Here's another HIGHLY touched up picture of myself I used for the Holo Model 1st Anniversary. Should I change my name to Kid Narcissist?

Here's the Holo Model picture before it was touched up....

Okay, that's enough of my face!

I lied! Here I am again.... Dean Londo!

This is a very, very young Dean. I don't know why I'm being so melancholy. Maybe I'm pretending I'm a Calvin Klein model or something. Anyway, I thought it'd work for a picture of Colossal Boy, realizing that he'd never get Violet...

.... and here we see Dean Morgna clubbing it on Metropolis' Restaurant Row!

I know this picture is fake. Brainiac 5 would never go out partying with Sun Boy.

Maybe that's a different Coluan... great pics, Dean.

And great pics all around. The rare blue-haired Rhino, what a find. Ancient Italian villages, ancestral home of the Nihils. Retro Blockades - scary times, our youth! And such a cute pet Ceej. More!

Ask and ye shall recieve



I think Vee took this picture, which is why he is not in it.

My, my, Pov-- what hairy legs you have!

"The better to stay pantsless with, my dear!"

Awww...

(BTW, I forgot to mention earlier that I love Cali's latest tattoo. Every time I see somebody on the bus or wherever with a tattoo, I think of it now. Really.)

OK, playing "Name that Legion Worlder", I think I came up with:

Pov, Faraway Lad, you (Quis), ???, Cobalt Kid, Fat Cramer, Abin, ???, and Kent.

Who are my two ???'s ?

I know. I know. But I don't think were supposed to tell about the first ???.

The second is Loser Lad.

Nice leg, Pov. I was obviously sitting on the wrong side of the table.

You can see me trying me darndest to close my eyes until Pov's leg was once more covered up! I'm much too innocent for that sort of sordid thing!

I like that FC deliberately showed up in Projectra's original color scheme.

Actually, that was from dinner on Sunday. Vee was already on his way home by then. I think STU was behind the camera there.
