Hi all,

After reading about how much fun everyone had at the latest gathering of the MN reefers society, I'm Jealous!! Seems I've created an image of what I think you all look like sitting at your computers typing away your advice. I would love putting names and faces together. So, I said to my self.... "self, this is the Internet and anything is possible. Why not post photos for all to see" I also said... "self, if I asked every one to post a pic inside a thread, JohnL would have kittens because the thread would have huge graphics & load really slow" So why not post links to websites, webshots or other venues that we can post pics on. I'll go first with my cheesy little AOL homepage. I don't have a pic of me in my reef site. This should be fun!!!

Hey LORI

I went to your page but half of the pictures wouldn't load Almost if they've been removed or something

Anyway
If you got your "ugly shields" on, click here and hopefully you'll live

This was minutes after I found out I was kicked out of the office I'm in; and had to take my ten gallon desk tank home...My buddy said something like, "Smile Handsome" and I was thinking what in the world would someone want to smile about, when "FLASH" and the above pic was created

HEY!
What happened to the pic where you were staring into the tank...You had that look on your face that we get when we're "inside" with our animals!...That was one of the neatest pics of a reefer I've ever seen, and I couldn't find it on your site{along with other absences}

Have fun guys!

Lori, you don't look old enough to have kids of that age. I do have many pics of other members, Niven, shred5, DD, Philstone, C-water, Northern Reef, Dwayne, and Dr. Ron. I will not post them unless they give me the thumbs up. eric

This is too cool!!!!
I'm lovin' every minute of this!

John,
The pic loads now!! Looks like the pic with the Mrs might have been taken after a few of those brews. Looks like your having a blast.

Jim,
Yes, I kind of abandoned that AOL site. I don't even have that man anymore. I need to get in there and do so housekeepping. The easy designer program that I used to build it is so slow and lame. (so is my computer) Go to the webshots link (friends and family) there are a bunch of pics in there. I'm not sure where the pic of me staring into the tank is, but I should at least upload that to webshots. I fall into that gaze almost every evening, next best thing to hopping into the tank with my reefs. No need for "ugly shields" in viewing your pic... your a handsome guy!!

Q,
No, didn't blow the image... but I was looking forward to orange hair and a red nose Who are the others in the picture... any RC'ers. I've seen that pic in another thread i think.

Eric,
What a little QT!! And a BIG christmas present for you... I assure you that I am old enough to have a 20 & 16 year old!

Where are all the girls?? Where is fishwife & flame angle? I know the women in this hobby are few in numbers, they don't know what they are missing!!

Grafxguy - If you got pics of me, post away. I can always use a good laugh.

He he, this is so much fun!

I can actually picture Larry with a ponytail and displaying a peace sign.

I can even go 60's see: here


Bill,
Your daughter is beautiful!

Flame,
You go girl!!! You're a pretty lady. Do you have water in that glass box yet? I'm getting pretty excited for you.

Larry,
On my gosh!! That is not at all what I thought Dr Ron would look like. I had him pictured as a tall, dark and handsome "Clark Kent" look alike. He looks like a sweet, gentle soul.

Where the heck is JohnL... cough up a pic Uncle John!!!

I hope I get to meet you all some day soon!

Fun thread Lori! Be careful this pic is not for the faint hearted or or easily frightened. Me tearing into a XMAS package! It wasn't the 500gal tank of my dreams btw. I guess that will have to wait...
