RL, you look exactly like my college roommate. Spitting image, except for the lawyer part. LOL.

technically, RL only had to post 1/2 a picture. but we are all benefited from the whole thing (even if he does have cracked ideas about health care )

Solid,

You seem to be a smart person. Don't push your luck. People are going to start wondering about you, asking for pictures of men.

A great lesson

This was a great thread, and thank you, TR.

And, of course, thank you to all the men in the picture.

You may have posted the photo as an exercise for the SF candidates, with all of us 'guests' joining in, but I keep looking at the number of 'hits' this thread has had ! Great teaching method ! (Yes, I know that between RL and Saca we can account for approx. 1000 of those hits ! LOL)

Another example of why PS.com is in a league of its own as a terrific site.

Sorry for my intrusion.

That's Mr Joe Galloway. I recognise him from the We Were Soldiers DVD documentary.

CPTAUSRET Sir, those are great photos. If I remember correctly, I remember seeing a photo of you with a beer(?) on the 101st Avn website.

No intrusion, Anakin I was looking for comments. And yes indeed you saw me with a LARGE beer on the 101st AVN website, one I was holding with my left hand cause my right arm wasn't fully functional due to a couple of gsw's to it:

That's you with your hands in your pockets.

Concur, you are on the right, do not know the promotee.

Looks like Falstaff on the table, unless I miss my guess, haven't seen those for a long time, looks like maybe a Carling along with it.
