[Here](http://new.photos.yahoo.com/largo64/album/576460762396035212/photo/294928804307326761/1) I am recently with more chins than a Chinese phonebook. Funny thing is, I gained that weight after taking a job as a tourguide at the Winchester Mystery House, where I walk up and down stairs in a 160-room mansion up to five times a day. And it isn’t muscle mass. Well, table muscle, maybe. Never could control my apetite. [/QUOTE] Holy crap, were you working there in late 2005?

I keep thinking I’m too new here for anyone to give a crap what I look like, but then I think that it’s not fair to ogle everyone’s else’s picture without subjecting myself to the same scrutiny. So, inspired by **TokyoPlayer** , [here’s](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/199/444937483_a91b15fed9.jpg) a pic of me enthralling the crowd at our wedding reception. (Yes, I’m a lucky man.) And [here](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/100/297063335_1040932329.jpg?v=0) is a pic of me holding a rib and wearing a bib: And [here](http://farm1.static.flickr.com/55/134489581_eceadd6707.jpg) is a pic of me (looking stupid), my wife (looking pretty, but she would kill me if she knew I posted a pic in which she has a band-aid on her chin), and our doggie (looking furry). ---

The mutiple costume changes were a pain but they turned out very well. Unfortunately I don’t have any of them electronically or any of the professional ones from the wedding. However, since I’m talking about it here’s some pictures friends took at the wedding. My wife ended up wearing three outfits. To join in I threw on one of those Mandarin jackets later on.

[QUOTE=Least Original User Name Ever] So what, are you more a crocus or lilly girl? [/QUOTE] I really don’t know much about flowers, other than some are pretty. Lillies are nice, I guess. I really like carnations though, maybe because everyone thinks they’re boring. Don’t get as much love as roses. And they’re interesting-looking. But I did think roses make nice epaulettes, what with the military connotations of epaulettes and the femininity of the roses. ---

It’s the airbrushing which makes the difference with reality! :o > [@Surly Chick](#): > > Wow, I love that picture of your wife lying down in the red dress! You had a very imaginative photographer. The photographer was really, really good. It was an all day thing, starting at 8:00 am for makeup and finishing at 6:00 pm. He took over 150 photos and trying to decide which ones to keep was hard. My favorate is [this one](http://www.flickr.com/photos/90901585@N00/348767972/in/set-72157594464563999/) although [this one](http://www.flickr.com/photos/90901585@N00/348768203/in/set-72157594464563999/) is a close second. I had a great time, and really got into it. I came up with about a third of the poses which we kept, including all that involved picking her up. What a fun experience.
