Like the caption says, [me having a rare beer.](http://s82.photobucket.com/albums/j252/seanSDMB/?action=view&current=MeatOffshore.jpg) (I usually like them medium rare.)

I’ve never tried to link to a photo before, I hope it works, I think. [My wife and me](http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/timstaab/detail?.dir=/a2f9&.dnm=fc87.jpg&.src=ph) at a wedding last summer.

[wedding day pictures](http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/julia...841.jpg&.src=ph)

The same two I’ve posted before, plus a bonus picture of me in curlers and dire need of makeup.

Whoa. Check out **Crotalus**! (I said “whoa” to lots of other pictures in this thread too, except **Sampiro** ’s, which made me laugh out loud.)

Dung Beetle, when I click on your link, I get MY yahoo pictures page, with our Hawaii photos on it. But the link at the top of the bar clearly has your link in it. How very odd. What do other people see when they click on this link?

SURELY not my Hawaii photos?!

Yahoo is behaving very oddly recently…

I’ve just clicked again and got some random Chinese-looking man’s photos with him and two lap dogs and a temple. What the HELL is going on here???

I’m going to click again…

OK, while I was posting about Dung Beetle’s mystery link, r4nd0mNumb3rs jumped in and posted, so I really DID get a random man’s pictures, because I didn’t look before I clicked!

I nearly wrote in my above post that I was glad I’d stumbled across those pics anyway because he was a bit of alright… So I’ll say it now and slink off in shame!

(Still can’t understand why DB’s link came up with my Yahoo photo page though.)

And, r4nd0mNumb3rs, where were those pics taken??

The plane looks good, at least. 😃

That link, on the other hand, gives me the curlers picture and I can see the other two by clicking “previous.”

**Dung Beetle,** if you broke Yahoo, you really broke it good. 😃

So many pictures to save for stalking,…I mean reference. Yeah, for reference.

I don’t have pictures of me for the most part, but I have a couple, of course none that actually capture my raw animal magnetism.

Also, I’m usually the one TAKING the pictures.

But here’s a two-fer, [troublmakr and Mr Bus Guy at some sports bar in Tucson this past March](http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a39/keylimepie630/tucson%202006/troublmaktrandbusguy.jpg)

[Another one of the entire Bus Clan, also in Tucson](http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a39/keylimepie630/tucson%202006/pizzaparty.jpg)

Someone better profess instant lust for me, even if it’s not sincere, or I’m going home.

Isn’t it though? And, well, yeah - glasses + art + puppet arms + liking QC & steam engines = uber cute!

Aw, I’m sorry about that. I’m sure that you’ll be doin’ maximally awesome before too long. In the meantime, hang in there. If it helps, you can think “hey, there’s some boy that’s never met me halfway across the country who thinks I’m cute!” Could do good things for the ego without doing bad things to way it’s doin’.

Oh, and keep doing that art. Those puppet arms are frickin’ sweet!
