Visual Thread - Post a Picture of Yourself

I saw this in another forum. So we can see who we are speaking to behind the screenname.

My wife and I when I retired from the military:

A year ago a month after my near death motorcycle accident (and two wiener dogs):

P.S. Glad you recouped

Since coronavirus, kind of like this.

In the before times, the long-long-a-go:

Is that a Dingo? I didn't realise they were called Dingoes in the US (a Dingo is a native Australian dog so I assumed it was an Aussie name).

They are dachshunds, a German breed.

Indeed, they are...

Yup, it's a tiny little ride behind/walk behind excavator/loader/whatever you need it to be branded as "Dingo". I have no idea why the USA maker chose that name. I was augering dozens of holes in a field to emplace special effects simulating artillery shells exploding in a USA civil war reenactment.

Wow! Which battle were you reenacting?

I have used a Dingo for fixing MTB trails. Didn't even think thatbeen it may not have been an Aussie braneded product.

Sorry didn't realize you were referring to the escavator. @Nemo

It was several battles over a couple of days, none of them really historically accurate. An event for grownups to "play Army" with some VERY elaborate and expensive props... That house in the background is a big theater prop, it can shift parts, flip exterior walls to other side with different looks, grow or lose porches to change appearances.

At the end of the last day, Lee surrendered to Grant, Grant stole the kitchen chair he had been sitting in and rode off into the sunset after telling the home owner he could sod off since he didn't have any armies.

I made smoke, blew non lethal debris into the air (debris mortars, peat moss, landscaper's bark mulch, agricultural powdered limestone, black powder lifting charges) and generally provided "atmosphere" without injuring/killing anyone. Typical SFX gig except no burning liquid fuels, thank the gods.

This is my ugly mug. Who knows what I was talking about at that moment this weekend but it looks like I was trying to get a point across

I am completely using this on my social media. Thanks, lol
I actually think I was debating with some genius at this point who thought he knew everything about Japanese knives. Was trying to tell me I couldn't call something honyaki if it wasn't water quenched. I tried to explain what abura honyaki was and that I use an engineered fast quenching oil called Parks-50. I quickly moved along to another patron with real questions

Rule #1, never act like you’re the smartest person in the room.

Unless you're a school teacher. Can't show any weakness in front of those little animals.
