Ok this is what happens when I rely on short term memory. Sorry, but the instructions for posting were given by cheerleader. My apologies to both cheer and nenu. I hope you both forgive me.
As penetenice ( boy could I use spellcheck here) here is a picture of me taken about a month after my diagnosis.
Boy I think Greece must be on my list to visit - isn't it stunning?
And Jack - your pic is gorgeous - how did you get Venus - was it a very fancy camera? Also agree with Nenu - you have a lovely warm face, very friendly and calming! Nice to see the guy who enjoyed the Rooibos!
Also agree with AC - it is so great to see pics of everyone and their homelands - I have been to the States a few times, but only LA, New Orleans (before Katrina), New York, and Houston! There is a lot more to see....

Thank you Nenu and Ally.
Photography is one of my hobbies. I shot that picture in the winter of 2000-2001 using an old Nikon F3 and Fuji color film. Venus is really bright when it is in the early morning sky like it was that day. I'v switched to digital now though and normally use a Nikon D70s.
Here is a couple more pictures. One of me pursuing that hobby (no beard, which is how I look most of the time it had just been kinda hard to shave right after the flareup) and one of what I was shooting.
I'd love to see more pics from everyone.

This is Blue-eyed Grass. It's a very common wildflower here in the SE US. It's actually a member of the iris family and not really a grass. _________________ RRMS since 01/07.
I also kinda liked the beard, though I am not usually too fond of them generally - maybe it is just because we could see your face more clearly in the beard pic! The blue grass is real pretty - I shall try to post a pic of some of our flora (I also like photography, but just to dabble) at the end of this post.
Shannon - your boy is beautiful, you must be so proud of him - it is thrilling, amazing, and a little bewildering to see them grow - my youngest just had his 5th birthday too, and my eldest had his 7th just the other day!

Great b-day pics Artifishual. Being a geologist I really like the Jurassic Park theme with the dinosaurs and volcano. Good job on the healthy snacks also.
Nenu and Ally, thanks for the kind words. I shaved the beard the first day of spring, to hot when it gets warm but it will be back this fall.
Ally, your pics are great, please post more. SA looks like a very beautiful place.
Here are a couple more from my backyard.

Native azalea, smells so sweet it scents the whole back yard.
Jack - Love the owl pic especially - you are a good photographer & your backyard looks like just the kind of place I would like to live in! _________________ Ali

OK,
I posted this once before, but I can never find the thread because I dind't post it here. So I found my photobucket password and am putting this PIC in the PIC thread! More to come soon. [/img]. I need to remember to bring my camera home from work occasionally. It's going in my car the second I'm done with it now that I have my brand new VIP (as I like to call it) parking right outside my office. I was walking about 200 yards from the car to the office and got sick of wanting to go home right after I got there _________________ "When you're in jail, a good friend will be trying to bail you out.
