At first I thought I'd post a serious pic then I had a look through the collection of photo's I had and thought well nobody else has so I posted this 1.

It was about 4:30 in the morning I had been up doing study for exams coming up and my friends 1 2 and 3 jimmy cans were on the table to help make study more fun hence the funny colored tongue and the wacked out look .

I've also got another photo of me in the gallery i've had it there a while it's a bit more serious ;-).

OK, my cover is now blown. And, yes the hat is worn for a reason. It's cold here and there isn't as much "insulation" on top as there used to be. My sister took this pic while I was adjusting valves today.

Come on now Alan, no sidestepping by imitating a movie star.

(I suppose you could have tried passing yourself off as a double for Clint Eastwood, Richard Gere or even Julia Roberts or Kylie Minogue).

So, come on, CONFESS !!!!!!!!!

I always wear a hat when I'm out in the hot Queensland sun mate. There's not a great deal up top to protect the old cranium.

Rick.

Kylie. Now there's a thought. A very nice thought.

OK - here's a rare shot of me. Usually I avoid cameras, mirrors and bright sunlight:

Now, I could be wrong (again) but I *think* Alan was refering to Col. Walter E. Kurtz in the movie Apocalypse Now. The charector was played by Marlon Brando. Col Kurtz was responsible for many "Heads on Poles" discovered by the Riverboat crew taking Capt. Benjamin L. Willard (Martin Sheen) on his mission.

Did I do better this time, Alan?

Perfect this time Carl!

Klink was funny, but I think Victor's mugshot has 'something of the night' about it - so its got to be Walter Kurtz. Very scary.

Victor, I had a very different image of you in my head. Now I can't imagine you in a Fairlady Roadster!

Lots of good quotes in that movie. Screenwriter was Michael Herr ( of "Dispatches" fame ) and it was loosely based on 'Heart Of Darkness" by Conrad. All very dark.

Gavin, better get off the Vegemite before it's too late!

And where is Mr. Tanny's photo??

Wow, Conrad and Vegemite in the same thread. Some depth here.

Slightly above average movie. Well below average book.

Vegemite will either kill you or can single-sourcedly support life on several planets.

Gav, you need an art consultant.

Alan, shouldn't you be sitting on a phone book or something?

"Charlie don't Surf!" :cross-eye

Well I know I don't post as much as a lot of the other guys here, but regardless here's the one good pic I have of myself. And it is a joke by the way, I don't really plan on taking that path.

Conrad?? Conrad Who? Did I miss something?

:cheeky: were you offering Alan one of your spare phone books, Steve?

( just pulling your leg, OK?)
