    I think it should be as close to the original format as possible, although I don’t see harm in resizing it. Anyone else want to chime in?

    I ended up with only one entry for this one. I realized that other people would be doing everything on the famous images continuum. Images I considered and rejected:

    Eddie Adams’ Vietnamese general shooting the VC
    Marylin Monroe
    Times Square Kiss
    Loose Lips sink Ships
    Jack and Rose on the Bow of Titanic (using a lifeboat)

    I actually expect to see most of these from other Farkers, which is one reason I rejected them. I didn’t even consider using toys, I wanted to use live people. As it turned out, I ran out of time, and then the weather declined to cooperate this afternoon. C’est la Vie.

    *I* have grandkids. 11 of them if you count by marriage, 8 if you count blood.

    and you look like a grandfather, in a I’ve lived long enough to earn it kind of way.

    I’m looking forward to those days, I just don’t want my kids to get me there prematurely.

    I’m only 55 🙂 I went gray and then bald relatively early. The only trouble it’s ever caused me is that if I let my hair and beard get long (as I tend to do in the winter), little girls of about 6 or 7 seen to start believing that I’m Santa Claus and will drag their parents over to me. It can get embarrassing at times.

    I had no ideas for this contest until yesterday. On the way home tonight I heard a song that gave me another idea. So I came home and dug out my grandsons Disney figurines and went to work…

    You have Grandkids??

    I guess I never really thought about our relative ages on here.

    Next summer, I’m combing garage sales for Fisher Price characters/GI Joes, etc.

    Oh noes!!!!

    You can build a quad core for pretty cheap- just go to Fry’s and pick up everything u need in one trip. That’s what I did to build my (ridiculously underutilized) file server.

    …and I went to look at my previous entries, and … nothing. Here’s hoping it’s temporary.

    We’re on I-80, but about 500 miles past your destination.

    If you want a good beer, try the Polygamy Porter. the brewpub is in Park City, but they serve it in SLC proper too.

    The motto is “Why have just one”, or alternately, “Take some home to the wives”. Good stuff.

    Funny 🙂

    Unfortunately, I don’t drink beer :/

    I’m heading for Salt Lake City this week. Anyone along I-80? My cell # is in my profile, and I welcome calls while on the road.
