So the people who interviewed me told the employment agency they "hadn't found exactly what they were looking for." I guess they weren't looking for an Emmy Award winning artist with years of top evaluation scores from all of his employers. Go figure.
Just because our life wasn't exciting enough - the landlord sold the house we rent. We started checking out different places. This included one that we drove out to see only to discover the backyard was - literally - a junkyard. The rent was kind of cheap but paying for the tetanus shots is what kills ya. Luckily Theresa's cousin came through and is letting us rent a place he owns. The only down side is that to make it all work we have to move this weekend. Hey, let's pack up the entire house and move in a week's time. At least this will let us save some money while I continue the job-hunting process.
With the move and all I will be off the web for a week or two. So I leave you with this little challenge - the above picture is of one of you bums. Can you guess who and where the picture was taken? The when is over twenty years ago - I'll give you that much.

Its a bit tricky with som much back-light from the sun... - I think its shot of Kevin pretending he can fish in the gulf of Mexico. I am relying on the outline of the hair and the square shoulders.
No, I think it is John Egan as the person seems to be sporting a beard based on the shadow on the right side of the face. ALthough the comment regarding my fishing is very amusing

That is, in fact, Kevin Paisley from a day of fishing off of Black Island Beach. The backlighting was me trying to be artistic. The overall photo quality is from the crappy 110 camera I was using. I have some great blurry snapshot memories from that little camera.
And don't be trying to tell us that you had no beard, Kevin. It might have just been a little three month time period, but I have the photographic proof...packed up in one of these damn boxes. Didn't all of us grow a beard that first summer after graduation to celebrate our new-found facial freedom?
Oh, and I remember Kevin catching a toad fish one time. He starts ragging on it as being one of the ugliest fish known to man. He is so disgusted that he whips his pole around and smacks the toad fish into the ground. On impact, his hook, WITH THE BAIT STILL ON IT, pops out of the fish's mouth. Kevin gets the most self-satisfied grin on his face, turns back to the water and calmly casts the bait right back in.
I knew it was Kevin because of the short sleeve button down collar dress shirt he is wearing. It's a no brainer.
I wrote Crawdaddy, but the website looks like it wasn't updated since 2003. So it might be a dead end. I am seriously wondering if Crawdaddy has left this place and moved on to the next one.
Short sleeve button-down collar shirt? What are you talking about? How can you see this? I agree, it is likely me, and a pretty good pic Mark. But Kenrick are you kidding me? Can you tell what time it is on my wristwatch? Or the tension strength of my fishing line? May be I just need new glasses. THis Crawford thing is getting a little weird, that pic certainly looks like him. I hope he is doing well. Keep the photos coming boys. No escaping our roots. And yes, I think we all grew our share of beards. I just didn't think mine would show up on camera.
