What a diverse bunch of people! Love it.

I do more lurking than posting but in case anyone would be wondering how a Czech baroque nut looks like --

But my specs are hipper and there's lots of grey in my beard. And I smile more.

Are you in the same line of business?

Funny you should ask . . . .

I used to make drugs (new product development for big pharma) . . . and there's a chance I'll be getting back into that line of work. Should I wear my pork pie hat to the interview?  ;)

Sergeant Rock

I've quit smoking since having this portrait taken, but other than that....  Oh, and I also no longer wear the bandolier....except on formal occasions.

the phone rings and somebody says,
"hey, they made a movie about
Mahler, you ought to go see it.
he was as f*cked-up as you are."
                               --Charles Bukowski, "Mahler"

Last summer in Boston right after dining with Karl.  We had a glorious time.



The lad is taller than me now and I have taken off about 30....but that is like taking a bottle of Windex to the Empire State Building. ;D

Will you even be promosted above Sergeant before you are promoted from Rock to Rocker?
Do what I must do, and let what must happen happen.

Yeah, Karl has sure grown quit a bit since then.

I was amazed that somehow, despite my C.I.A. and N.S.A. and T.7.S.O.C. past, a picture of me is on the Internet!

With your CIA past, I would have thought you'd be the one disguised as the black balloon!

That's what everyone thinks!  Hence the deception!

Note that Cato is holding something behind his back, and is looking at the camera to say "Keep watching."  Little does the guy about to present Cato with an award know that he is about to experience something very mysterious.  The girls look like they already know Cato is going to whack the guy, his agent, with the full 1,345,619 page, single spaced typescript of his as yet unfinished Magnum opus.   ;D

And that is just Volume I!  ;D

Hmmm... you look different than I imagined.

Unless... umm... well, my guess is the guy on the right. You could be the guy on the left, but the guy on the right is more how I pictured you.

Wrong! That means I would know, but I don't.  :P
