summitar Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 For Stuart Richardson, What does a typical Scot look like. My father was born near Motherwell, very tall with blue eyes. I am 6 ft 5 inches. I always assumed that Scots have a lot of Viking blood in their veins. Enjoyed a wonder visit to beautiful Edinburgh 20 years ago. Lang may lum reek! For Todd Peach, When you describe your town as a "bedroom" community, I wonder in you meant to say Brothel rather than Bothell. My town in Bellevue and I worked mostly at the DC on military aircraft, with the them of "bringing bombs and people together". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use my M2 the most, but lately I've been bitten by the LF bug... Consider it studying king-size bokeh :) I just wish I had more time to shoot.

al_kaplan1 Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Craig, here's one of our city councilmen's web sites. Second photo down, the black andwhite one, has me in the photo and my name on the credit. No, I don't have a photo handy with a big "Welcome to Miami" sign next to my smiling face. http://www.scott-galvin.com/pictures.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikal_grass Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Stephen, You are correct. It is fora. Stuart Richardson, Can you please explain The Master and Margarita by Bulgakov to me? I read it many years ago in English, and am positive I missed something. Oh, I also spent 4 years in Chicago at the University of Chicago, some time in Israel, and took a few trips to Asia for business. Most of my shots are taken with an M6TTL .85 and a 50/1.4 'lux or an ancient Nikon 85/2.0. I love the Mamiya 7 II as well. Alas, it is in the shop until next week.

stuart_richardson Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Kerry -- I don't know...lot's of reddish brown hair, green/brown eyes, smallish nose? And I am sure you are right about them having a lot of viking blood, so perhaps that is it. I just didn't get the height gene... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart_richardson Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Mikal -- there's a cat, who is also the devil, and blisteringly difficult to read chapter on Jesus and the pontius pilate having a chat. My professor has a nice website on the book that will tell you everything that I don't remember. I read it about 7 years ago and I have forgotten most of it. I remember two things: 1.)I liked it a lot. 2.) Bulgakov's prose is the most difficult to read in Russian of any author i have yet encountered. Pushkin and Chekhov being the easiest, followed by Chernyshevsky, Dostoevsky, Tolstoy and Belyi and so forth. But anyway, the professor's site is good. <a href=<"http://cr.middlebury.edu/public/russian/Bulgakov/ public_html/"> Master i Margarita</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

summitar Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Al Kaplan, You seem to have gone for all the gusto, and have had a great life. I admire you for it. Keep on truckin, Babe. I spent 46 years of my life sucking up to either the Air Force and/or Boeing and now realize I could have done better. Conformity sucks! I wish I had been more daring.

david_doyle Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 I'll use station call letters to desribe my journey: WCCO -> KGTV -> KTLA -> KGTV -> WVLD -> KGTV And no I'm not in the B'cast biz though I've wished I'd been more non-conformist (good point Kerry) in my life. Had the chance once but was a bit young to set out on my own... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
