I wanted to add my avatar

Padronius – Old Man Smoking Pipe

BTW, I couldn't remember the site I got the avatar, so when I did a search I used "Old Man Smoking Pipe" and Kevin Godbee showed up before my avatar.....just saying

Ha, awesome. We used to have a mod named Lawrence, who would show up as the first link if you Googled 'mustachio'd chili head'.
I didn't Google for years, which was good, until I met some of the Dallas/Ft. Worth pipers, and one posted pics. Now I show up as one of the aliases for a registered sex offender that spent time in prison for raping a child. He lives a few miles from my parents. I'm not happy about that.

I'm a character on Law and Order, a bespoke shoemaker in England, teach in at least one university from every state, and have been arrested for just about any crime imaginable according to my google search. The one thing that never shows up is me.

I told you all this looked like an infinity project and it seems I was right. I have pages worth from the Art Gallery of New South Wales in Australia that I will be adding over the next few days. I still love poring over the ones we already have. In most of them you can find something different and wonderful each time.

It took me a while on that first one to figure out the man and the woman weren't the "wayside friends."

In the last one it's sad to note that the dress, the pipe, and a kid in suspenders wouldn't be the most passe' things in that photo. An actual print newspaper is the old fogie.

Ed, just FYI, archy will be gone for a month: backpacking with no internet access - she's not ignoring us.
