My visage makes children cry and hide their faces in their mothers skirts. Dogs growl, cats run up trees and innocent young waifs faint.

You see my picture every time I post, lol. My avatar is myself riding Caramel, my endurance horse.
Here is what I look like dressed for my office job during contract negotiations...
...and this is what I look like at home on the ranch doing chores.
I'm about 12 lbs. lighter than when these pictures were taken, which I attribute to some of my change in diet as well as spending less time in front of a computer. I am now the same weight as I have been most of my life as I have always been into a lot of physical outdoor activity. The internet was a bit of a distraction for a while but I think we have moved beyond that now.
I'm reasonably certain that I could manage not to gasp if I have a couple of shooters of Tequila first...
You can also upload to the album on your profile page and then open the photo, copy the address and post it using the usual method. I use Picasa on-line web album because otherwise I would run out of allotted space too quickly at the forum. Picasa is very generous in their space allowance.
My photo would make people think: "That guy is an admin here?"
There's a picture of me here:

You all can just see me live in action on ESPN last week! (Not making a very pleasant face I might add...bright sun that day, lol)
Go to 46:30 on the video and I'm the guy on the bottom left with the shirt that says "True Gold...."

A very interesting profile and personal philosophy billvon.
In my estimation, you are a druid, with such philosophy, whether you acknowledge same or not.
Thank you for sharing.What is your life philosophy?
Do whatever you want; don’t hurt anyone else in the process.
Why would an admin have confidence issues regarding what other people think?My photo would make people think: "That guy is an admin here?"
Well, thank you for this but NO WAY am I burning off a bunch of band width to look at you. You can make it easier than this....
I think it's going to work this time!

Picture from a year ago, while I was out fishing with a friend.
Sexy bathroom selfies! Just took this one...
Thanks for bringing some youth to accompany me
That would be me taken in June.
Thank you - I think - I've never been called a druid before . . .
Okay MacGyver. I gave you a 'like' for the effort made but I do not feel obligated to post pictures that reveal more than my character, lol...
Purse minder.... That is a sign of high trust. A woman does not entrust her purse to just anyone...
That's a great picture...and I mean this in the most respectfully way...but you have a great rack!
LOL...It's a good designation. Although they had a written language, the druids kept an oral history tradition and believed in teaching and learning through experience. 'Do no harm unto others' was one of their teachings as I understand. It was that which leapt off the page to me when reading your profile.Thank you - I think - I've never been called a druid before . . .
Except when they wanted to.
Recent evidence that Druids possibly committed cannibalism and ritual human sacrifice—perhaps on a massive scale—add weight to ancient Roman accounts of Druidic savagery, archaeologists say.
Happy eating, Billvon!
Damn I spit out my mouthful of water when I read that!! Howling!! I'll take it in the spirit it was meant. *laughing* Thanks, I think!That's a great picture...and I mean this in the most respectfully way...but you have a great rack!
An interesting article, Dywyddyr, yet history is ever written by the victors and seldom correlates with the observations of those who may have lived through said period in time. I have no way of knowing, for a fact, what activities the ancient druids may have engaged in, but in modern times cannibalism has fallen out of favor.Except when they wanted to.

The 'ritual human sacrifice' is on-going as evidenced by the sufferings visited upon the citizenry by their duly elected government, whom I would not characterize as druids.
It's ok She....to me...a sexy picture of you would be wearing a pony tail feeding the horses.Okay MacGyver. I gave you a 'like' for the effort made but I do not feel obligated to post pictures that reveal more than my character, lol...

Cool Hand Luke and his mom approves of this post:
Still clinging to the generations-old importance of Nationality........FWIW to anyone, "Novak" is a very common Czech name, there were many families bearing it in our community when I was a kid. The "von" might imply German, which when used before a name, means "from". jocular

So it seems that I am not the only one who has encoutered difficulties whilst trying to upload pictures.
I will try to post a picture of myself via copy-pasting a Dropbox link when I get home.

I liked your Romulan hiarcut, that was interesting and unique but this one is fine too.
Daughter and son were just there in Munich! I SHARED that beer with my daughter.!! I can drink champagne....I cannot drink beer. I'd be on my hiney.That beer's nearly as big as you are! Don't order a Maß at Oktoberfest -- you'd drown in it!

@ BABEI was on Honolulu last year and then helicoptered to Maui then flew to the big island to see my friend who lives near Hilo. I enjoyed Hawaii better than Fiji in some ways because it has more things to do. Anyone wanting to go to Fiji should think about Hawaii before doing so for you'll enjoy yourself more there for less flying money. I stayed at the Queen Kapiolani Hotel and had a buffet breakfast daily for just 5.00. It is only 1 block from Wikiki Beach which is very nice and plenty of room to enjoy yourself. The zoo is also right next to the hotel .love it!! What Island!!

I don't know if you like botanical gardens, but there is one little known, kind of that is fantastic. If you get back to BI and I am here and free, let me know. I'll take you there. It is AWESOME! Oh and the lava pool in Pahoa? South Point? Place of Refuge? Yes there is much to do on this island.
@ John GaltI'm the third person on the left side in the bottom half of the picture on the beach sitting next to the women in the bikini!Is that you in the foreground, or are you one of the people on the beach?

Thank you for the invitation, I'll keep it in mind however I usually try not to go back to where I've already been for I enjoy the adventure of going to new and exciting places. I'm almost ready to travel to Turkey, Greece and Italy in a few weeks so that's my next adventure. Where you live sounds truly beautiful as I have been to the Hilo area and saw all of the flora and fauna.I don't know if you like botanical gardens, but there is one little known, kind of that is fantastic.

I love Italy....where are you going? I haven't been to Greece. On my bucket list. and Turkey...I think my daughter was there....you should also consider Slovenia and Dubrovnik. Dubrovnik is breathtaking....and you don't worry so much about getting robbed as you do in Greece. Not kidding about Greece.
When I travel I always end up in weird places. The "boob" pic was taken at national park (margalla something or other) in Islamabad. But while I was in Pakistan, I lived in Rawalpindi, visited Lahore, Abbotabad (where bin douche bag was hiding out), Sialkot,Gujranwala and a few villages that I cannot remember the names of.
When I visited UK. My destination was Middlesbrough, but landed and messed around in Manchester for a few hours (learning to drive on the left) then drove from there to Middlesbrough, getting lost in Bradford (aka Bradistan) after dark and taking up shelter in a stranger's home who more or less locked me in their attic storage closet, where they happened to be storing a small bed, in order to keep me safe from either the son or the father of the household. I am not sure, they didn't speak any English except for their son.
And since you liked it....
Normally, I don't like losing anonymity on the internet. It means claiming far more responsibility for my actions than I like to accept. ...but since I like you guys...
Me on Mt. Hood heading for the backcountry. I really miss Oregon:
Saving a snake from an erosion control mat on a stormwater inspection of the I-69 South project. I hate the project and almost everything about it, but at least I saved a rat snake (compared to the hundreds of skeletons in the mats which is kind of depressing).
Me riding Old Dan (love love love horses):

It's Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank (aka, The Mads) from Mystery Science Theater 3000, my favorite show of all time.
is that a newer version of the show? I remember MST having a guy with two robots that sat in front of a movie screen as it played with the volume down and they would ad lib what they felt the actors were saying based on what they could see. it was hilarious.It's Dr. Forrester and TV's Frank (aka, The Mads) from Mystery Science Theater 3000, my favorite show of all time.
@ BABERome , Civitavecchia, Florence and MilanI love Italy....where are you going?
I'd like to thank those members who have contributed to this thread. Now at least I can vision who I'm talking to.
I know about Greece but I'm always careful whenever I travel but thank you for the heads up. I do not carry much cash but only credit cards that will get me by. As yet in my travels I've not been approached by anyone that tried to either rob me or hurt me. Seeing as how I'm going on a cruise my ship will be my main place where I dine daily for free.

Lynx mentioned as a joke about the idea of posting clips of us singing, but I would prefer just audio clips of members reading one of their written posts or writing a new one and reading it in the tone it is intended to be heard. mainly because I love accents and would love to hear what some of you sound like when you talk.I always hear about this show and intend to get a hold of it, but then my scatterbrain acts up and I completely forget about it.

There were some cast changes, but the guy in my pic are The Mads. They subjected Joel, Crow, and Tom Servo (the latter two being robots) to horrible movies in the name of science. Mad science. Later, they also did this to Mike, who replaced Joel. Eventually, both The Mads left the show and were replaced by Ms. Forrester (Dr. Forrester's equally mad mother) and her assistants Bobo (a talking ape) and Brain Guy (a form of not-so-higher life).is that a newer version of the show?

You can see some episodes on YouTube, but I recommend buying the Shout Factory DVDs if you're interested. They have some great special features where they actually talk about the movie in the episode as well. Some of the movies, bad though they are, have pretty interesting stories behind them.I always hear about this show and intend to get a hold of it, but then my scatterbrain acts up and I completely forget about it.

Being a bit of a B-moviephile, I get a big kick out of them.
Anyways, back to our feature presentation.
I remember occasionally seeing it at my great-grandmother's house when I was little. I lived in a rural area and didn't have access to cable but my granny lived in town and did. But she was a baptist fundy and strictly monitored my viewing. But when she dozed off I would get short shots of watching comedy central. Boy did she have a meltdown when she caught me watching Eddie Murphy raw... how dare I allow a foul mouthed colored boy grace the same screen as her beloved Jimmy Swaggert... lol.There were some cast changes, but the guy in my pic are The Mads.

But I guess as far as MST was concerned I never noticed any story line or skits ( i just looked up the show on wiki) I only remember the scenes of them in the theater. I was too little then to take notice of anything more complex while constantly looking over my shoulder for my granny to come after me with a fly swatter lol.
edit: well this was a bit disturbing but if you scroll from the top of the screen really fast some of the images blur together and apparently shlunka's thumb augmented MacGyver's topless bathroom shot and it made MacGyver appear to be in a very UPbeat mood.
I would have had to use a wide angle lens for that.
I'm camera shy.
lol I'm sure shlunka would give you a thumbs up for that too .... jk shlunka
your ears aren't floppy at all...I'm camera shy.
Hello! C.E.S.
LOL, just a pony tail, eh?It's ok She....to me...a sexy picture of you would be wearing a pony tail feeding the horses.
Actually, my hair is long enough that worn appropriately, it could provide sufficient protective coverage and I have fed the horses on occasion wearing just my housecoat and boots, the cool air so refreshing after a hot shower and the moisture on the tall grass a delightful contrast as it brushed against my bare legs...
My horses can be trusted not to reveal the secrets of my wardrobe or lack thereof...
This one is Threebee (from the three 'B's in Bela's Black Betty) taken last year in her early stages of training. As I chatter so much about my horses, you may as well know what they look like also.
Is that an image of Neverfly on that horse's rear end?
Family legacy has it that it was from Austria, and 'von' was a title given to my great great grandfather, who was a glazier who did a few of the stained glass windows for cathedrals in Vienna.

I'm on the far left, had a FUN. time at a FUN. concert.
You have no idea of how challenging it was to get the dapples to grow in such pixelated fashion....
Getting the mare to stand in the sunlight with that side facing for the appropriate number of hours per day for 6 weeks, 6 hours and 6 minutes precisely to activate the photosensitive nutrients in the proprietary feed mix, now that was a real ordeal, lol.
That's quite a trade, I've been to Europe and have seen many fine works by craftsmen like him.Family legacy has it that it was from Austria, and 'von' was a title given to my great great grandfather, who was a glazier who did a few of the stained glass windows for cathedrals in Vienna.

No, I am afraid I do not spot the dears face.
I figure I should join in the fun. but the site is rejecting my pictures.
It was changed somehow to a horses hear, it is in the dark area as a lighter image.

Have you tried to upload your picture to another site (e.g. Dropbox, TinyPic, etc.)?
You should be able to copy-paste the URL, which allows you to post the picture (at least, that is how I did it).

I still do not see anything. Perhaps I do not have the necessary fantasy.
Apparently this website has the good sense to reject my photo outright. What am I doing wrong? I go through the upload sequence, but it doesn't appear in my post or in the Manage Attachments popup.
Try instead to upload it to Google+, dropbox, or something as mentioned above. Perhaps it is size? But the url post should work.
This is about 5 yeas old. How odd, I just realized I have no recent picture.
Must've hit puberty awfully early...This is about 5 yeas old. How odd, I just realized I have no recent picture.
There is a horse face image. I noticed it earlier. The nose starts near the crotch and angles upwards towards the left. Light area in a darker patch. This horse carries a picture of itself.It was changed somehow to a horses head, it is in the dark area as a lighter image.
No, I am afraid I do not spot the dears face.
I've seen your pic on another site. maybe you can link to it. It's a pretty "OK" website.
Or email me the pic to me, and I'll post it on my dropbox account...just let me know, and Ill pm you the email address
I use Photobucket. Free and easy.
Upload it on imgur, copy the link of your imgur picture. Then come back here and try again, but select "From URL", paste the link, make sure to uncheck "retrieve remote file and reference locally".
I used to use photobucket...but I like dropbox much better. It puts a folder on your hard drive, and anything you put in that folder automatically gets uploaded to your cloud account. With photobucket, you are limited to pictures...with dropbox, you can upload any type of file....photos, mp3's, movie files, or even host your own website.
I cant post a pic I don't think I would fit into the crowd... I look totally different...
