I do know the answer. Mostly I'm impressed with the photographer for figuring out how to take this picture. Real creative thinking from that guy. Whoever he was.

Yes, yes. I know too, but it seems to soon in the thread to answer.
My Daddy told us the story when he hand-made a zoetrope for us. Bless him, I think we were more interested in Swing-Ball that year.

I'm glad we don't have avatars because I would get avatar envy. I don't have the inclination or resources to find something that would go even halfway to communicating how bloody cool I am.

I know.

Interestingly, that picture is part of the "logo" for Elttaes Theaters here in my neighborhood. Yes it was very clever.

Certainly can, many people think they really are what they project when it's far from the truth.

If you're not interested, don't post. If you want to argue about it, how about the why no avatars thread. I'm curious to see what people might choose.
How many times do you have to hear it, you don't own the thread. If you don't want to argue, don't.
