Intro

[Peter]

So, you're the photographic equivalent of a guy who cuts cows in half and pickles them, or who throws buckets of paint at a wall?

Nope. I'm the guy who takes pictures of the wall after someone throws buckets of pickled cow at it.

Actually, now that I think about it, do you happen to have access to a cow, Peter? A black and white one, preferably. For the contrast, you see.

Or, failing that, how much do you happen to weigh?

(Aspie Disclaimer: The above was meant to be at least slightly humorous. I'm sure Peter would not be amenable to bisection. Nor do I have the energy for that much sawing.)

It's mostly highland cows here, and horses, and some deer.  You could use a big circular saw; I bet I'd make a pretty bisection.

Are you on the no-fly list yet for those anti-war photos?

hehe

Well, technically, the photos aren't anti-war. The march was. The photos are just "news" coverage.

Actually, someone asked me to cover the march - so I did. I have no idea what they did with the pictures afterward. I assume they aren't violating my copyright ;-)

Personally, I get a bit peeved at the new Peaceniks. I was against this war - actually the entire administration - from the very beginning. In fact, I was against them when they were all Nixon's buddies - except for the few Reaganites. Sheesh. Doesn't anyone have a memory anymore? I KNOW they have Google. Couldn't they look these guys up before voting for them? These are the same guys who ALWAYS start wars when they get in power. Always. They don't consider it a sin to kill other folks' kids for cash.

Whatever, Sorry for the rant.

Anyway, I am well and truly aspie. Therefore, I have just a tiny bit of trouble actually asking people to model for pose or model for me. You may have noticed an almost complete lack of non-candid people photos in the 1200+ pictures I posted on Flickr. So, I try to cover the periodic march or parade or event just so I can get a little practice shooting humans. When a person is acting publicly, they can't refuse a photo.

Still, if I were on the no-fly list, it would be a big relief: I hate airlines almost as much as the dentist. Actually, the dentist doesn't torture you for such large blocks of time - nor charge you as much. Hmmm. Ok, I hate air travel WORSE that the dentist - and I REALLY hate the dentist. (Can I hear an "amen!" from the congregation?!)

  About the "peaceniks."

[gitchel]

Wow, thanks for even more Welcomes! :-)

I saw a few references to this site on WP. Mostly, they were fairly lame attempts to insert it into the Evil Site thread.

Evil site thread? Gotta link?

Somehow, I'd presume that ANY links
to the land of the ass fairies would disappear,
right quick.

Oh, snap! I fucked up. It wasn't on WP. It was on AFF.

It was funny. I had to get someone to private message the link to me (Hard to search for "I2"). I had to verify that I was over 18 ;-)

Apologies for the mistake. (I make mistakes often, and like to share them with my friends. Aren't you lucky that I don't knit tea cozies and share THEM with my friends? ;-)

Cool.  Thanks for the link, Gitchel.   

Oh and thanks for the link back, Mad Kangaroo.  I wonder how long your link will last on AFF?

Gah. This is how people end up being burned for witchcraft. Wish people would check things out for themselves before forming their opinion.

I'm not sure.  Maybe where McJagger says that the neurological issues of PMS are caused by societal conditioning?

 

Like garmonbozia said, there are plenty of women here who will fire right back.
