I know that no one will believe this but I will be positing shots of the Blue Goose today. I am at work so I will not be and able to resize the images. I was hoping that someone would be kind enough the shrink the images down for me. I had to use a little point and shoot so there is not a micro setting. A couple of the photos will be a little blurry. The only thing left is a little weathering.

, I know it is sad, no digital camera, no computer at the house . I went to the college where I usually post photos but the computers were being used to sign up for classes. . The world is against me I will try and sneak on a computer tonight after my meeting at the college.

Cue theme tune for 'Mission Impossible'........DB enters, stage left, in a sureptitious manner. Sneaking crafitly below the window, he pads silently towards the stairs and makes his way to the lab.....

LMAO, you were there last night. I went over the the computer lab and slipped under the ropes. There were about 15 free work stations. Every couple of minutes a kid would come over to help me sign up for classes. They started being a pain because I was not a student, does not matter that I teach a class, stupid kids. Since I did not want to be picked up by the campus cops, I left and went over to the math lab, 30 free machines and only 1 kid working there. I logged on the computer and then the web site. I pop in the CD and started to down load the photos when a skinny geek ran over and wanted to test me to see what math class I could siign up for. D!@#$. Once classes start I can hit the computers with a sledge hammer and no one would care. The school wants the machines free for students to sign up $$$. I felt like I was trying to get a seat at the Mad Hatter's tea party. I live in a GET LUCK thread.

[Heinz]

Ah computer politics really fail don't they!

I have faith in you DBII Maybe for the mean time have an artist impression done of the model so far?

 

[Wayne Little]

Well....the effort is commendable DB !....guess we will be patient a while longer then!

 

[DBII]

Thanks, I will be flying on one wing for 8 weeks. I hear beer is good for broken hands.

DBII

Jameson Irish Whisky is better

 

[DBII]

yes but the bottle is harder to open with one hand.

This thread is like crack. You keep teasing us with pictures and then you finally post fuzzy out of focus pictures. Are you the guy that took those pictures of Bigfoot walking in the woods?

Can't wait to see the finished "IN" focus photos.
