That's me and junior near a waterfall in Sikkim last October. A sweater, fleece jacket and Army parka adds to the illusion of podginess (i.e. I ain't so fat!!!)

With Junior (in local dress) & better half. Touristy pose in Sikkim, somewhere between Gangtok & Rumtek Monastery, last October.
Cheers!

bullrick,
Excellent photo. Love the location.
Because of you I've been searching for a photo of me in an exotic location and have been unable to come up with anything in a suitably heroic pose.

In desperation, I thought of posting something like Moin's fish story but since he already did it.....
BTW, Moin, that Man-purse you're so fixated upon? They call it a "Murse". :)

I did find an photo of me in the cockpit of a Mustang but that was at an air show a few years ago.

Anyhow, the most recent photos that I can find are the ones from the IFG meet in Illinois; which you have all seen.

Yeah, we did have a great time! Going to J&K this November.

On close-up shots, POT SHOTS are the reason I didn't put one, plus the fact that most close ups of me are extremely "candid" ones taken by my kiddo - rather embarassing to keep on the hard drive, to say nothing of exhibiting in public!!!

XL, that Mustang seems to have a history - 4 Japanese kills, did I read that right?? And you look ready to take on the entire fleet of Kamikazes!

Yogibear, somehow your snap is not showing.
Cheers!

My my, this must be a very old pic, have seen your wonderful posts lately and you look much older :mrgreen: and wiser now with all the grey hair. :mrgreen:

What's with the XL call sign :D You must be at max size medium, XL would be understandable if it was some one like Hammerheadpaji. :mrgreen:

Yogibear, your photo is not showing on my computer either. Just checked and it's most probably the photo is hosted on an external website that has my IP on their banlist :( (not uncommon as a lot of spam originates from Indian ISP servers). You could try uploading it as an attachment to your post/ you could also link to it via flickr/ photobucket/ any other image hosting service etc.

Cheers!

I can see Yogibear's photo on the phone's browser but not on the computer. Strange.

That's because your phone's IP is not in the Ban List and your PC's is, Moinji.

Just realized that I haven't even shared the pic of my blades until now, let alone the face behind them !! :oops:

So, here are a few tools of mine:

And here's me(ofcourse, some time back!):
