Got mine today. I just wanted you guys to know it cost Darryl over $2.00 in postage, plus the box, wrapping paper, time, not to mention the hat itself.
Let's "hoist the main brace" in honor of Darryl. 
   
   
   
   
   
 
I'll have my daughter snap a pic of me wearing it, and post a pic of it tomorrow.

Well, I can honestly say it would be nice if every winner snap a photo of themselves with their prizes...... 
I personally enjoy seeing a face attached to a name..... :-) :-)

My digital camera was in my backpack and stolen out of my car last week. I understand the backpack has been recovered, but I don't know yet if the camera was still in it. My old cell phone was, so I'm hoping. If it was GREAT, if not I'll have to borrow one at work to take the picture and show it to you guys. 
No promises against insomnia, heartburn, or nausea either.

It's really great you guys are taking pictures with your gifts.  I really appreciate that.  I finally get to put some faces with the names.  Maybe I'll take one of me and have Steve upload it for me, since I'm still computer illiterate... 
Steve,
I know, I know...Devils Backbone Road....it's fitting really, because there are lots of hills and curves. I didn't name it, but it's a nice street. The name was even featured in a movie called "Airborne" (skater flick) several years ago.
You think I have it bad, there's a church just up the street....imagine the eyebrow's that go up when someone reads their address...1191 Devils Backbone Road... :-) :-) :-)

The irony of it all and your address label was just too tempting! :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)
Hold off on sending me your photo, I have E-mail and Internet woes at the moment and trying to get them fixed. I hope to be 5 by 5 by the end of the week.

Darryl, if you have yours try and send it. I think I can receive at least.

Steven
Looking at your pic with that 1/72 U-boat in front of you just makes my realize your arm- and shoulders muscles are bigger than those of Stallone and Schwarzenegger together.
Incredible... that must have cost you years of hard exercising.. shaking paintbottles, open tweezer, close tweezer, open tweezer... etc....
  
   
   
   
   
   
 
Now I dare anyone to look at your pic and say that modelbuilding isn't good for the health!!!
