There's no such thing as "nothing left to draw" If you can down 10 pints and draw, you're doing alright by my standards

Re: Post your picture
26 years ago, on this date, I was baptised...And not in a church, or in the front room of my grandmother's house...
No, as the photograph attached shows, I was baptised aboard USS New Jersey (BB-62). My mother, in the blue, is holding me. My father is in the background. The Chaplain is next to my father, hiding behind one of the two sailors holding the Ship's Bell, which, during a shipboard baptism traditionally is used to hold the holy water. My name is still etched inside the bell of the New Jersey, and also in the ship's deck logs from 5 October, 1985, currently housed in the Library of Congress. Being a Brat has it's privelages.

Re: Post your picture
For me to remember that time in the shipyard that I worked on before, where we received in a fishing boat that had gone warm, the entire engine room was under 50 cm of oil from the Hydraulic power system. and guess who had to swim in it! Even with full protective clothing, I got blisters on my body.
it was fun!

I'm the one with the bowtie.
(As for the silly looking grin/smirk, all I can say in my own defense is ... "alcohol may have been involved".)
