As others have suspected, Bee-dubya-ell is #27. Jerry took that photo at an outdoor art show a couple of weeks ago and it has transformed my usually attractive visage into that of a singularly ugly motherfucker. I am really much purtier than that. Even my Mudcat Member Photo (which was taken by Jerry's wife at the Fla. Folk Festival) is better. I guess it's a male domination thing. Men naturally photograph other men at their ugliest to minimize the competition for women. I'm gonna have to break down and buy a digital camera now so I can fix that little problem.

Jerry is still tweaking the website. You can now leave fields blank if you don't want to share the information with everyone in cyberspace. He's working on speeding up the jpg posting, but I wouldn't look for the picture being up until about 24 hours after registering any time in the near future. The boy does have to work for a living and the NBR is just for fun.

In the manner of Daddy Bush (King George I) and Dubya, Jerry and I are now referring to each other as 15 and 27.

Keep those registrations coming.
