About Yes . . . Glass . . . in the Bar . . . THESE are the incredible lengths I am willing to go through to fulfill project requirements. And they won't let you just sit there and take photos either . . . I was forced to indulge in a beverage . . . or two . . . or . . . Well . . . it's all about getting the shot (excuse the pun) now isn't it??? Hehehehee :)

You're on J-E . . . but we have to bring our cameras. As the night progresses, we'll set them to blurrier and blurrier . . . so we can capture what we see . . . :)

- Yes . . . I walked out Ray! Never been carried out yet . . . but, then again, I'm young (in MY mind) . . . So long as people live to 108 yrs. old . . . I'M middle aged!!!! :)

(scanning obituaries to extend the "Middle Age" definition),

Hey Michele. . . it's simple . . . a bit more bleach and you'll be back in sync. ;) Perhaps getting a tad too good and a tad too smart!!

I just love your humour Doyle. You put heart and soul into your photography, you are picking off project after project and still entertain us with brilliant abouts:) :) An excellent plan to get a good shot by forcing the barman to re-arrange his display and a very pleasant way to pass the time while he did so. Did you walk out afterwards?? All the best my friend.....Ray :) :) :)

Hi Doyle,

I just meant that in reading others comments...no one else seemed to ask or question the bartender / mirror 'trick' ...

I just felt that I was extra blonde when I made my comment and fell right into the trap ! It is an excellent and fun image... I meant no harm ... I was looking for others to mention the mirror... and didn't see any comments so felt like I was too blonde....
That's It !
Am I too blonde? Or am I the smart one with too much bleach ??
Your turn .

Happy TGIF,
Michele~

Cheers,

Hehehee . . . this was fun! Believe it or not . . . that's a mirror . . . the bartender is over by me!!

And in die-hard, grueling fashion . . . Marlyce and I (and a guest waiting for his flight out of LAX) . . . would routinely empty our glasses to force the bartender to move about . . . move bottles . . . move glasses . . . I was determined to do what was needed until I got the perfect composition you see here before you!!

BWA HAHAHAHAHAA!

Regards,
Doyle I <~~~~~
