A Face To The Name

My apologies if there is already a self-picture thread or if this belongs in OMNI; feel free to move.

I think it's always nice to have a face to go along with the name or username in our case. I'll go first.

To cut a long story short - close to Iguacu Falls, in Paraguay but about to cross back into Argentina. Taxi drivers on strike blocked the Brazil-Argentine border. The tour guide crossed us, illegally I might add, from Brazil into Paraguay and then bribed the naval frontier patrol and we crossed on a small boat back into Argentina. I just had to get a photo to prove it!!!!

Fair enough, my photo above is at the Alaska Aviation Museum in Anchorage. And if Willie doesn't want to share one of him, I have a few from the Dos of his I go to

Ok. Let's try again. Here's a pic of me on top of Table Mountain in Cape Town, South Africa.

James from Los Angeles. Thanks to NewbieRunner on the photo tip!

You do realize that you can post a picture of yourself (or anything you want) in your FlyerTalk profile, right?

That way, anyone can look up your picture by clicking on your username, and selecting "View Public Profile."

You go to "My FlyerTalk" (upper left, under forum/thread name) and under "Your Control Panel" (not sure why it's "Your" instead of "My," but...) click on "Edit Profile Picture."

Last time I checked, and this may have very well changed, those pictures are tiny and require small uploads. I still think this is a fun thread for us to show off our mugs with gorgeous backgrounds.
