I'm a centerfold

“Last week I did a 45 minute interview with a reporter from our local newspaper about being the featured artist at the local gallery.

The article came out today....There is a little blurb on the front page about the article in todays "Buzz" a magazine insert about local events etc. I'm also on the cover of the "Buzz" and a two page centerfold article with some of my photos.

I never ever would have thought....I would be a centerfold ;) LOL!”

“It's not on their website yet (small town paper)

It's too big for my little scanner...
”

“Very cool. Congratulations!”

“I just noticed Matt the Webmaster is in the centerfold too.....kinky LOL!”

“Kewl.”

“Wow! I've never seen one of those sunsets with a face in it!!”

“That is really cool. Congratulations...”

“BM - yeah, does God look like WW? And WW just looks like he'd have one of those deep voices too.”

“Chicago Mark and Matt posed for a centerfold?

WTF?”

“Fantastic! When are you giving up your day job and looking for sponsers to send you on hikes?”

“Great!”

“Cool WW keep it going”

“Do you see a career change in the near future?”

“Super Duper Coool!”

“WW, you didn't give the paper those pictures from the "special" photo session after the trip? Hopefully they chose the one showing my good side.

“Great write-up. I can't wait to get some tips on the July trip. Are you going to carrying your D70 digital or film? I bought an Olympus C-5060 but might wind up bringing my old OM-2n instead.”

“Congrats! Please stay you. But I do want your autograph in case you change. Soon you will be heading up George W. Bush's Homeland Photography Department. You need to change your name to Wind Winner. I'm tuggin' on your coattails, please don't forget me. I'll even show you some cool underground cities and stuff. There is an incredible 3,200' waterfall inside the Mt. Whitney massif. It silks out real nice.”

“Nah nah nin nah nah nah Wind Walker is a Centerfold ...”

“Wind Walker is Merle Haggard?”

“Didn't they write a song about you? Who sang that song? That wasn't Cheap Trick, was it?

"My angel is a centerfold!"”

“J. Geils Band, silly.”

“Ahh, that's right. I knew I was wrong.”

“J. Geils Band

“Cool, dude!!!”

“I opened this thread because I thought there'd be nakedness! What a disappointment. J/K

Totally kick butt!!!”

“Does this mean it\'s going to snow?”

“Cool beans! I didn't get a chance to look at the P'ville paper today, but I'll make sure I find it at work tomorrow. If I find it will you sign it for me Windy? I wish I could go to your artist's reception but I don't get out of work in Springville 'til 4:30 :(
