: : : : you that all I want is maybe one or two people to look at it and
: : : : say, "Hey, that's cool!" or "Wow! You look sort of like Harrison Ford!" Know I know why Beth calls this the interNOT.

: : ....but my comment to your picture was NOT mean't as any kind of put down or insult toward you, Kenneth. I have found to date that anything you comment on regarding these pictures, either good or bad, is that you never know how that individual will react, so speaking for myself, I usually don't reply at all. Since I had sold you this fedora, I felt obligated to say something. I'm sorry I did now. You two also have to realize that a lot of folks don't log onto this forum until late in the evening, so a lot of times these are not seen in the time period that they are posted, so keep that in mind if you don't hear any responses right off. Most of these pictures don't really need a reply do they? They stand on their own merit, or so I have always thought. I must have been incorrect in thinking this, considering the closing statements in both postings. Michaelson
Your comments really hit the mark: it IS annoying when people
like us work hard and spend ($2000) to buy ALL of the official Indy
outfit components and then take the time and effort to have a photo
made to have people turn around and say "That sucks." They could be
a little nicer, or, as Michaelson so eloquently put it, not say
anything at all. (At least that's better than a bad review!)
Thanks Kenneth and Michaelson!!! You guys are the best!!! :)
-Yours truly,
Dale Dassel
