I had to pay tribute to SenatorJohnson, one of the most genuine and nicest guys here. Ever since last year's Moustache May, I've never failed to notice his enthusiasm for doing this and have looked forward to seeing his submissions and reading his comments to me and others. I was on the fence about doing it this year, but actually checked with him to see if he was. Knowing he'd be taking part in Moustache May, and sensing his energy for it, caused me to decide to go for it, and I thank him for that.

Trying to do this particular shot made some things automatically different. Different space of course, different color "labbit", wood floor instead of white carpet, but the spirit of his idea is here. This was tough! (My mistake for accidentally getting "bendy" straws. argh.)

Here's to ya, Jamie.

miguelito says:: immaculate re-creation. well done sir!

Chalkdog says:: The pink labbits are more inclined towards being lured by salt water taffy I find.

Senator Johnson says:: Wow, Jay! I don't know what to say. You've definitely made my early work morning much more tolerable. Infinite thanks for the kind words. I'm glad I had a hand in convincing you to return for a second year. You're a true gentleman and a man of great talent. This place just wouldn't have been the same without you!

Senator Johnson says:: Oh, and gunsmoke..... Good eye on the exercise equiplife, but it's not mine. My pic was taken at a friend's apartment. Anyone who has ever met me in person can tell that I've never owned any sort of workout apparatus in my life.
