Wow that was epic! Nice job Bill.

Yeah, Lou, are you sure?

But what a great photo!

The program immediately cottoned on to the jazz hands pose. Thanks Cliff, I had more fun with Lou’s photo than I should have.

Hope there’s one there one here you can use Lou.

*I might just have to re-edit the Mikmas Illustrated with these better choices.

Laughing hysterically.

…and a picture of Fred Mills? We could see if the program works on Canadians too…:smiley:

P.S. I’m not addicted to the Pincel program. I can give it up any time…

Thanks Jon, Rooster & Cliff. Yeah, I can give it up anytime. 28 hours this time.

“Father Fred” or is it “Friar Fred”? I’ve included a robed Fred Mills as that’s in his profile. There’s got to be some good backstories to this…

Someday I hope to have my picture taken with Rooster too.

Well Bill , there are many more pictures of “With Rooster” not a guy named Roster that has never met these people. Roosters just document and preserve history (like Notre Dame) which is another one of my hobbies. Remember they say what happens on the internet never goes away? However NOW I’m glad I did take and save a lot of pics!!

A few bonus pics ONLY because it’s Christmas ( well at least still on this side of the globe).

BTW …Fred does not like nicknames only real ones!

I laughed so hard I thought I was dying. Sad but funny!

Apologies Roo-ster. I’ve now corrected the post so that Roster won’t get the credited for the photos.

BTW… Who are these historical figures your above post?

Nice. And I thought I had no life!

Officially, it’s Friar Fred, abbreviated Fr. Fred which many take to mean Father.

The abbreviated back story is that Fr. Fred in full regalia was a regular fixtuure for many years at the East Coast Large Scale Train Show when it was held in York, PA. I was taken into the fold in the later years of the tradition. Fred originated the Drag & Brag at the ECLSTS, or at least the idea of a fellowship room after the show. He was an expert at getting fairly large quantities of beer donated which provided the lubricant to lots of great stories. When Fred could no longer make the trip, Ric Golding, and later BD took over management of the D&B Room.

Fred could tell some great stories. Many stuffed rodents and musical instruments were involved. I only managed to make it to one or two official Rodent Party.

You just never know where Rooster will appear.

Awesome Bill, lots of fun. Glad even though I was mentioned there were no likenesses of me. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
