I think most of Loddys list is true, in one way or another...I especially like the ones idea of housework, being sweeping the room with a glance...my kind of housework...or the one where if you really look like your passport picture, you really do need that vacation...

My sons passport picture, makes him look like a big criminal...

When my husband was in the army, his unit was on standby alert, should trouble break out anywhere in the world, his unit from the 82nd airborne, would be deployed immediately...

And as luck would have it, this was in 1978, when the tensions in Zaire, were heightened...his unit was called up, and told they would be flying into Zaire...so he got suited up, parachute on, gear in tow, and ready to go...

They were on the plane, all ready and set to go...one of the guys had a camera on board, and was taking individual pictures of all the soldiers, while they were waiting for the order to take off...As it happened, at the last minute, the whole thing was called off...

Afterwards, the guy with the camera, got his film developed and had a duplicate set made up, so that he had a full set, and each soldier got an individual picture of himself...

You should my husbands picture...of course he had his 'bad ass' face on...but he looks like a mercenary...when I saw that pic, I could not believe it was him, but it was...

I, myself, take rotten pictures...when my boys looked at my pictures from posed classroom pictures from grade school, their comment was "Mom, why do you look like a man?"(I think that was the year, I chopped all the hair off the top of my head, and looked like an imbecile)
