I meant that in all sincerity. The shots of you interacting with the customer tell the story of how you help owners. The shots of either you or a customer appear to be just shots of people working on their VWs.

Agreed, though. Different strokes. Just my opinion.

Do mean pictures like the mentor and the student, studious efforts, laboratory setting???

I'll make no mention of the continuous stream of bad one-liner jokes and running commentary on the functionality of the Holley/Weber mistake fueling this all.

I know you meant that in all sincerity, glasseye, I just had to take the opportunity to tease.
I personally like the interactions photographs, some of them have a wonderful mystery to them when you do not know what is going on at the time. "What are these two people doing with that whatchamacallit" and I also like pictures like Belle Plaine splatted on the floor with an unwieldy engine and hippiewannabee walking out of a garage where it really looks like an alien magnetodestructogizmo disassembled his entire mechanical universe. It is a good suggestion and I am going to substitute some of the more static shots.

I propose a captioning contest for this image. I get last place by default. :flower:

The above picture of Colin with his free range co-op gathered and sold coffee from the local free soup kitchen and reading room looks much like it should be captioned, "Ohhh, this is going to hurt when that spring lets loose and he pokes that screw driver through his palm. I hope I don't get splattered blood in my Mocha Cappucino".

Not 'round here. We got a Keurig for this year's visit... hot, foo-foo coffee on demand. Imma buy some 99.9% recycled, ferret-poop coffee from free-range coffee plants grown in a World Heritage Upland Jungle Preserve by pre-Colombian nomadic peoples using hand-shaped tools made from pure vegan obsidian and organic granite extracted from original Roman mines in the Dolomites.

Also, I'm going to post some pix tonight later. First I gotta get liquored up.

Headlight dimmer relay/switch. After years of being submerged it was determined that it was toast. Well, that and the fact that it practically disintegrated in your hands after being sprayed with electric parts cleaner. Oh, that's why the high beams don't work.

Now I remember. We were trying to get that fool minute spring back on that hopelessly crowded copper pivot plate . . . ah memories.

Aw gee, there have been so many women I have taken to lunch, um, jog my memory,
You weren't that beige pantsuit real estate lady who kept telling me "I would have baked you a cake"?
Were you the one who loved sunsets on the beach, kittens, and laughing in the rain?
No wait, the goth woman with tattoos in that old '20's decor restaurant next to the railroad tracks, you ran a curio shop named the Obsidian Ocelot, "the hell I AM going to pay back taxes when it wasn't even mine yet"?
No, it is coming back to me, you were that strawberry blonde who drove Manx buggies and sailed fast Bahama Sloops, and did some crazy trip in a '69 VW bus to Arctic Circle all by herself?

It would be my pleasure to give Elwood as much time and attention as he needs . . . when I get to California.
