HEY!!! they were my flight Attendants!

Look out matt. Somedody's gonna get hurt real bad.

Just look at this way, Cornro, based on today's exchange rates, that 5.99 you received is actually a 7.0059 (in Canada) - which is a really solid score.

And what the hell is a "somedody"?
And why do you want to hurt it?

you are not only correct, but you are very wise, sir. humblest apologies.

and the 'Somebody's gonna get hurt" line is from a reasonably famous Comedian named Russell Peters who I saw a few months back. Ever since I saw him I can't stop quoting him. it's like an illness.

OK, so really, nobody's gonna get hurt, real bad or otherwise (I never was one for smack talk - I'm more the 'let your score do the ass-whoopin' kinda guy).

Indeed...I have an idea, it's yellow so it meets the challenge (unlike my low-key entry which some thought should have more contrast...wtf? I thought it was a low key challenge?), and it's gonna be good. I hope. maybe. Above a 6 anyway, so there's your bar - get over a 6 and you have a fighting chance.

Respectfully, but with a pseudo-evil staredown,

I understand you are diseased...I was just picking on your spelling. :-)

I took my "If all else fails, submit this" picture last night. It won't score a 6. At most, a 5.8.
But I have 3 other ideas now that may really work out nicely. I'm currently sitting on 6.22 for my Deja Vu - and I am hoping to top that with Yellow. I don't think I have the talent to get over a 6.7, so there's your bar.

I think there are rules about pointing out spelling or grammatical errors:

a) you can't do it if it's after 1 or 2 am

2) you can't do it if I've been moving and assembling furniture for 6 hours

iii) you can't do it if I've consumed the majority of a bottle of Jack Daniels while completing tasks described in rule 2

IV)this is more of a guideline than a rule) you shouldn't do it if I'm about to score at least a 6.5 in the upcoming head to head, since it will only make the post-contest mocking that much worse.

Yo Padre,

g) Calling one's score to be above a 6.5 after a lengthy leave of absence usually results in an ego smashing 5.2

Whisky Tango) Be careful talking smack to and challenging someone that has nothing to lose...no reputation...and is a virtual unknown. They can sometimes provide the sharpest bite.

For your sake (and your ego's), I hope that you do score a 6.5.
I would hate to see a DPC Legend collapse in a puddle of man-tears.

Let's just hope I can shoot like a pro for this Challenge...this dude is serious, and he's pissed. I heard he took the whole week of work off to prepare for this (and move furniture one day).

no the furniture moving was just training. For the shoot i have to move much bigger things. and..uh...break some things. and grunt a lot, with a primal scream thrown in for good measure. then I'll wrestle some alligators. and maybe a Puma.

does anyone know where i can get a puma?

All true...but that's not NEARLY as fun to trash-talk about as your ego is. :-)

Pumas are dangerous...playboy bunnies are A LOT safer...

I bought some props today, but need to get more tomorrow and again on friday. I think the 'ink'll still be wet' so to speak on my entry I always leave it to the last minute, but I enjoy the planning almost as much as the shoot!

My bestest buddy TAZZA is gonna lend me his camera as well, so thinks are looking up...if I wasnt against kiwiness it'd be much better!

ah hell my ego can take it; i've had a lot worse embarrassments than losing a photo contest. Like that time when I did a karaoke version of "I Will Survive" with a pink feather boa at a drag show. Now that was tough on the ego. My mom still mocks me.
