Who are those guys?

The old timers here already know this, but for the newbees - did you know there is a picture of the WebMaster and his beautiful wife that all of us can admire - right here on Ford-Diesel.com?

Sure there is! Where? Well, it's sort of hiding. Scroll up to the top of this screen and click on the big Ford-Diesel.com logo. That gets you to the main screen of this website. On the left edge of that screen there is a menu with several itty bitty words, including for sale, FAQ, and editors. You can guess what the for sale area is for, and maybe even have a clue to what the FAQ might be. But editors?

And when you were moderated by PhilD, did you assume he was a crusty old retiree like SmokeyWren?

Click on "editors" and you'll find where Jason hid his picture. Scroll down and read about Carpentractor, who lives across the Hudson from West Point, NY. And if you downloaded and appreciate the new screensaver, then you might want to look at the photo of Dick Cutting, the photos editor. If you would like to see a college "kid" that does a fine job as one of the moderators here, then look at the picture of PhilD. If you believe that everybody that lives in Vegas looks like Elvis, then click on JohnM's photo. And to see the newest Junior Moderator and Darling Wife, then scroll plumb to the bottom of the list.

You can also read about Rick, Shawn, Travis, DieselJay and others of the moderators and editors, but some of them haven't figured out how to get a picture to Jason yet.

And if you don't have time for all that surfing but just want to take a gander at Mrs. Jason, then just click on this: http://www.ford-diesel.com/about/editors.php3

Re: Who are those guys?

Yeah, I looked. Smokey looks better on the forums. He apparently married better than his wife did, though! The pictures of the wives reminds me, though - no matter how beautiful the trucks, they are not a patch on the women in our lives. Thanks for showing the human side, gents.

Re: Who are those guys?

Is that really Smokey, or just his evil twin?

Smokey --

It's hard to tell in the picture; do you have a short beard? If you do, you could be my twin brother.

Yep. I was "middle management" for over 30 years, having to wear a jacket and tie every day - shave every morning - Florsheim wingtips. Then I retired.

I haven't shaved since I retired on Nov 8, 1993. But I can't grow a real beard - looks like the cliche of a Chinese gentleman's beard - so I vary it in length between a close-clipped "Don Johnson" to about 1/4th-inch long. I don't try to impress anybody with my clothes - Levies and golf shirts usually - that picture was a t-shirt. Darling Wife retired not long after I did and she adopted my comfortable dress and grooming style.

Now we "dress up" only for funerals and weddings - but no shaving even for my Mom's funeral last year.

Smokey,

That IS a dress shirt. All you gotta do is read the logo. That says it all!

Re: Who are those guys?

My wife gets mad when she tells me to dress up and I put on my nice jeans and a nice golf shirt. I wore that ensemble to work one day and everyone commented how dressed up I was (the norm is blue jeans and a free t-shirt from one of our vendors)

Re: Who are those guys?

LOL, My casual wardrobe consists entirely of Gaming T-Shirts that were supposed to be given out with games.

My friend at Software Etc found hundreds of them that were supposed to be given out but never were. I always wanted a Sim City (Original Mac) T-Shirt.

Gotta love promotions
