Nevermind...obviously I have managed to stumble onto a pic with the right format and bumble through uploading it. Tried to edit/change to a better one with jpg format but no luck so far.

Hey MPD...I tried to lift a pic of a coelocanth off wikipedia but it didn't have the right format(jpg). Should I scan a pic out of a library book or what? I'm technologically challenged, obviously. Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated.

A tribute to Michael Jackson would be having his moonwalking image photoshopped over this guy. Soutie's idea, not mine.

Hmmm, tricky one this, phatmanwc is probably right about the contrast. Right hand looks gloved, left hand looks ungloved. Possibly a Michael Jackson tribute??

I'm with shorey on this one, give me a double up mutant anyday....then back home for six lashes with the cat o'nine tails!

Shorey...I thought the only person in this group that was into S & M was Sqirl's wife.

Closeouts dude, big, hollow, heavy, shallow, bone crunching closeouts, thats why.
Coelacanth Jul 6, 2009 Rating: -2
Shorey...I completely agree with you and fully understand why you reacted like you did. I would have, too! What I don't understand is why you have this...penchant for boogery...(thanks Austin Powers)...just kidding

I love my mom. Some "your mother" jokes are funny, others just plain disgusting. "Your moms so fat she ahs her own area code" thats quite funny. "I am going to come and rape your mom with a baseball bat" or jokes about her with a face full of cum, not so funny. I can take a joke but there is a big difference between a joke and an insult.

Nevermind. I found the answer to my question above. I'm not that retarded. Just came to class late and am a slow learner

Hey nouettes...Yeah, I just started paying more attention to all this banter very recently. Never saw the comment that set him off or who said it but his reply made it clear enough what the comment was. What is his profile name now, anyway? I'm sorry I called you a boogie-ist. I should have called you a foamophobe.
nouettes Jul 4, 2009 Rating: -2
F#ck em! You gotta love a bit of banter. Best thing about this site, as I've said before.(Just dont mention love trysts with Shoreys mum!)
Coelacanth Jul 4, 2009 Rating: 0
Hey nouettes...You did kinda open this can of worms (a colloquial American expression) by stating how much better the picture was with standup surfer in it, rather than a boogieboarder. You're a boogie-ist! How do you think that made all those spongers all over the world feel?
Coelacanth Jul 3, 2009 Rating: -2
Hey nouettes... I checked out the Bantham pic comments. Now I understand why certain subjects should probably be left alone, especially in an international forum. Crowds and sponger vs standup conflicts are not nearly as bad at my local breaks as they apparently are elsewhere in the world. I am trying, like you were in the Bantham pic comments, to get people to take themselves less seriously. I am sorry if I pissed you off.
nouettes Jul 3, 2009 Rating: 2
Beckhams nickname is golden balls. There are certain linguistic and cultural differences between us UK, USA and SA people. However I doubt that your post could be considered to be humorous in any of these countries.... Anyway f#ck this sh#t. Check the Bantham pic comments for some real cross-cultural w#nkers
Coelacanth Jul 3, 2009 Rating: 0
No no Nouettes...I don't understand. You seem to be able to grasp some deep meaning linking gold(en) nuggets, David Beckham and soccer(what you call football!)that is beyond my ability to comprehend. I was actually just replying to Dan V D's comment above yours where he used the phrase 'boogie vs standup crap'. Like it's a bad thing! I'm just trying to stir up a little humor here, man.
nouettes Jul 3, 2009 Rating: -2
Hmm golden nuggets, I like it. Beckhamesque even. He's a football player Col. You call it soccer, the rest of the world says football. Do we understand each other now ?
nouettes Jul 2, 2009 Rating: -1
I dont know about that. For me,the fact that he is surfing and not boogieboarding really is the cherry on the cake of this beautiful picture...
Dan V D Jul 2, 2009 Rating: 0
Fully agree. Perfect picture. Nature just reminding us what this site and our sport is all about....no boogie vs standup crap here, just the vibe.

Really nice, at least you got this shot before your equipment crapped out.
