Pro athletes (Dave's weekly update #558)

Greetings fellow AMOCers.

This is Brian West again. Matt is still on vacation this evening. So, I am covering for him tonight here.

Here are some more pics from his trip. He mentioned that, "If you ride the Disney Magic, you can trade for a pin WORN by your's truly on my little expedition."

Here are his pins.

Some familiar faces.

Matt and his family are safe and sound, BTW. They have not been affected by the Hurricane, which is now a tropical depression here in The Commonwealth of Kentucky, where I am.

He should be back virtually tomorrow. 

 
If you will indulge me, in the spirit of Mags "AMOC Amuck" I want to share something of mine that is off the wall.

Happy belated Batman Day. 

I realize Batman Day was a week ago, but I think this picture I created is still pretty neat. (Insert Roach reference at your own risk.)


Congratulations to Batman for getting his own star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Speaking of celebrity: here's Dave's newest WEEKLY UPDATE ...




I hope Dave never gets an inkling of the shenanigans American pro athletes get themselves into on a daily basis. 

Anywho, thanks to Matt Dow for having me do this. It's been fun.

To Clarify: Disney does "Pin Trading". I traded a Matisse Pin. If you want it, you have to go on the boat. That's where all these pins are.

oh shit. He's back. Everyone! Boss man is back! Did you clean up the "kitchen" or are we still cooking? Just get it all out of here. Is there gas in the car? I think the people down the hall know who we are. . .

Brian West said...

Thank you for the clarification, Matt.

I think I cleaned up after myself. But the gas? I forgot about that.
