Has anyone already noticed the interesting link we all have:

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b205/ih8mcdonalds/Barrowdownsphotopage/legate01.jpg

So...seems some anti-fastfood message hidden there, isn't it?

Actually I am quite fond of McDonald's, don't really care about the whole unhealthy part as long as I get my food .

Has anyone ever told you that you a quite handsome, Gwathagor? Don't know if such a compliment would be out of place here, but I think you are.

Oh! That is so funny! I didn't picture you as a "skinny blond kid" but I thought you were a little closer to it then the pictures of you are! Wow. Yeh, your not blond, and it doesn't quite look like you could be called a kid anymore, eh?

You look disturbingly like someone I know. But the disturbing this is, I don't know who...

Oh dear.

I imagined Gwathagor was 15 (a very mature 15-year-old, though).

Well, you remind me a bit of this Finnish pop singer Antti Tuisku, but I don't think he's famous anywhere.

Thumbs up That's right, I've got a shiny eye.

I recently found a picture of me taken a few months back. I kept meaning to post it up 'ere on the Downs, but always forgot.

Anyway, hope it makes you sick on your computers.

That is a cool shirt... At least, I would like to own one like that. How recently was that taken? You look extremely young...

That's the photobucket account I have, so you'll have to live with it.

I can't say I care a lot about the unhealthy part, but it's a bonus. Other bonuses are that the stuff tastes bad, is expencive and doesn't fill one up. The main reason however is the destructive force of the company.

I'll not go on with a rant about the subject as I'm quite fed up with it.

I thought that Morsul the Dark had a familiar looking picture on the photo page. What do y'all think?

Very nice, Gwathagor. In the first picture you remind me of Legate, except you have much shorter hair.

Now one can think whether (and which one of us) to take it as compliment or not (anyway, I don't see such similarity, Groin)

The pictures appear to be identical. Perhaps Morsul says he looks just like Mr. Carradine because he is...?

Or it's a joke.

Sorry for not being clear. . . Morsul admitted that it was not a photo of him, but insisted that he looked very much like Carradine
