For dinner tonight we are having something new and special.

I like a good hiney too. Hineys are tied for 1st place for all the other great parts women have.
.Like eyes.
Can't argue with that......Shelby had all the right "other parts" but it was her eyes that made her magnificent!


She was so lovely....


...and had the most unique cameltoe!


Fun little puppy too!

Very true Jim. If I could like your post 69 times I would.
That's the right number for real "Hiney Men"!

Makes sense, as Scotland is the place where men wear skirts, torture cats, eat sheep guts, drink iron girders, own shaggy cows, and talk funny, right?


IrnBru is quite good as an occasional soft drink. Tastes very similar to a red coloured one in Australia. I think the Australian one is Creaming Soda.

Ah, but that URL is wrong. It should be h++p://photobucket.com/ransom

(Actually, there seems to be a user by that name - I guess that's why they couldn't use that link as they should...)

Is that your hat back before the possums chewed on it?
Does Mrs R know you've seen Shelby's bare cameltoe?
Inquiring minds want to know.

When Mrs Rupert first saw that in Shelby's album, long ago, she inquired about the "cameltoe?" I tried to explain it to her, but she never "got it". She just said it was stupid...that men were stupid....I didn't argue with her.

When I first met Shelby she was so shy.....but after a few modeling sessions she got really good at posing and relaxing and just having fun. She would come over one or two days a week to my little studio and we would spend all day having fun and eating pizza/hotwings. I've told her story before...it was a sad story.....she had so much potential. Like many her age, she could not resist the lure of the "quick fix" ....the one that destroys your life.

She came a long way from that Convenience Store clerk to getting her Beauticians license.....I helped her all I could, Mrs Rupert did too. Sometimes your best efforts still won't guarantee success.


So many fun times....




We ate tons of pizza!


Regards!

Real sad when people do things that result in throwing away their life. So different to living well and life coming to an end when there is nothing to regret.

The skirt I never tried, the cat torture I had to google, the sheep guts I only tried months before I left and it was DE-LIC-IOUS (or maybe it was just the girl that invited me?), the iron girders are crispy, the highland cattle are so hardy they've exported them to the Arctic and they do very well there, and the talking funny bit - yes, they do. Especially in Dundee, where people say "Twa pehs, twa plehn bridies an'an'inyin'in'an'a." and mean "Two pies, two plain bridies, and an onion bridie."

In the cities it's a funny place, in the pubs a cozy one, and in the Highlands a magical and beautiful one.

That stuff's nasty. Had it once, never again! We have a guy in my former university's hiking, mountaineering and climbing club who doesn't drink any alcohol, but often goes through five cans of Irn Bru on a pub night. He'd bring dozens with him for weekend trips to huts, if access allowed for it. The only time he ever refused one was when a lovely Slovenian exchange student tried to bribe her way into a booked-out trip. I took a hilarious picture of him, can of Irn Bru hovering under his nose, his eyes saying 'YES!', his arm extended in refusal, and everyone staring at him or into the camera with utter disbelief in their eyes, mouths gaping. It was a historic moment!

Well, you might see from my profile pic, but I play the bagpipes and wear my kilt. Haggis is awesome, and I've made some myself. I want some Heilan' Coos as they are well sorted to our climate, in fact our neighbour has some. And my friends can comment on my wee accent and various words I use.

I fully agree that the Highlands are magical:

It is a long story...too long for this thread, but it is truly a heart-breaker. I considered her like a granddaughter and treated her accordingly. She never took unfair advantage of it, she loved me and Mrs Rupert as we did her. Her life was a study in how a bad environment can limit your chances and instill self-doubt and a lack of self assurance.
She had almost turned the corner, it was so close...or maybe not? All I know is she didn't make the turn.

I have seen drugs ruin so many lives full of promise and full of opportunity. I have also felt the helplessness of watching those lives go down in flames despite the best efforts of those that care.

I worked with a lot of young girls through my photography/little studio.....I do feel like I made a difference in some of those lives....even with Shelby, she will never forget that there is another way to go...even if she never takes it. Maybe she will end up as a good lesson in life for someone else?

When the opportunity arises to help someone up the ladder, you take it. Sometimes the result is a joy to be cherished...sometimes a heart-breaker, but it is never a waste of your time if you are sincere and truly care.

Regards!

One volunteers their computing resources to a cause. My liquid cooled i7 6700k and the GTX970 went at it over-nite. Interesting to see my next utility bill.
