No she doesn’t. I had to coordinate SEVEN people, two of whom came all the way from Canada, handletter seven signs with a REEKING Magic Marker, line up the photo, trade lenses with Lindsey so I’d have a wide angle lens, set up the tripod and attach the camera, take several test shots to the dismay of participants standing in line and being blinded, upload the photos, choose a shot in which everyone’s eyes were open and the signs were readable, crop it, and post it to LJ. I do NOT buy into the idea that Marika can present her effort as superior to mine just because she could sit at a keyboard, type in a dozen exclamation points on Lisa’s FB wall after I wished her a happy birthday, and disparage me for using a single grammatically correct ONE exclamation point.
I will correct myself. ‘Nathan, you (Gary), and Ricker used the grammatically correct one exclamation mark. I used four. Four happy little exclamation marks that I innocently sent to Lisa in a birthday greeting. Then MARIKA, the New Orleans Queen of Mean, belittled my message with her ten thousand exclamation points. Or however many this:
She does not have a point … I have a point, in fact I have several !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I should come back and read these things … first, let’s not act like a Magic Marker high isn’t the best thing ever. Secondly, this was NOT about Lisa’s birthday and well wishes, this was about showing me and my birthday exclamations up … my exclamations were heartfelt as well as more numerous then yours. I was innocently pointing that out.
Great photo!
Thanks!
It’s not a contest, kids…. ok, who am I kidding?
Marika started it. And don’t threaten to pull this LJ over.
Thank you for giving me the first laugh of the morning.
You’re welcome. =)
Win? I think not … It took 7 people to pull that off … I’m just one.
She has a point, Becky. =0)

Ha Ha Ha
Who’s Lisa?
When is your birthday again, David? I have some piranha teeth and a deer leg to send you.
Ohhhhh…THAT Lisa.
Never heard of her.
Good luck with that, Pegs.
If ‘Nathan’s sign had said BONES I would have gotten it right away.
Watch your back, David. She lives in the midwest. There’s lots of hunters, thus animal carcasses available.
Hahahaha!
You guys all rock!
I’d say I’d give you each a big smooch, but I have a nasty cold right now.
I hope your cold gets better soon, and I’m sure the rest of your fan club agrees.
