Photoshop and Your Pal

A couple of years ago friends of ours invited my wife and I to travel with them to Freeport in the Bahamas to be a witness to their marriage. They got married by a justice of the peace in the town hall. The ceremony was very low key, as they were married in shorts and a tee shirt.

When we got back to Maine,I decided that I would use my photoshop skills to make them a couple of tradition wedding day photos with their likeness. So I used my mother-in-laws wedding photo for one of the pictures and asked a friend if I could use a photo of her mothers wedding as well. It was a photo of her mother and father and her grand parents. I was going to replace her families heads with our friends,who just got married,and with my wife and myself.

So I did the deed and I decided that I would give my friend her picture back but I would put my head in place of her grandmothers. She had had the picture in her living room for years and I thought that she would notice it right a way. So I returned her picture and placed it where it had been, in her living room and off I went. Well it took about 2 months before her husband noticed it and called me that second, laughing like hyenas.

Never a dull moment around your pal.

Smoking


The picture is of my brothers and I at a wedding. After we all had a couple of drinks, someone passed out cigars to everyone who wanted one. Naturally we all took them. Neither my brothers and I smoked, but we all liked using it as a prop. You can see from the picture that it looks like we had been cigar smokers all of our lives. With cigar in hand we engaged everyone at the wedding in conversation using the cigar to make many points. I bet those people really loved that. It was a fun wedding, and after it was over, all of our wives wanted nothing to do with us because we all smelled like a 100 foot cigar, which really makes your breath so not appealing. My wife asked me if I had eaten, by mistake, a decomposing skunk. My wife is not very funny.
