What better way to celebrate a friend's birthday than with a photo that really celebrates his personality. I give you Beltzner with hat and bear, mid-care:
Also recorded that afternoon, Mike and Tyla demonstrate "repositioning of unwilling participant from back to shoulders in five moves":
You'll really want to review the full-sized version [pop-up window].
And the final glorious result:
I can't stop laughing at Matej's image in the background of the Mike-and-Tyla series, as it looks like he's just standing around and then gets totally bagged in the gut with a basketball that comes from nowhere.
As for my picture: Matej's right; I make that "mugging" expression pretty often when a camera's on me. And thank god that hat hides the rapidly receeding hairline!

As to the pictures of my family members ... a couple of years ago I suggested they enter a contest in Finland for which they seem to have been training. So far they've ignored me, but maybe the rest of the gang can garner some encouragement in this direction. Just plain badgering might work too - eventually.
Check it out and let me know what you think.
