Good morning folks!

I vividly remember as a kid I was shy and introverted at one school in 2nd grade. All year I had no friends and I hated it. As we were moving to the new house and of course a new school I remember sitting in the back seat of the car and saying to myself that shy is stupid! The first day of 3rd grade school at recess I walked up to a group of boys and said Hi, I am Glen the new kid. What do you guys do for fun? No one knew I was the shy kid and I reformed myself that day.

My mom even commented that year that I suddenly had a lot of friends this year. I learned long long ago how to talk to strangers. I can go to parties where I don't know anyone and fit right in.

I guess I am a reformed former introvert.

Years ago we had a big photo job to shoot pictures at a big golf tournament. Picture after picture of group shots gets REAL boring. They were going to sow the pictures at the big banquet that night. Now this was LONG LONG before digital photography. We shot 35 mm slides and since we had a processor within an hour we had slides to project. My boss was embarrassed for me at first but he saw I did not care and he relaxed.

To inject some humor and break up the series of boring photos of the golfers I dressed up in a really goofy golfers outfit we got at a costume shop. We went all over the golf course the day before the tournament and shot pictures of me in the costume doing wacky things. They we went to lunch with me wearing the costume.
