Dan, you're not using your imagination. Remember that PUG themes are always liberally interpreted. Personally, I've always thought that many of the more interesting submissions each month are those that "stretch the theme", as it were.
I could be the butt of someone's joke. Someone could get a shot of one of my used cigarettes (terrible habit, but I do smoke) A shot of the butt end of my hockey stick (it's federal law that all Canadian males own at least one - kind of like firearms in the US <g>). When referring to a hockey stick, it's a verb, too, as in "he butt ended me in the face". Someone (like Dave B.) could butt end me in the face, while another (like Dave C-C) can photograph it. There you go, three examples in only a few minutes. See how easy it is, Dan? As far as the logistics, I think it would be easier if I travelled around, and made myself available to PUGsters. That way, (as you said) we wouldn't have to get the guides and dog sled teams for each and every PUGster who treks up here. And think how interesting a PUG that would be: "here's frank's butt in the Alps, here it is in the Outback, here it is along the Ganges, on the Thames, etc..." I think it would be stunning!! So grab a camera, and get out there and shoot my butt - just don't get that one mixed up, please! <vbg> ciao, frank Dan Scott wrote: > Dave, > > While I'm sure Frank's butt is nice, you have to ask yourself, "Does > Frank's butt have staying power?".
