    Hey, 'Sup Everybody?

    Hello,

    I am a Photographaholic.

    {And you guys say, "Hello Racer!"}

    Then I say some other dopey stuff, then we all drink lots of coffee, smoke cigarettes (ugh! nasty habit!), and tell lies to each other.

    Anyway, I am an amateur photographer, among other things. One thing for sure, I am a professional at living. Been doing it a very long time.

    So I am interested in the "Large Format" side of photography (always have been, but the internet didn't exist way back when . . . . .), and I stumbled on this forum, and, well, forums seem to be the fashionable thing these days on the internet.

    Hopefully I can learn more about this side of photography, and maybe even get into it some, that is provided Mrs. Racer doesn't find out I am spending money on it.

    So Cheers!
    Racer

    Hello Racer X, How's Chim Chim?

    Welcome to the forum. If Mrs. Racer finds out just remind her of all the precious memories that you are going to preserve with your photography!

    Hi Racer X,

    Luckily we talk about Speed Graphics instead of Speed Racer. He still doesn't know that you are his brother, right?

    About Mrs. Racer X – that’s Trixie, right?

    Didn’t you steal her from Speed?

    Trixie or not, just say you’ll make her look young and cute again with your LF portraits...

    Go ahead, paint yourself into a corner, as she says: "What do you mean again?"

    And that would be inconsistent with "professional at living."

    Nope. It has been difficult, but I've managed to keep it a secret for all these years. Of course the writers got my back to!

    Nope. I'm still playin' the field. Here I am on the set of Smokey and the Bandit. I did the stunt driving and had lots of fun with Sally Field.

    On and off the set. I still see her every once in a while. Good times, for sure.



    Oh yeah!

    That's right!

    Like the BTO song, Takin' Care of Business.
