The Great Unmasking

I recently posted two entries (Guess Who? and Guess Who #2?) with pictures from my university's newspaper, only I masked the faces of certain people using the really high-tech method of covering them with solid yellow ovals using the Paint program. Today, their secret identities will be revealed (drum roll please).

Picture #1


If you guessed Tim and Leslie, you were correct. Give yourself a pat on the back. Thanks for being such great sports Tim and Leslie.

Picture #2


Our friend Charity guessed correctly - it's yours truly. Great job! Have Marc babysit the girls for an afternoon as a reward while you do whatever you want. She was also the only one who entered a guess, though my mom knew but declined to answer due to having insider information. Based on the clothing worn, it must be cool weather and I would betcha that I'm wearing long johns (see bullet number 2 in the post 5 Weird Things About Me). Also, for those who went to school with me, the guy in the background over the girl's shoulder reminds me of Nathan N. Does anyone else think so?

Guess Who #2?

The first Guess Who? post has been such a hit, I thought I would post another one with the only other clipping I found from my university newspaper (that means this is the last one of these clippings you will see). It's not as fun as the other one, which is why I did the other one initially.
Who do you think the mystery person is?




I will post the official "unmask" photo at the same time I do the other one.

Guess Who?

This is a guessing game for those of you who went to university with my wife and me. I was rummaging around about a week ago and came across an old picture clipped from our university newspaper. It is of a couple of friends of ours performing on stage. I've scanned in the picture but I've masked their faces. Can you guess who they are?



Leave me a comment with your guesses. Use first names only please. In a week or so I will post the "unmasked" picture and reveal the identities (again, first names only). To these two, I hope you'll forgive me for doing this but the picture was too good to resist.

Crossing My Fingers

I've always been one who loves free stuff. I'm cheap, ahem, I mean frugal.

My wife put me onto this contest. Best Buy and 5 Minutes for Mom are joining forces to give away a Insignia® 37" Flat-Panel LCD HDTV. See the contest page here.

Here's hoping I win :).
