I love how you used the word Meld Greg. You can always spot a real Trekie by his/her lingo.

| | This is something completely different, but if you want something really off-the-wall, what about putting his head on a super model's (female) body?

| | | It's not that off the wall Ed. I put my sister's head on Pam Anderson's body for her 40 and Fabulous picture. I thought I'd tackle his a little differently.
I'm just digging a picture up to work with.

| | Basil reminds me of Christopher Dean, the figure skater/coach.
I did find a pic around the net (Google, images, bodybuilding) which had the general posture of Basil's pic. It is black and white and out of focus, but it may be fun to see anyway. I'm sure my efforts can be vastly improvbed by others, but...
With a full front face, there are many male bodybuilding pics around. Good luck on your project.
The picture was found at: http://www.haywired.com/bodybuilding/home.html |

| | | Yes... I'm having fun! First bit of fun I've had in awhile...
Great suggestions and I love what you and Bob have done so far!
It's been tough for me to get on the band wagon and organize something for his 50th. I'm in the middle of a 3 week intense radiation.... and will be doing my last week of radiation during his 50th. The Power Point will take up a ton of my time - but I know he'll treasure it.
Thanks all for the suggestions and help.
