RF Scrapbook

[Krish]

Let's see if this thing works!!

So last week, I added an old RF buddy of mine (Reed - "reedman") on facebook who both of us have been members and friends here on RF forever and he said he had to really sit there and try and figure out who the heck this guy was who was adding him until eventually he figured it out :doh: :lol:. The funny thing is, I've even had people think I was a girl here (thank you Sid!! :smash: ). Well, many moons ago, John (jlehigh) started a "who are you here is me" thread where RF members posted pics of themselves. The sad thing is I bet half of the members here have never even seen the thread (unless I occasionally bumped it) much less know who John even is as we are having new members sign up here everday so I thought it was time to fire up a new thread where we can post pictures of ourselves so we can know exactly who we are talking to on the other end of the screen. In addition to that, I figured we could extend it even further to include anything you wanted related to your life that you have going on not reef related. You have a new additon to the family, new car and wanted to share, post it here. You get a new tattoo and want to share, post it here...Whatever! This will be our little scrap book of the life of the RF members.

Anyways, I thought it would be cool. :loco: I'll go first with a few pictures of myself and my family. Hope to see some more faces to go with names!

If you see this face adding you on facebook, it is me LOL!





Some may have seen these, but here is a family shot taken towards the end of 2010 of my wife Christina, daughter Emily, son Spencer and myself and yes, they are both MY kids. One just takes after me and the other my wife. Some crazy stuff!!!







A few more of the kiddies

Emily





Emily (4yrs old) and Spencer (14 months old now). This picture really blows me away everytime I look at it because of how different the two are!!






And for now, that picture you see in my avitar was taken by me right here in the Bahamas while out to the beach and not borrowed off of the net. The water really is that nice here!

Here's my family. My real name is Ben, my girlfriend Melissa, and our beautiful daughter Elizabeth "lizzy".

My 2 dogs. Gollum is an American Staffordshire Terrier "pitbull", and Chef is a German Shepard and Shar-pei mix.

My new ride I got a couple weeks ago. It's a 1966 Chevy Caprice, with 31K origional miles, and all the origional matching numbers parts. 327 motor, automatic 2 speed powerglide tranny, power windows and seat, and even factory AC!

Now that is a sweet ride!

Now that is a sweet ride!

I agree!! Man that is in good shape!! Ben, I wondered if that was you when I saw your profile on facebook, but wasn't sure so I didn't add you . You have a beautiful family! Didn't realize you had a child! Soon time to get married

Oh, BTW Ben cool "pitty"! Been waiting patiently to get mine! I love dogs!!! My cousin breeds them here. Actually he is affiliated with Down south kennels and owns manslaughter kennels. Here is one of his american staffordshire terrier's Segal. He was the runt of the litter and survived "pavo" (sp) that someone brought into his yard that took the whole litter except this dog. Beautiful temperment like you can't imagine! All of his dogs are calm and friendly which is how he rases them. My cousin also does the majority of scheduled breeding's here where he actually gets in there and hooks up the dogs. Pretty insane stuff!! Anyway, here is Segal at almost a year old. I want to get a puppy out of Segal's next litter. He has a great bloodline. His mother was actually bigger than him which you typically don't see in dogs.

Yea, we are just trying to take care of some issues so we can be debt free when we get married. We both had massive medical bills to take care of first.

He is pretty! I love pitbulls, they are the best dogs ever if raised properly. Gollum has had lots of puppies with several females, and most of his puppies end up giant monsters! He is actually going to breed tomorrow, and it might be his last time ever. He is about 8 years old, and is starting to get pretty fat and gray.

Here is his first born son Taz who belongs to my mother.

Here's a few pictures to share. My name is Shane and my wife, pictured with me below, is Claire.

Here is our Boxer Rocky.

Here he is with my buddies boxer puppy last year being a good boy with the wee one.

Here is my latest purchase of note. It is a 2011 Harley Davidson Dyna Glide Street Bob. I changed some minor things like the seat and added a quick release sissy bar for traveling.

Brie, that second photo of you and the horse looks like a painting or something out of the movies!! Pretty sick!!

This took me by surprise and really put a smile on my face. A lady (Sara Lazio) visits Nassau every year or so for about a week to take professional family pictures. Well, she has her own blog and she did a write up on our family that she sent us the link to. It is so good to know that you make a good impression on people sometimes.
