What Dwarf looks like.

^ that’s almost exactly how I pictured him.

That Arnie story is great! Meeting Arnie would be cool now, I can’t imagine how it must’ve felt age 15

The Mayor! I love that show!

Remember the episode where the Mayor was in his office, and he put a CD onto his old turntable and all you heard was an awful scratching sound?! Then the Mayor says, “This techno music is dope!”

LMFAO!

Yeah, briefly. I’ve told that story here before, but I’ll retell it.

Back in '78 I attended one of George Snyder’s “Mr World” shows. Arnold had been retired from competition, but was slated to be the emcee that night.

Days before the show, I made an oil painting of Arnold with the intention that I’d trade the painting for an autograph if I could somehow get to Arnold (such grand schemes for the fifteen year old newb that I was).

Toward the end of the long show, I made my way to the foot of the stage… painting in one hand, program book and pen in the other. Arnold was just finishing up an announcement and started to head backstage when I called out his name. He turned around, looked down from the stage at me holding the painting up for him to see, and came to the edge of the stage. I was exhilarated!

I told him he could have the painting I made for him if he just signs my program book. He misunderstood me and took the painting and the pen and proceeded to sign the painting! I tried to explain again what I wanted, but someone backstage was calling him away. He looked at me and said, “I’ll be back” (I kid you not), then disappeared behind the curtains. I waited for a few minutes, but then an usher angrily told me to return to my seat (almost halfway back in the theater).

Back in my seat, I was bummed out that it didn’t go as planned, but the friends I came to the show with were ecstatic! I got to see the KING up close, and he signed my painting! Back home my dad was impressed. At school nobody could care less except for the handful of kids “in the know”.

My mom still has that painting at her house (the ink has faded a bit, but it’s still Arnold’s recognizable handwriting). She was wondering how much it would sell for on E-bay. lol [/quote]
IMO, that’s at least as cool as what you’d intended.

Cool story bro. I mean it.

Just liked your FB page, ID. Awesome stuff there. How long have you been drawing?

Since I was 2.

My dad tells me a funny story for which I have no recollection.

One day, as a small boy, I handed my dad a pencil and paper and asked him to draw me a picture of a horse (my dad is not an artist). He drew the picture and handed it to me. I replied, “That doesn’t look like a horse! I can draw better than that!” And I showed him. He said my horse was indeed better.

lol
