All my life I have been told that imitation is the greatest form of flattery. Well, today on twitter KnoxYankee asked me if I noticed a copycat. I then realized that the picture that I have used since the
Summer of 2010 has me pointing at the camera. The picture was taken while I was working with the Zach Wamp for Governor campaign. We had completed a successful event at the Blount Co GOP Headquarters. My buddy GrassrootTroopr was in the parking lot at the time. We were headed over to the Blount County Courthouse. Dan “da man” Andrews was assigned to photograph the campaign. He captured the photograph and I began using it as my twitter avatar.

I would like to critique the Mayor-Elect. First of all as in our photographs, I use the right hand and point right. You use your left hand and point left. I think this probably is just our political leanings. However, when you point to camera you do not have to point so high, the effect is better to be straight out and not up and out.

“You use your left hand and point left. I think this probably is just our political leanings. However, when you point to camera you do not have to point so high, the effect is better to be straight out and not up and out.”
That is funny. I'm still laughing. I need to get Dan the Man to take my picture pointing.
