->> Hey all - I just wanted to let everyone know that Thomas Witte is getting married this coming Saturday and I'm the lucky shooter. Please wish me luck, as I have wedding experience, but I've never shot a fellow photog. This will either be really, really awesome, or a disaster. Giggle.
I promise to share all the good FunPix with you all!
Jody
Sorry Tommy - I couldn't resist! |

->> Thomas, I don't think it's a good idea to threaten your wedding photographer six days before your wedding...

->> David,
How ironic, I just bought those same items but not from B&H, but I think there was a B and an H on the van's license plate. |

He's in Ohio near Kentucky. Isn't that nearly the same as West Virginia?

->> Congratulations, Thomas.
And good luck Jody, although you don't need it.
Have you ever been to Ohio?
Oct is a great month for a wedding. My anniversary is just a few days after Thomas' wedding so it will be back from Rochester and off for a few days of R&R with my cuter other half. |

Rob, I told you I don't beg. It's going to be a kick too. Too bad you're missing out!

->> For the record - my first question to Thomas when he told me the date was "What kind of sports photographer gets married in the middle of football season?!?!"
Must be true love (even though he's shooting Monday Night Football two days after his wedding).

->> I hate you all - but thank you none-the-less. :)
Utterback gets the award for the best one liner so far.
Baron- Believe it or not, no Guinness because it doesn't go with the theme. Great Lakes Burning River and Ommegang Witte will be on tap though to represent both sides.
Harpe & Brice- The break in has been a great distraction. I haven't choked on vomit thinking about the wedding since it happened.
Benson- I've got enough FF miles if you change your mind, but you'll probably be seated in steerage.
Look- Long story but at least I'm shooting MNF. I'm actually more sad that I'm missing being on black team for Eddie Adams. Make me proud black team!
Fish- Isn't New Haven kind of like douchebagville?
Everyone else, thank you. I was trying to keep this under wraps but my wedding photographer decided to play a prank on me. |

It's actually Jackassville. Luckily, I don't actually live in New Haven :0) |

->> Thomas, let's cut to the chase: Here's all you need to say to have a long marriage:
SAY:
"Yes dear, whatever you want". Repeat it three times and get used to saying it.
Congrats to you Witt, dude. How the heck did you actually talk the poor woman into it?

who celebrated 30 years early this spring..... |

->> First,
Congtats Thomas. Marriage is wonderful.
Now the Deep Thought. Same sex marriage? It'll take 15 years or so, but eventually all marriages are same sex. C'mon darling, it's Saturday night.... |

->> Hmmm...
One word of advice, married man to (future) married man...if you don't like what your wife says, don't try to end the argument with "...I promise you, this is my last. The idiocy has reached unfathomable levels now. I'm sorry, but I have one last thing to say..."
Only SHE gets to end arguments that way. |

| ->> Michael - as much as "Yes dear, whatever you want". helps, I've always found (for 28+ years) that "You're right, I'm sorry dear" is more important. |

Any truth to the rumor that this is a "work for hire" and Witte is demanding the copyrights?
Looking forward to the "Fun Pix". |

->> First, congrats Thomas!
Second, remember that the man ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS gets the last word in every argument.
Married men, say it with me, "Yes, dear." |

->> Thanks Dirk and everyone who chimed in. I know this weekend will be awesome. I'm nervous now which is a good sign (I do my best work when I'm nervous before a shoot). Once I start shooting, instinct takes over and it just flows.
I'm excited to get there and hope I get a bunch of funpix to share with you all!

->> I used to know a shooter from Cincinatti named Witte...had these wierd-shaped green stickers all over his lenses. Used to amble on up to Columbus every now and again for hockey or soccer. We don't see him any more.
(Congrats, mang). |
