I Met A True Legend Last Week! (The Steelerfan65 Edition)!!!!
So I am at work deep into some complex problems when I get a random phone call from the boss asking me to meet him at an undisclosed location to discuss my TRF membership…
 I'm thinking what the heck did I do now?   After a quick shift around on some meetings I had lined up in the office, I then proceed to this undisclosed location…  When I get there I am bear hugged and almost ambushed thinking, what they heck did I get myself into!  I'm on the floor, look up and see AP stars!

That's a great shot of the AP, but the 1655 is the one I keep staring at. Lovely duo.

Glad to see that Duomètre on your wrist!
As for who's Ken, I think he sells some swords somewhere in the USA...

Thank you everyone! I am just glad to have been able to share a few pics with you all, Steelerfan65 and I have been talking for years so it was only a matter of time before we met.
I'm just glad he doesn't mind my late night questions to him when I have lingering professional questions! Quote:

Nice thread Sam, and happy you got to meet another fantastic member in Ken! Great pics and references as well mate. Especially love this pic with the reflection of the Tudor shield off the crown onto the back of your hand!!  Lucky shot, but a great pic!
