Good morning, everyone!

This is the start of the new series - Man of the Blogosphere™. I haven't decided what the frequency of this particular series will be yet. It won't be daily but it will probably be more frequent than weekly. Somewhere in between, I guess. Most likely, when I have the most time in the mornings before work.

For the very first MOTB entry, I will start with Mitch, who sent me two pictures. Imagine my delight when I opened up my very first MOTB submission and there's a TIGER in it!! My all-time favorite wild animal. Excellent!

So here ya go - this is Mitch from www.docsblog.com. (You already heard about the tiger, the second picture is him with his grandmother. Nice!)

Great start! That picture with the tiger is awesome! Congrats to Mitch for being the very first MOTB!

Great pics, Mitch! Awesome first MOTB entry.

Howdy :)

This is Mitch. Wow, the tiger got a lot of response

No, he's not an apartment tiger. He was part of a World Wildlife Foundation fund-raising drive. For a small donation, you got to sit with the tiger "kitten" a feed him. I just couldn't pass it up! I blogged the encounter here.

The shirt in the other picture is one of my favorites. It's a pair of dragons, cavorting in a lake of flames. There was a matching water dragon shirt, but they were pricey, and I put off buying it. I never saw it again The shirt tag for these series (I have others) are "MT:2". I've never found them on the web. If they have a web presence, and someone finds it, please let me know.

Finally, thanks for selecting me, and thanks to you viewers for the wonderful comments! I only get compliments from my wife, and she's biased My grandmother usually sticks with "WHEN are you going to shave that THING off your face?!?!?!?!"

Talk to you later!

Whew! Great to know Mitch! Who wouldn't want to pet a baby tiger? Just hate see baby tigers as pets.

comment by Nanc' @ 10:15 AM on 08.11.04 [link]

If I can be so bold as to throw my picture, dated as it may be, up for MOTB. That way I'll get some hits from people looking at my picture rather than the ones looking at my wife.
