Duncan: "Hey guys, let me take a picture of you."
Chris: "What do you want a picture for Dunc?"
Blair: "Don't look at me Chris. I don't like this either."
Chris: "That darned boat is blocking our escape so let's just awkwardly try to avoid the camera, okay Blair?"
Blair: "He hasn't put it down yet, has he? I'll pretend to be distracted by looking down at that dog poop on the lawn."
Duncan: "It's just a snapshot you guys, come on!"
Chris: "I'll just keep dancin' around,lah dee dah, aw shucks... hey, are those barnacles?"
Duncan: "Hey, I let you guys pull my hair. So...let me take a picture."
On and on it goes...You all know the story. Camera shyness is a contagious, ever-present condition and we must find a cure. Smile today for a photographer, for posterity, and for the cure. For,if not,perhaps, one day you too, could find yourself as the unknowing subject of comical scrutiny. Come on,face the lens, say Cheese,and to Hell with the cholesterol!!
Chris: "Should I keep dancin' Blair?"
Blair: "I guess, but stand up straight Chris for cryin' out loud or you're gonna fall over backwards."
"I'll take what I can get"...sighed a sadly resigned Duncan as he snapped this memento, adding hopefully: "maybe I'll have better luck photographing Eileen, Denise, and Kate."
.... little did he know how right his hopes would prove to be ...
