I have wondered over the last couple years whether Dave Beedon and Joe Tripod might actually be the same person. I have never seen them together in a photo. Well, here is proof that they are indeed two separate entities. I guarantee this photo has not seen photoshop except for a little cropping. I wouldn't think of altering the true content of a photo.
Impersonating the valued photographic assistant of an agent is [CENSORED] and has caused some errant agents to have their Internet connections changed to dial-up---on a party line. Galactic HQ knows my reputation; the direction you get will probably be "unsympathetic with prejudice." Sorry, gotta go---Moab calls.

I guess I am offended to be accidentally mistaken for the low level agent standing at the right in this photo. In all my years of training at the academy and while training this agent in the field for years, I have to say I have never met such a buffoon. He has this attraction for Utah, sandstone and fins. Jeez, it is hard to keep him on task protecting our interests in Notner. He spends most of the day staring at a computer screen, looking at maps, pining for the fjords and watching critters from his back porch. I have recommended that he be given light duty for a couple months. You know, something like staring at a computer screen, looking at maps, pining for the fjords and watching critters from his back porch. I am awaiting direction from galactic HQ.

Man, you have been duped. That guy does not look reliable at all, even though he is using a Nikon. My advice is to not believe a word he says, especially if he pontificates about "Joe Tripod"---a sure sign of instability. Numerous studies have shown that only nutcases put a neck cord on their eyeglasses; the standard (and very clever) cover story is that without the cord they misplace their glasses. Don't fall for that ruse. Continued association with this person will probably lead to painful social consequences. I must remain anonymous out of fear of retribution.
