“For courageous are those who reach Skyward.”

So said Ron Howard at the beginning of Skyward, and as I prepare to write my big post on the movie (it’s coming!) – I thought it would be appropriate to show that I, too, am “courageous”, that I, too, am looking “skyward”. I figured I didn’t want to show myself as a hypocrite right off the bat.

So without further adieu:

PROOF of my seriousness and solidarity with Gilstrap.

Solidarity, hell.

As you will see below, I go much farther than Gilstrap ever could or would.

Watch and learn, Gilstrap, watch and learn.

    Hahahahahaha!! What the hell is going on?? I … I… it’s beyond comprehension. It’s like Maxfield Parrish meets … well, I don’t know who the hell he meets, for God’s sake.

    Your bald head in the top one is making me weep.

    This is completely insane and I love it.

    Watch and learn, Gilstrap, indeed.

    I am laughing so hard right now … amusing myself!! hahaha

    I love how in the last one the expression on my face is kind of like, “Oops. Kinda got more than I bargained for. I appear to be in outer space right now.”

    I learned within one or two shots that if I kept my mouth open the sky would be in my damn mouth.

    I think you eating the sky would be appropriate…. at the end. Or the moon. Ede Noctem!

    I love these! You’re such a knock-out beauty, but somehow even MORE SO with your head in the clouds. : )

  8. red says:

    Well, I don’t know about the knockout beauty part- with those glasses and the uncombed hair – but it sure was fun!

    As a pilot, Cara, and as a pilot in Texas – AND as a hopeless romantic – you would probably love Skyward!

    (Not that you could see it even if you wanted to because as far as I know only two people in the world – myself included – have a copy!)

    You look like the Irish Coolio.

    Been spending most my life,
    Living a Skyward paradise…..

  11. red says:

    “the Irish Coolio”!!!! bwahahahahahaha

    I think I’ll use these photos for my Match.com profile. I think I’ll get a lot of interesting responses. Especially with the second one from the bottom.

    Max Headroom, perhaps?

    The one right before the last one segues perfectly into the last one. Like, “I’m still going up.”

  14. red says:

    Cullen – hahahahaha exactly!! “Uh oh. Still going skyard.”

  15. De says:

    OMG!!!!!!!!11 I am at work and I can’t stop…I am STILL laughing about “Irish Coolio”.
    I have tears!
    If you start rapping with an irish brogue it’s all over for me!
