Knocking Nokie..

It would make for a great photo of the day (or photo of the century) If I could play like he does, I'd always have a s#*t eating grin instead of that "just bit into a lemon look" Top

One smirk (middle) and 2 showing teeth (top and bottom) I LOVE this site. Ask and ye shall receive. Now I humbly ask one more favor..I have some photos of a Ventures concert from October of 2006 in Las Vegas. I drove from Rapid City, S.D. to see a one night only performance. I'd like to share some photos from this milestone in my life but when I try to upload a pic for my avatar or anything else, I can't because of pixel size. How can I reduce a 4x6 photo and share with everyone? Top

He was born Nole Edwards in 1935 in Lahoma, Oklahoma, hence the nickname, "Nokie" which was given to him by his father, Elbert. Nokieâs mother, Nannie, was a Native American Cherokee, and Nokie is proud of his Cherokee heritage. " ~B~ Top
