My son subscribes to that mag. I looked not an hour ago and thought that picture looked familiar. The Wayne bit confirmed it.
Congratulations.

pardon my French, but fuck me that's a good shot. I'd forgotten just how good. When I first saw it I thought it was cool and seeing it again just brings it back.

Congratulations Wayned, well deserved mate.
