Of course there are no fat people in these photos. They are of the 25 or 30 
people in the state that get regular exercise. Just imagine what's in the 
stands.

Thanks.  Yes, I think he will enjoy them.  He picked most of them and I
picked a few more.  But, AFAIK, he has yet to see the cropped and
exposure adjusted versions.  I posted them rather late last night and
it's not yet 9 am.  I'm sure the 13 year old is still in bed.  :-)
