Josh Wald: Skateboarder/ Model/Sad Bunny. A few weeks ago one of my fellow groupies at the JW Yahoo! Group site added a very strange picture of Josh to the photo gallery. It was a candid shot of him, obviously taken with an amateur's camera, posed against what looked like a living-room wall. He's wearing a pair of pink, party bunny ears with a very sad and despondent look on his face. I found it disturbing. A picture is worth a thousand words and every sentence in that photo looks painful. Is he sad, lonely, tired, embarrassed,... drunk? Only the photographer and model know for sure. But for the first time I saw Josh as a normal person with normal feelings instead of the gorgeous, problem free, SUPERMODEL I always fantasized him to be. Am I reading too much into the picture? Maybe. But there's something about it that still haunts me so many weeks later.
To view a happier Josh you can go to the photo gallery at the Josh Wald Yahoo! Group site at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/JoshWald/ . --- It just breaks my heart to see him so, so... un-HOPPY.
(Above is the most disturbing Josh pic I have ever seen.)
