The Wall
He will go toe to toe with the biggest defensive lineman, and if necessary body slam them to the ground. He tries to be gentle but thats like trying to put a full Level 5 Hurricane in a ketchup bottle. Things just get ugly real fast if you try to take him on.
After decimating opponents he will generally walk humbly away. As pictured here, this appears to be the case. Unfortunately his superhuman hitting ability is a bit overwhelming.
It reminds me a bit of many of the scenes from the original Incredible Hulk when the Hulk would Hulk Out and pretty much obliterate anyone in his path.
He managed to get a bit of a handsome break during half-time and as you can see here managed to put on the football hero look. I did notice the cheerleaders giving him the eye as he walked by.
I must say, seeing that big “McKenna” on his jersey was a big source of pride since we have always been more folksy soccer folk and the like and not the manly man type like Geno.
If you want to check out the gallery of the kid that NFL scouts refer to as “The Wall” or as “Roach” because he never says die check out his gallery here – Geno is The Wall.

This is a flying chicken
I could not believe my eyes when I saw this chicken flying over the water yesterday. A chicken flying over the sea. Amazing.
A Visit to Hot Tropical Florida
If you have never been to Florida in August you might be in for a surprise at what you find. It’s generally about 100 degrees and near 100% humidity. Thats a recipe for super muggy and stormy weather. I just had an afternoon and morning to shoot some shots but you can check out the full gallery here if you like – Florida.
A single palm tree beckons you to the water.
5 Palm Trees are friends in a beautiful place.
Two ladies watch the sunset at St Pete’s Beach.
3 boys wade in the water as the amazing sunset happens in the distance
This is not a castle, it is a hotel.
The sky was simply amazing there. This was the color all around.
Beautiful neighborhoods in Tampa were very influenced by the Cuban Culture. This is Ybor City.
This was a beautiful mural of Tampa that I really liked.
Florida is full of vibrant bright colors everywhere
This is an olden hotel that looks straight out of 1950.
The Charming Town of Wilson
I like to bring my camera with me when I travel. I had a chance to visit a very charming little city in North Carolina called Wilson. It is not the first time I have been there but the second time and it is quite a charming little place.
You can check out the gallery of some pictures I took on a Sunday afternoon as I meandered down the streets of this city – North Carolina.
On a sleepy Sunday, the Churches were the only place people were going.
This mall was all but abandoned. This bus carried in migrant workers who seemed to be the only people shopping at the mall that day.
Bob’s Burger is cool but apparently the hamburgers were not good according to locals
The Liberty Warehouse is a throwback to times when Tobacco was dried all over the town in large warehouses. They are mostly gone now.
A man rides a scooter on a hot day. He was the only person I saw for a long while.
This was a beautiful little set of shops in the city. It seemed to be a step back in time.
These birds soared when I clapped my hands. They settled back down after I left.
This man cruised slowly down the boulevard. His muffler was quite loud and he stared at me as he passed.
The abandoned mall seemed sad. Citibank is boarded up and you cannot get in.
While I do not know if this is a good or bad hotel, I can recommend that you not swim in their pool if you stay there.
