I did not take this photo. The Swiss soldier getting his head cut off is my father. This is NOT real. My father has always liked doing crazy things. He went camping in the Brazilian jungle this year and he's 86. Do you have pictures of your crazy relatives? Or are you crazy yourself?

I'm pretty sure I have a fut nuts in the family, but perhaps I am not the best one to judge... ;] Wacky shot!

Fut nuts?Huh? Wow!Camping in the Brazilian jungle at 86????Sounds pretty impressive to me! Yeah.I got one nut in particular,lol.(My mom-in-law). But unfortunately she's not the funny kind.LOL. Think Marie,(Ray's mom) on Everyone Loves Raymond...with a fair amount of insanity thrown in for good measure,...and you start to get the picture,lol. ;^)
