Why the funny name – outofnapkins ?

      Many years ago, a friend and I bought some guitars and wanted to start a band.  We were constantly kicking around names and while sitting in a resturaunt one morning we saw (you guessed it) an empty napkin dispenser. Although we never did agree on a band name, I took the name outofnapkins for an email address and boy it stuck.  I would run into people that I hadn’t seen in years and they would still remember my email address.  Moving forward with that concept, I registered the domain name “outofnapkins.com”.  After trying out many different uses for the site I have decided to make it the “Photography Site with the Funny Name”.  Welcome to outofnapkins.com

(by the way, we never did start that band and I have given the guitars to my kids).
