Credentials? Who wants to know?

One of our kind readers sent us this picture with a caption taken from an older version of the HH website. The reader questions whether Solomon has the proper credentials to refer to himself as a "historian and archaeologist" (note the absence of the key qualifier "amateur"). Considering that Solomon and his HH colleagues relentlessly question and criticize the credentials of Odyssey's staff archaeologists and historical researchers, we think this a completely legitimate question.

To our understanding, Solomon is an ex-TV producer. Of course, if he would like to send us his CV to counter our skepticism, or prove us wrong, we'd be happy to publish his credentials and humbly recant.

(Note we erased Solomon's real name, because, well, we're just nice like that.)

However, since we're a whore for polls, we must point out that, as of now, the numbers overwhelmingly confirm that Solomon is indeed one goofy-looking fellow. We mean that in the nicest way, of course.

UPDATE: One of our readers just suggested we run a caption-writing contest for the above picture of Solomon. And since the photo obviously lends itself well to that sort of thing, we think this is a boffo idea. Submit your captions now and the winner will win their very own "trailer trash" t-shirt chosen by the HH folks to represent HH Watch. Have fun with it!

Well,I think "MontyPython and the Holy Grail" is an excellent place to find quotes for Solomen's Photo.
"Seen here,measuring the airspeed of the African Swallow" or Any of the scenes with the French soldiers taunting the "English Gits" Just a thought!
