Introducing my new assistant, Mike. In some ways he is great: He can hold a pose for as long as I ask, and he doesn't talk back. On the downside he is a bit thick: He can't make coffee worth a damn, and, he refuses to do silver maintenance. However, recognize he is still wet behind the ears (just coming from a swim, quite literally -Silver Salts on Albumen) and might be trainable with work.
