I received the following email this morning:

If your models need a trianer Im the one , [name and email address removed]

I'm worried because I don't know what a trianer is, and my photos might be suffering because I don't use one.

Can someone please help me with what to look for when selecting a trianer.

Thanks in advance!

uh,..., without seeing the context of the message it's kind of a guessing game ...

... but was it perhaps a typo for "trainer"?

But that was the entirety of the message.  There was no subject, just that quasi-setence, a name, and an email address.

A trainer is someone who trains animals.  Or like, someone who trains in weight lifting.  lolz

I know a guy who runs a business in the L.A. area and refers to himself as a "model trainer."  Knowing what I know about his business, he probably would do better as a trianer.  At least that would make more sense.

Without knowing what a "setence" is, I'm wondering if it was a pseudo rather than a quasi. D'OH!

And I had to spellcheck my post so I didn't fall on my own sarcasmasword. ;-)

Is spellcheck hyphenated?

I'm sure it was a typo for a Triander.

A Triander is considered any one of the Triandria, a class of plants having three distinct and equal stamens (The pollen-producing reproductive organ of a flower, usually consisting of a filament and an anther). 

In model sense, perhaps he was referring to leading a whore to culture...If you don't work with those type of models you won't need one. I'd pass on this offer, Brian.

And as the old saying goes, "you can lead a whore to culture, but you can't..."
