post a picture of yourself thread

[Normandy6644]

Staiduk man I think you just made every girl on this board have slightly bigger eyes for a moment. :wink:

"Oh, isn't he dreeaaaammmmyy!?!?"

:P

[Gullible Jones]

I don't have a picture of myself available, so I'll just say that I am an ugly, wirey nerd by day, and a huge, flying fungus by night.

[Candy]

Normally, I'm not this frisky... Well, I am! Yet, I am at a loss for words. Hubba, hubba, Staiduk. :P

[edit to add additional hubba, hubba]

[beskeptical]

Definitely prefer you with the hair, Staiduk. :D

Wow! It didn't take long for married life to make you jealous and bitter. :wink:

[Maksutov]

Thanks to everyone for their kind thoughts. It was a rough week medically*, but I'm in recovery mode. I guess the combination of the pain, the medications (10!, plus some injections), and other factors affected my judgment. My mistake which I am attempting to correct.

Meanwhile I figured it would be appropriate to return in this thread, along with pictures. Now, once folks gaze upon my old mugly ug, perhaps you'll all reconsider asking me to return! 8-[

The first is a picture taken just before leaving the homestead in Tennessee (hence the orange t-shirt) a couple years ago for the wilds of N. Mississippi. My prize habanero plants are in the background. They were enjoying the bright sunlight from the west (but I wasn't).

The second is the beautiful sunset over foothills of the Cumberland Mountains by which TN bid me adieu. :-?

Watch it, Maksutov, you'll make Humphrey more jealous! :P

Thanks to everyone for their kind thoughts.
I've changed my mind... you are too handsome... go away!! [-(

Welcome Back!! 8)

Er.... Ok; I'm all embarrassed now....... :oops:
Can't imagine anyone liking the looks of this broken-down old wreck but hey! I'm cool! 8)

Far as the hair goes; I'm still tryin' to figure this stuff out - drives me nuts on a motorcycle let me tell ya; and as far as I know 'mousse' is something you eat for dessert.
Been a civvie for a decade now and juuuuuuuust starting to 'go native'.

Rofl - thanks!

[The Bad Astronomer]

First, Mak, welcome back! =D>

Second, SpaceWriter, I played in TubaChristmas for three years! Tell Mark I said hi. :-) I played euphonium in DC when I was in high school. Funny.

[N C More]

Wow, I've been to "TubaChristmas" in Mass.! I guess it really is a small world.

Also, to Candy and SciFi Chick...I think I've figured out Staiduk's charisma. He has that charming "Jeff Bridges" look down pat!

[Staiduk]

If it helps, Staiduk, I don't find you attractive at all.

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Here's a recent pix of me and my dogs.

Wow. The dog on the right looks exactly like a dog we had when I was growing up! :o He was a border collie/chow mix and was my favorite of the half dozen or so that we had over the course of about 20 years that I lived there.

[SeanF]

I keep hearing the words double standard for some reason. :-k

[N C More]

Actually, both of those dogs are Australian Shepherds...a type of Collie. "Aussies" are larger than Border Collies but somewhat smaller than "Lassie" Collies! The reddish brown one is "Ruby" a 3 yr old female. The black, white and gold tri color is "Rascal" a 1 yr old male.

Now Candy....
Let us examine my message more carefully I quote it here to refresh memories... :-k


Yeah... but then anyone could replace you and look handsome in that first photograph.

You should take down immediately!! Uh wait... I haven't downloaded a copy of it yet...

Just as a side note... does anyone still post on the astronomy forums anymore??
Now... in this picture he had grafted his head onto a stunning example of the male physique. I simply stated in my message that such techniques could make anyone look as handsome. Of course I wanted to down load the picture so that I could replace his head with mine... :^o

No worries over this little misunderstanding... your apology is accepted... :P

:wink:

[Candy]

your apology is accepted... :P:wink: My apologies for not joining the BABB sooner, so I could have seen the 'missing' photo. I retract my pouting lips and words. There are other examples from the BABB men about 'rating' women throughout the whole Forum. I am used to it. It doesn't affect me emotionally or provoke negative comebacks. It just seems when it is the other way around... OMG. Poor Staiduk and the BA for being so handsome. :P

[Lurker]

Poor Staiduk and the BA for being so handsome. :P
Well... I think the BA looks ok... but I just don't understand why women refuse to wash their hands for days after shaking his hand!! [-(

I don't remeber that happening anywhere on the board... except, hmm, maybe in the Troy thread? I remember in the Movie thread about Ms. Stamos' very nude outfit. I can't give you the exact location, because it goes through one 'eye' and out the other. I'm not complaining, I understand men are very visual beings. Hence, the reason I buy make-up, maintain nice hair, and wear pretty clothes. I like the attention. :P

I've been meaning to. It just requires that I take the time to figure out how to get it on the web. Anyone want to make that process easy for me? :D

That's right, SciFiChick. Ignore the pressure. Like I said-that air of mystery....

And let me be the first to say that xcbk1 is also very, uh, interesting looking in a washed out, squashed sort of way.

[SciFi Chick]

That's right, SciFiChick. Ignore the pressure. Like I said-that air of mystery....

I confess, I do get torn. Then again, I've enjoyed finding out that most of the people on here aren't scary stalker types - well, at least they don't look like scary stalker types, so I'm thinking I might should jump on the bandwagon. Sigh. It's a good thing everyone's not jumping off a bridge. I'd be in trouble. :wink:

Man, I need a hobby.
You get much more interesting results when you move your head during scanning. Rolling the head so the scan detector is always below the point where the head touches the glass gives nice looking panorama views of your head from ear to ear. My kids had great fun with the scanner when I showed them such stuff.

[Tranquility]

So kucharek since you established you have a scanner when are you going to post your pic? You can't get out of it now :) .

I've been meaning to. It just requires that I take the time to figure out how to get it on the web. Anyone want to make that process easy for me? :D
If you want it to be real easy you can email me a digital image and I'll upload to my server. I'll then email you back with the URL so you can post it.

Phil,

Funny that didn't come up when you were here. We could have hauled out Mark's new King tuba and you both could have Ooohed and aaahed over it. We had to go all the way to the Baltimore Brass company in Catonsville, MD to buy it, so we piggybacked that trip onto a meeting I had at the 'tute a couple of years ago. Small world indeed!

Mark sez "hi" back atcha.

[Gullible Jones]

Umm, no. :oops:

[Spacewriter]

Umm, no. :oops:

Well, it's nominally about this futuristic society and some rebellious members take over a spaceship and strike out for new horizons. One of the last pieces is "Have You Seen the Stars Tonight" and it's about two people on the ship just before it leaves orbit, and the guy is asking the girl, "have you seen the stars tonight, would you like to go up on A deck and look at them with me?"

It's about stargazing and space travel and the romance of starting out somewhere not knowing where you'll end up, but you're doing it together. We used to play that song during laser light shows at the planetarium...

I agree. Of course, this will make it hard for them to find boyfriends since so many (not all of course, and no one here) men are so easily intimidated by women that are both intelligent and attractive. 8)

Right on SciFi Chick. Course I do have a boyfriend so not all guys are that stupid, just a lot of them in that regard.
And since no one else is gonna explain it, the counselors told us at camp if we found a guy in the girls dorm we were supposed to point at him and shout "boy! boy! boy! boy!" incessantly. :)

Um... I don't know about other men, but my Persian is a lot smarter than I am (working on PhD in physics... speaks three languages... reads and writes in two... much better read than I am in both languages... #-o ) and I wouldn't change anything about her. In fact I keep asking her, "why you you love me??"

She challenges me, we have the most exciting conversations (in English... I don't speak it as well as she does, but its my only language), and we share so many things together. I only hope that she feels that I have enough to give to her.

Intelligent women are great!! SpaceTrekkie, Andromeda, Siriusastronomer don't ever let anyone tell you different... and don't ever sell yourselves short!!

[SciFi Chick]

Right on SciFi Chick. Course I do have a boyfriend so not all guys are that stupid, just a lot of them in that regard.

I thought about looking you up during that visit - but it came together with about an hour's notice, and I made the mistake of taking the marked exit off the beltway rather than heading out the parkway the way I knew. As you'll anticipate, we wound up amid the experimental cornfields...

Unfortunately, no pictures from my trip to JPL yet, since I have the camera, but the better half has the cable. #-o Most of them involved me sleeping however -- by the pool, at the beach, in a car -- so you ain't missing much.

Well, my BaBB usage has been kinda sporadic for a while, so to answer a couple of PM's. I designed and built the set for the play, "The Merry Wives of Windsor" (for those familiar with the show, I was also Bardolf), during the Shakespeare festival at one of the local theatres. The theatre is extremely small (it used to be a house, built in 1912 and only holds 98 people) and so is the stage. There is no fly system (where set pieces can "fly out" to hide and come in to change scenes). Please remember that in the pictures below. The theatre also has a side area near the stage where several scenes took place. I can't take credit for the fireplace, that was original with the house.

Anyway, this (http://img12.photobucket.com/albums/v30/Tensor/photos/Housescene.jpg) is the main set for the first 4 acts. Moving the benchs and trees, and adding some tables, chairs, and tapestries, it acted as the inside of the house, the outside of the house and street scenes. This is the outside configuration. The windows and doors work.

This (http://img12.photobucket.com/albums/v30/Tensor/photos/Houseright.jpg) photo is the side area. If you look close to the very left, you can see the Main curtain, it's a deep red. This was Doctor Caius House configuration, note the potions in the glass containers and the books. It also had a inkwell and a feather pen. At times it also had a sword.

The last picture, of the set, is the forest (http://img12.photobucket.com/albums/v30/Tensor/photos/forestscene.jpg) scene. It's my favorite and from the oohh and aahhs of the audience seems like it was theirs too. The lighting added wonderfully to this. The sidewalls were hinged, the back wall had panels installed, and the hanging tree drop were manually moved and hung during the large scene change. Note the large tree trunks, on the stage, to the left and right.

And to stay on topic, here's (http://img12.photobucket.com/albums/v30/Tensor/photos/meonset.jpg) me stading on the set.

Not at all, though most free services have very limited bandwidth (i.e. geocities..if more than 1 person is on the site at a time it makes it inaccessable...)

If anyone would be willing to host it for free, that'd be nice. :) I might be able to in the near future.

[Lycus]

In that case, I think it would be better to use a specialty service like Yahoo Photo Album. I don't think they have bandwidth restrictions (at least, not that I know of).

Edit: Okay, I started a Yahoo account under "babbalbum". I'll start uploading stuff now, and I'll publicize if the plan still looks good later.

Lycus, the last link in my post is the one that includes me. The rest are just the set pictures.

I'm the one in black-this is from a production we did at high school earlier in the year. Bad picture, but the only one of me I could find. If the above doesn't work, hopefully the bottom link will.

Don't forget about the "Preview" button when creating a post. It's a good way to make sure links (and BBCode) are working properly.

So you were the last one left standing? :)

I am happy to see there are still people capable of seeing the true beauty behind an abstract representation!

I think I like your GLP representation better. ;)

[Lycus]

Okay, here's the URL for the photo album:

http://photos.yahoo.com/babbalbum

If anyone wants to put that in their sig or something to make it easier for others to find, go right ahead.

PM me if you see any errors. Also, tell me if you want your picture changed, deleted, or captioned. For those of you who posted more than one picture, I just went ahead and chose one. If you would prefer to use a different one, let me know.

Thanks - well done!

=D> Nice. Maybe the BA could stick a link someplace.

Yeah my thanks too... and I second the link idea...

[Lycus]

Thanks, guys!

By the way, I forgot something in my last post. If you posted a pic and are not in the album, that's either because your link was dead or stupid me missed you. In the case of the former, repost it if you still want it to be in the album.

[pumpkinpie]

Thanks Lycus!

I can't post one here because I don't have any pictures online. Just jpegs. Would I be able to post one in the photo album?

[Lycus]

All right, for anyone who doesn't have any webspace, just go ahead and send it to me. My e-mail's right down there.

[Lurker]

Um... shouldn't there be a warning that this album is not for the faint of heart?? :o

Lycus suggested that I post this updated pic of me to this thread since it was going in the album...

Since it's out there permanent-like now, maybe I should get a more recent picture uploaded . . . :)

I like it, though maybe this would only be appropriate for pre-telescope (visual) bad astronomy. :D

Yeah, for anyone who sends me a new picture over the e-mail, go ahead and post it here too if you like.

Just wanted to let you know I'm in the album, thanks to Lycus! Having trouble putting the pic in here, I just get the dreaded red x when I try to link it.
Picture was taken last October.

Yahoo won't let you put the image in your post, but you can link to its page directly. Like this:

This is really a great, great thing that you've done!

I will be posting a picture of myself...sooner or later...:)

Much respect to Lycus for putting the album together and I will add my vote to a link being made on the site to the album.

Thanks Lycus. Strange seeing a physical manifestation of the virtual entity with which one has been interacting with. Lots of surprises for me. Hmmm.... There must be a moral to this, but I just got up and am still sleepy... :-k

Here is a recent picture of me that I'm quite proud of. Extra points for identifying the other guy in the picture.

Jim Lovell brings his own personal referee with him on trips? :D

Yeah, wicked job. Outstanding!

Is is just me or is this board populated by a large proportion of good-looking guys?

Well from what I've seen so far, I'd say the board is populated by a large proportion of good-looking gals too..................= )

Sweet job on the album.

Might've been a little more of a challenge if his nametag wasn't actually legible in the photo . . . :D

True, but then I didn't think it would be too hard for this bunch anyway. Thanks for playing everyone.

As my wife says, "cute" is a four-letter word. :lol: (She does not like to be called that, even though she is c***.)
