It had better still have you facing sideways, or my post is going to look pretty stupid. (I don't mind when I make them look stupid, but you're not allowed to. )

 

[Evo]

Ok, someone brightened up my picture, so here it is, new and improved.

So do I look better purple or natural?

 

[Moonbear]

This was taken on 8/21/2005. I'm the guy in the blue shirt.

Oh, great, another guy who we think might be cute who is hiding behind sunglasses and a cap that casts his face in shadows.

We want to actually see those cute faces, guys!

 

[dubmugga]

this is me, a son named Chi (short for Chiron) and Kobe my graffiti painted van...

Hello Evo, Natural is better of course. You look great!

Hello Moonbear, Here's one that's fresher than my morning coffee (w/o glasses, cap, or shadows).

I like your avatar, and if my cat could figure out how to do that I'm sure that she would happily fire on more than just mice (more like anything whatsoever that moves or makes the slightest sound).

Double WOW!

OK, I'll try to be objective.

The 'natural' one has a warmer appeal, and the 'purple' one looks more mysterious. In either, you look as though you are concentrating on something. I just help wondering what you were thinking at that moment.

I think you look great in either one.

Besides I like purple.

 

[TheStatutoryApe]

Lovely as always Evo.

 

[BinQasim]

Err... not a flattering one but who cares

Just registered 2day for the second time

Ah, much better. Wow, you look a lot like someone I know locally!

One of my friends was watching me on the computer and said "Whoa she's hot!"

I am presently living in Tennessee, and you?

That project must've been a camera because it managed to take a picture of you. I remember the last time one of my projects took a picture of me, it's so irritating, you know, I'm trying to focus and the project just keeps taking pictures of me

 

[Pyrrhus]

No, it wasn't a Camera

Evo my dear, you could put any kind of light on you and you would still look stunning...

By means of an update, here's the thing I've been using as an avatar lately.
The picture I use at PF is about 5 years old now, this is how I look now :

Dimitri, you just keep getting better looking! :!)

If I wasn't, how was it you put it? "older than your father" I'd be on a plane to Belgium.

don't let her get away with that Dimitri. sounds like a compliment but she didn't set a baseline. you keep getting better looking, but better looking than what? I'm slowly going blind and the black stain around the base of the toilet keeps getting better looking.

Just go to town if you want

 

[Danger]

Nice site! I don't have time to snoop around it now (I have the feeling that I'd end up there for several hours), but I added it to my 'favourites' list for future reference.

Oh yeah,,,
believe me I spend many hours making most of the stuff in there, if you have any question just start a tread and post them up, most of the stuff is kind of "Empirical" but Is regarded by most of my Nasa type super geek friends as very interesting...

even if the ones I like the most are stuff like this

what can i say I'm a total sucker for super smart and mega educated woman

Matching seats and everything, at least for some time.

but i also love the Honest smiles of the "little ones"

 

[Danger]

what can i say I'm a total sucker for super smart and mega educated woman

And the leather pants have nothing to do with it...

You can't be too serious about that one; you haven't installed the steerable spotlights on hers.

 

[Evo]

You look adorable!

okay some how you got me there, what can i say ,i'm kind of a artist and I'm prone to apreciate beauty

You can't be too serious about that one; you haven't installed the steerable spotlights on hers.

actually Irina is the kind of person that likes to make her own things and yes for a long time we were pretty Serius sadlly does times are now gone...

 

[Danger]

I hope you realize that I'm copying these to my HD for my own perverse purposes.

yes for a long time we were pretty Serius sadlly does times are now gone...

Sorry, dude. I didn't mean to make light of your relationship. You seem to have recovered nicely, though.

 

[ricardo kuhn]

Okay but for the really PeRveRt pictures i will charge you..

and give the money to her

Sorry, dude. I didn't mean to make light of your relationship. You seem to have recovered nicely, though.

I don't get obsete with stuff like that, I'm a dumma^^ because i let her go, actually she graduate from Moscou university with a PHD and everything, so for sure is no dummy at all...

okay i better shut up now before the salty water drops start to rundown my nose...

 

[Danger]

Sounds fair. It's good to know that you're not a pimp. Do you accept Pay Pal?

 

[ricardo kuhn]

I was joking,,,I will not let you see "those" even to safe my life since they are "personal" in between her and me,, but at the same time she have absolutlly no problems if i use her "normal" pictures at anytime..
Oh Irina is forty something years olf too.

for sure we need more woman like her in this planet, such a tropper, so uncomplicated and without all this "Fear","Scary-cat", "barrior with the private" and whatever other CPcrap the ladys (well and guys) around here suffer from so much ...

I love that about the Woman's I meet in Amsterdam (NO,, not those ladys of the night) the normal females back there live their life as PeRsOnS not Boxed into this Lady roll,, you know they are not even feminist, they when by that stage million months ago and now they are free to do whatever they want and feel like...

maybe mister Danger you need to take a trip up there (not in the winter) to keep you away from the :Puter from time to time...
Oh man and they are so So pretty and So So many is not even funny

Now I got you back...Ahh

 

[hypatia]

Actually believe it or not for purelly Scolastic reasons.

i have some serius interest in Human power transportation, to the point i end up with two master deggres on the subject, and Amsterdam is pretty much the epitomy of the inteligent use of resourses in terms of transportantion.

just look at this
http://patineto.smugmug.com/photos/9554114-L-1.jpg

3000 bike parking structure right next to the train station,, freaking amazing..
http://patineto.smugmug.com/photos/9554127-M.jpg

actually I when there for "Business" to test ride a "Secret" motorbike and do some good contacts for my design studio

Now I can show since the bike already race the Dakar trails

What can I tell you I have a "Fetish" For bend up tubes and fancy welds

and also mecanical things

Interesting observation, i admit. I have visited this city many times but i never noticed this. Indeed you are quite correct.

I need to re-open my eyes i guess.

actually is very comun, for the person being inmerse on their enviroment.
the things that look like "Marvels" to a tourist are provincial and comun at best for the people that frequent the same exact enviroment.. (that is why is so cool to go on trips and adventures, at least for me)
I also have seven semesters of Semiotic science studies,,,what can i say I love No verbal comunication, maybe because I'm so Dizlexic...

Did you ever see the "Bend" buildings...??
acording to a friend (I think is a joke) the Hollander were so prone to show their achivements and materail gain, they develope this kind of buildings so other can pick inside their windows and see how much they have..

personally i think is more to do with the soft ground the city is build,, but you need to admite my friends story is for more fun and interesting.

I also love all this house Boats

i think this is going a little to far of topic,, maybe we need to start a whole tread if you guys have any questions...

To me being a scientist, geek, nerd whatever is to able to the avility to see what most can not,, not necesary in fisical terms but the endless possibilites the human brain can bring..

 

[Danger]

Pardon the delay in response. The not-wife (henceforth abbreviated N/W) showed up to give me a ride home from work, and there were all sorts of complications what with her locking her keys in the car and whatnot. This is my first chance to get back.

maybe mister Danger you need to take a trip up there (not in the winter) to keep you away from the :Puter from time to time...

It's not 'up there', ricardo. It's 'over there'... way, waaaayyyy over there. I'm in Alberta.

 

[tribdog]

I thought you were from Canada.

my truck automatically locks the doors if you hit 15 mph. Sometimes at work it is easier for me to drive from point to point holding the GPS out the open door. Then when I get to the next point the doors are locked, but open so when I jump out and shut the door I'm locked out. I've done it three times now. Everytime the truck has been running, once it was in the middle of an intersection. I'm getting pretty good at breaking into the truck.

 

[Danger]

The disgusting part is that I'm a locksmith, but I would have had to walk half a mile home to get my tools, and it was -20C with a wicked windchill. We just called AMA and waited inside.

 

[tribdog]

LMAO
Don't feel bad. I'm a land surveyor and got lost a couple of days ago.

Nice story, but the reason that the houses bend forward is another one. If you've ever been inside you'll notice it's impossible to move furniture up the staircases, all the furniture is moved into the house through the windows. On the top of the building you see a pole sticking out, furniture is attached to a rope and with the help of the pole tackled up and into the house.

To prevent the furniture banging into the lower windows, the front of the house is build with a slope. That's what I've been told at least

 

[tribdog]

Wow, we just built bigger staircases

 

[zoobyshoe]

We have a nice thread going for people to explain their experiences with that:
