I've missed you. :smile: I've been checking in on you guys but somehow too busy to say hello and keep up... or something rather lame like that.

Does anyone remember me, or am I going to have to demonstrate my super-amazingness all over again? :buggrin: I don't mind. I have diagrams.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Who? What? Where?
 
Welcome back. I hear you have sexy ears.

- Warren
 
Where have you guys been?
Is that a rhetorical question? :biggrin:

So, hrw - where've ya' been. :-p
 
I like your new icon!
 
{{{{HRW}}}} You have been missed!
 
It must be the seasonal migration of missing PFers. Tribdog just popped in.

We're missing pengwuino.

Artman is probably off celebrating his 25th anniversary, which was yesterday. The nerve of that guy.

Congrats Artman! :biggrin:

Really? There was a tribdog sighting?

We're missing pengwuino.
He and dduardo disappeared together. I still suspect it has something to do with penguin mating season. :-p

Congrats Artman! :biggrin:

Ooh, a big milestone! Here's hoping for at least another 25 more! :biggrin:

Yay. Thanks, guys. I think I have to plead the Fifth on my whereabouts. I might have been trying to convince a couple of boys that I am the greatest thing in the world and failing miserably. I can't remember just now.

Actually, I guess I was mainly learning a bit about computers and programming. And I did help a friend make a website that I think is pretty cool. It mostly builds itself. I have one background image left to make still, but when it's all up and shiny, I'll ask him if he minds sharing.

Oh, and it's true, my ears are totally hot. <wink-wink/>

I have a whole box of q-tips at home with your name on it. Just say when.

Maybe if Zz has an ear-themed photo contest, I can show you my stuff. Or have I already missed my big chance?

Welcome back HRW! I've been wondering where you've been.

Welcome back. I noticed your absence, but just figured that you were busy with exams or something. Demonstrations of your super-amazingness are always welcome. I'm pretty sure that I have all of the diagrams, but some updated photos would only enhance the situation. :biggrin:

You have a tremendous memory! Thanks Astronuc. Seems you are having an anniversary soon as well? Congrats to you as well! :biggrin:

Yeah - you've been married (officially that is) 14 days longer than me, but I am 6 days older. :biggrin:

Yeah, it probably should have been school.

I was actually thinking that it was about time I showed my face around here, but most of the pictures of me that I like are perhaps a little questionable for a family-friendly site. I don't think they're bad at all, but some people seem to think so. Of course, I imagine some people would interpret a picture of Mother Teresa feeding a deer to be sexually provocative, but anyway. I might have to take some new ones.Hap[/color]py A[/color]nni[/color]ver[/color]sar[/color]y, Ar[/color]tma[/color]n![/color][/size]

This fascinates me. If you think the pictures are questionable, I think you should submit them to a PF Admin immediately to have them considered. :biggrin:

You really should post a photo. You're about the only long-time member that hasn't, and you don't look half bad.

Anyway, I didn't really notice you were gone, because I haven't been around much, either. My excuse actually is school.

I think a bunch of people are coming back to PF for the summer.

P.S. I havn't posted a photo, am I long-term member?

Only 2781 posts? You're still a newbie (as am I!):biggrin:

Yeah, I suppose you're right. You did a post a link to your MySpace profile once, though, and that had pictures of you on it.

The pictures that I was talking about are like the ones on http://www.okcupid.com/profile?u=NoseRoseToes" . Heh, it looks quite odd now that I look at it from... this site. It's not a terribly serious depiction of me. I keep having to add more to try to scare away some of the nice innocents who I fear are not prepared for my weirdness.

I was very sad in some of them. I think that's why I like them.

Those pictures aren't even so great, and they're from a while ago, January, I think. I took them before I read the manual, so I didn't know how to adjust everything, and they were all not focused so well and quite overexposed, so I had to play with their histograms a lot. Anyway, yeah, I don't like taking pictures of myself. :blushing: I don't like it a lot. Well, I like it in that I can be creative and expressive with it, but, yeah, I don't really like showing them to people. It's weird.

Very nice pictures, hrw. You are quite attractive, very beautiful I might say, and have a very interesting mind. :approve: :cool:

I'm sure you've changed tremendously in the four months since then. You're an 82% match for me.

Oh yeah, Prufrock is my favorite poem.

I cropped it from http://www.artrenewal.org/asp/database/image.asp?id=13831" by Gerard Dou. He is one of my favorites. I love the light of the Dutch Masters. I've thought about changing it since some people think that it's me, but I really like it. Perhaps I could compromise and make a picture of myself that looks the same.

Thanks. Yeah, I'm nuts. It's okay, you can say it. :biggrin:

I cut my hair much shorter.

That doesn't surprise me at all; I already know their matching algorithm doesn't work. Who are you there?

Prufrock is my favorite poem now too. You are the one who introduced me to it. I have also grown quite fond of Sad-eyed Lady of the Lowlands.

Sexy ears?! I can think of a dark-haired elf in LOTR that was pretty sweet. She said in later interviews that she always wanted to have pointy ears, and I think that she is gorgeous with them.

Sh!t, woman! Do you even know how much I have missed you? In my fascinating, enviable, hunch-backed and Igor-esque cog sci research assistant life, not a week goes by that I don't come across some tidbit that I wish to share/discuss with you.

Glad to see you, dear pal.

I was about to write you if you didn't come down here tonight. I missed you tons. I've seen you in the programming section and wanted to ask how school was going, but you seem so busy, and I always end up opting not to disturb you. I do the same when I see a cool linguistics story relating to cog sci or animal communication. I'm glad you're still around. :biggrin:

Why, thank you. Since when are you in Florida? I thought you lived in Guam.

Sorta!:wink:
Well, my dream man is only good for dreams and it's impossible to live with such a guy because of his attitudes . I've been always sure of that. So my bf can't be exactly like my dream man since he seems to be good for real life but he has a lot in common with my dream man!

BTW, you look very cute!:smile: I saw your pic a few weeks ago when I was cheking your profile .

Well, after I looked at your profile, I guess it's the same effect as if Lisa! already told someone. :wink:

P.S. btw honestrosewater, for some reason, until now I thought you were a male. :biggrin:

hmmm...should I tell them that they have to wait till the next 6 years ?

:smile:
I thought the same at 1st! You know sometimes people who meet me online accuse me of being a man but I guess that's becuase I'm a bit rude and cold with people whom I don't feel good about them for some reasons!

Why? Did her horoscope say that she'll meet her prince on a white horse exactly in 6 years, or is she in a relationship which will end exactly in 6 years? :biggrin:
