1. Meet the IT giglo

Q. So, how long have you been a tech-support manwhore?
A. ...the idea just popped into my head: "Wow, it would be really nice if I could get sex for this." I placed an ad on Craigslist that read, "WILL FIX COMPUTERS FOR SEXUAL FAVORS," and I've had an overwhelming number of responses.

Hmmm. Well, security for sex *used* to be in vogue. I guess computer security is logical. Why was this never on the careers pages?

2. myheritage face recognition flash In another twist on the clone debate, apparently, I look like a rather attractive indian tennis player. Cool. I think it's the glasses, hair, and shavedness.

3. Semi-transparent glowing rubber bath duckies! Awww!

Your nose looked like all of drew barrymore? What picture did you give it? :)

I've been using that picture for years, until I find a nicer one. I assumed it would always find *someone* even if it didn't match well. It said I matched 60% with tennisgirl.

it is a nice picture. My system doesn't run flash, so I can't tell who I am. Gosh, that's very philosophical or something, isn't it?

I could find out if you like. But I'd need a pic with a bit of a face -- I think all the flurblepics I've seen have been sheep icons, group shots, acrobatics, or surprise angles.

Is there enough face on my work mugshot?

Oh yes, plenty. It's a nice smile, but you're prettier in real life. Anyway, it gives:

> Sophie Marceau (born November 17, 1966) is a French actress. Born
> Sophie Danièle Sylvie Maupu in Paris, France, at the age of 14
> she starred in the teenager movie La Boum (1980).

And imagine how strange it was before I read the last line.

It does seem to key on position when there's nothing else.

that's the picture my sister picked out of her collection when I said I needed a work picture.

*giggles*

She doesn't look much like me, really, does she? At least, I wouldn't have picked her.

Um. I took a photo with my webcam just now, but the lighting was really bad =P I've only uploaded it onto the heritage site, and I'm not sure how to look at it again.

Why bother if it's bad? But did you see it on a page -- can you 'back' to that? Or undelete the file?
