@Mathew: Nice photo. I think the moustache/beard looks good on you. :)

I agree. :)

"Good looks" by itself is not only subjective across people, but also subjective across time / eras. For instance, many of us would find the actresses of the 60s looking pretty (and) dated what with their outdated dressing style and hair-style. They may not come across as "photogenic" today - even though at the peak of their careers they were outstandingly so.

Yes, but in this case - the visually appealing person may not really be "photogenic" in the true sense. i.e As the individuals have met in person, the subject's "likeability" (or "charisma" as Guido put it) has influenced the opinion of the viewer making the judgement.

So, it is more likely that another viewer may disagree with the former's opinion.

That french beard looks really cool... :thumb:

(I used to have one for a couple of month a long while back... Made me look like a goat... I didn't disclose this and you didn't read it. :D)

True. But when I said "strictly visual appeal" I am talking about how the subject's appearance registered in the photo. :) But then of course, beauty/appeal is in the eyes of the beholder. Again, I am talking strictly about photos here...

Ah, we have a pandemy of pictures today. ;) I had a lot of work to do to list them all in the index. ;)

Guido, Sid, Cherish, Mathew, nice pictures. :thumb: :wave:

Yeah, you are right... Instead of deciphering his code... I called him a stone face. Now, that ain't a decent way to engage a Pharaoh... Is it? :D

Thanks. :)

No, no... The original name is not only correct, but also a lot more meaningful than the poetic one... :D ;)

Another set of really nice photos... :)

yes, that was definitely rude.. name-calling is does not get you nowhere..that's probably why you were snob :lol:

@cherish, those island photos brings back the memory of Bantayan Island.. :thumb:

@cilu: Cool. :cool:

@Siddhartha: Thanks. Well, I just copied the description of bird island from a website. :blush: I personally don't like the poetic one. :D

@ideru: Bantayan Island... sounds like a nice place. Near Cebu? Do you have pics with you? :D

Rather than pay, I'd preferably come down to NMI and pick the geeks myself... That'll be more fun. :D

(Perhaps, I was attending the session on Atlas.)

Thanks for sharing the photos, Guido... I get the feeling that you found the keys which I threw into the ocean, but it is OK... :D

Okay... Will you be listing Queen Nefertiti too?

Apart from being the seniormost, and of a royal blood, she did handle a good amount of code in her heydays... :D

Nah... she's not a member of CG. ;)

Btw, Cilu... didn't you and Hobson mentioned something about coming here in NMI too? :D

Oh, did they?
I'll plan my trip in a way that itineraries don't clash.

I ain't gonna be sharing my bunch of geeks in NMI... :D

Oh Sid... I fear that was a big mistake (not the beard, but the disclosure...) You know which picture we are now expecting you to post next, right? :D

@Sid: Selfish guy... :rolleyes: :D There are plenty geeks here... I think. :ehh: :D

@ideru: You should definitely come here! You're only 3 hours away... :D

@gstercken: Absolutely! I've been telling him (Sid) to do the exact thing a few posts back in this thread. :D

Looks like we should start scheduling a CodeGuru meeting in Saipan... :) How many CodeGurus can you host, Cherish? ;)

I will have to fish hard for one... And it will not be in digital form... So, I have an excuse ready just in case I manage to locate a photo. :D

Selfish ehh?

You don't share everything with your friends, do you? :D :ehh:

(sorry, I am at loss for more phonetic expressions.)

...Plenty of geeks on an island the size of two city blocks? :D

Host... that doesn't include lodging, right? :D
Anyways, I think the more, the merrier. :)
I can take you guys around the island or something... And then sink the island. :evil grin: ;)

And like what I have told you, there are scanners for these kinds of things. Having that photo in non-digital format is no excuse. :p

On that, I am not sure. Like what I told Cilu, why not just come here to find out? :D

Well, like what Guido have said... you shouldn't have mentioned that detail. Hence, you brought it upon yourself. :p :D

Well, lets blame Matthew for inspiring me... :D

Mathew, the poor scapegoat. :D

So, finally Matthew ends up being a goat... :eek: :D :thumb:

... I didn't say that. You did. :p

Oh, Beautiful Nefertiti... Did you even bother to take my permission before using that photo taken by me for your Avataar? :D

Nevermind, Queens dont have to ask, and my permission is taken for granted... :D ...It was my pleasure to "meet" you. ;) ;) ;)

Does cilu doesn't have much of a case now? :D :D :thumb:

O smiling young stranger from the Land of the Maharajas (with the same discs of fused desert sand on your nose :cool: ), thou art in a state of error. The portrait in my Avatar is far from being a duplicate of the information produced by the light rays you took the freedom to capture with your magic box whilst standing in front of my stolen bust in the Kingdom of the Beer. Instead, it's free and covered by the GNU public license... :D

Rest assured, my curse will be terrific...

Somebody, whose name I will not disclose, should know that your IPs are visible to me. So I know who Nefertiti actually is. ;)

LOL!

Stranger? Art thou sure - all-knowing, beautiful Nefertiti? :D

It would have been my privilege should you have used the information taken from my magicbox, but I accept with humility that it ain't so!
