Aw, c'mon and STOP being such WEENIES!
This may be our only chance to see each other's faces!
That may not mean anything to YOU, but it means a LOT to ME!
And if I can post MY mug...well, so can you.
Heck, Luscious Lazlo probably has already made a dartboard out of it!
So, COME ON, Howard, Rocco, Joan, MLWare, and everybody else...SEND IN THOSE PICTURES!

I'm waiting till I'm "outed" in Detroit. Some wiseass with a laptop and a digi-cam is going to post SOMETHING ... but those few of you who even care already know my real name anyway. (If not face. Haven't met most of ya. Actually, if I believe this is going to happen anyway, I ought to pick a GOOD picture in advance ... since I don't photograph very well. I AM WAY HANDSOMER IN PERSON, LADIES [whoops, motive betrayed.])Remember that question I asked about how you cut and paste photos into the threads? That was just so I could insert one ... although I still don't quite understand it, and anyway, the photo itself wouldn't have been of me, it would have been of my truest soulmate and alter ego ... yes ... Godzilla. (No tattoos as yet, but of the three I intend to get, one of them is of a particular shot of him in GODZILLA VS. THE SEA MONSTER with his chin tucked into his chest, looking VERY ****ed off. That is my crowning and defining self-image.)
Otherwise (shrug) I'll probably post the shot from '98 with the cigar, I look halfway cool in that one (Andre, PLEASE don't get on me about the tobacco industry!)

Not everybody has a way to get their picture on the computer to send, you know. I, myself, have a scanner, but as I've always hated having my picture taken, don't really have one good enough to send.

Rocco...if I make it to Detroit, I"M BRINGING MY CAMERA! I'm so sorry I didn't get a pic of you in the cool bomber jacket at Carnegie Hall!
dantoris...there's got to be at least ONE photo you could send! I'm always the guy behind the camera, so there are very, VERY few photos of me anywhere...but I did find a recent one to send. It was taken at my parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary.
Dana Wilcox...PROVE IT!

Chris - Perhaps I'll dress up in a tuxedo and have my picture taken at a bar, with a girl on my arm, a martini in one hand and PPK in the other, a la Bond . . . James Bond.

Kinsinger remembers the bomber jacket ... aww, that makes me grin all over.In Detroit it'll be a black-and-white hand-me-down silk jacket. The weather being what it'll be (the bomber'll be too damn hot!) Haven't picked the shirt yet. Wondering if I should go all out with a tie. Pretty much none of you will have a tie, and Lord knows I love to upstage.

dantoris...THAT'S THE SPIRIT, MAN! Take a "glamour" photo just for US!Kris, Bel366, Valere, Alwin, Timmer...do any of you have friends or relatives who own a scanner? If you do, they can help you. Also, there are print & copy shops everywhere that will provide this service for you for about $10. Here in Harrisburg, there are printers on every corner, and all of them provide scanning services! And it doesn't cost an arm and a leg, so NO EXCUSES, PLEASE!
Rocco: HOW COULD I FORGET that cool, cool bomber jacket, man? I wanted to knock you down and take it! If you had been closer to my jacket size, I just might have!

Please, it's bad enough reading the reviews of High Fidelity without having pictures to confirm my worst possible images. And all you need to know is that'll be me stepping off the plane at Detroit Metro wearing Blues Brothers shades & carrying a martini.

We HAVE a scanner, we just don't know how to use it ... mayhap I'll try to figure it out. I AM halfway worried that I'll be posted somewhere, all red-eyed, pockmarked and unshaven (you know those flash cameras that supposedly eliminate red-eye. It does NOT work on me. I look demonic, which is appropriate, but faintly irritating. I used to pose exclusively in shades for this reason, may do so again) ... best perhaps to pre-empt this and run the cool shot. I'll have to crop out the other person in it (no, nothing disgusting.)Christopher, I didn't even have time to show you the bomber jacket's Special Feature: the inside is a full map of European roads and train lines, so if I ever get shot down over the south of France, I'll know what to do. (It's gotten kind of shredded in the past couple years, probably partly due to being stretched in odd directions during that brief job I had wrestling Christmas trees into submission. The more sadistic deliverers would actually drop them from the top of the truck and you'd have to catch em. You grew to dread the three-packs of trees especially ... they were HARDER to handle than the four-packs, because the four-packs would always be smaller trees. Three-packs were always in the six-foot range, each, all bundled together. It was the closest I'll probably ever get to boot camp.)

Honorable Chris Kinsinger: your profile is really cool, my friend, and it was nice to finally see the face behind one of FSM's most prominent posters. Well, the reason there is no photo of mine in the profiles section is simple: there is no electronic photo of mine in existence that I'm aware of, and I do not have a functioning scanner right now. Maybe in a few weeks.NP: Thomas Newman AMERICAN BEAUTY

Well, if anybody here MUST know how I look, that's easy. I look like God. That's what people always say when they see me: "Oh, God!" Can't help it.

There's not much to tell, Dantoris. This was a long time ago, before she was truly famous. You know, just another one of those hot California late summer evenings, on top of the Malibu hills, Sandy and I snuggling up in her fiery red Ford Mustang convertible, watching the sun gently going down at the horizon, her hair caressed by the slight breeze... it was our final evening together, and we both knew it. We had to part, because it was clear for both of us that staying together would hurt her career. She did not want to leave me, but I stayed firm. It was not easy for me, but I had to think for both of us.
"Listen, Sandy darling", I said. "If you don't go now, you will regret it. Maybe not today and maybe not tomorrow, but you will one day. You know what your agent told you. You can be a star. You got the right stuff." She nodded sadly. We both knew the facts. Female stars at the beginning of their careers should not already be tied to boyfriends with the appearance of a Greek godlike stud. So we kissed one more time and... oh... excuse me... hehe... wait a second, I got something mixed up here, that's not EXACTLY how it was. (This was actually the somewhat embellished version I am going to tell my future grandkids some day.)
The real story is slightly different: I met Sandra Bullock before she was as big a star as now on the set of DEMOLITION MAN (the then brand new L.A. Public Convention Center). She was very unpretentious and friendly, everybody there liked her. (She was really very good looking, I thought, and very charming and natural; that's not a joke.) In the breaks she sat right next to me and exercised some guitar riffs. I doubt she remembers me, though. (I was the guy who pretended to busily scribble notes with a pencil into a copy of the script to look busy.) But I sure do. posted 04-12-2000 05:30 AM PT (US) dantoris
