As definitive proof that there is a God, I offer Exhibit A -

[Sweetling]

That is correct. I AM God. And I proclaim that evolution is real. And it's spectacular.

Well, regardless of whether you are God, a mere product of evolution, or somewhere in between, you are certainly a beautiful sight to behold.

Since I'm behind a Bosch company firewall I have never seen your picture, but I must say that the hype makes me believe you are quite the beauty. I hope you never age and your beauty is timeless as is these theists' god.

Thanks, B. My alleged beauty is a bit overblown. I'm attractive, but there's nothing a good angle, low light and a lot of photoshop can't improve.

Don't let her kid you, Brakeman.  A beautiful woman looks in the mirror and can barely see herself for what she perceives as flaws.  Her eyes are deep and pensive, yet sparkle with a youthful gentleness, and her smile would melt the heart of the coldest villan.  Her cheeks appear as if sculpted out of marble yet as soft as the freshest marshmellows.  I cannot even describe her lips lest I risk banishment from the forum, and the whole picture is framed in the most graceful, silken curls gently falling round her face.

I'll admit to being somewhat biased, as I find most woman to be quite beautiful.  Still, I feel qualified by decades of appreciation of such beauty to rate her among the most stunning.  Perhaps I can best complete the picture for you by saying that if you put hers between Ingrid Bergman and Elizabeth Taylor (in her prime), Sweetling would not look at all out of place.

Now, as I've only seen her face, the rest of her could indeed by quite horrid, but I cannot imagine that God would be so cruel.

Ah. So your imagination does fail at some point. Let me assure you that nature, if not your god, has played some tricks on me. But that was a lovely pean.

Nature, aided by childbirth, no doubt, but motherhood only makes you all the more beautiful.  You're not supposed to look like a teenager any more, you know.   

And thanks.  I meant every word.

Me and my dulcimer, last year. 

[Captain Luke]

I don't have a dulcimer. Myron is posting out of date photos of me so I thought I would set the record straight.
This is me trying to work out why my head goes the wrong way when trying to take a photo of myself on a webcam, a few months ago:

Me reading the Moderator bias thread:

Me desperately trying to make my left eye seem the same size as my right:

That's it for the next 5 years.

[acctnt_shan]

It's a shame you don't like me Luke, or I'd give a compliment  

[Captain Luke]

Don't worry Shan. I know.

It's a lovely scarf.

[Jezzebelle]

what's the scar on your forehead from?

(i have yet to meet a boy who does not a scar somewhere on their face from some type of accident that happened from age 2-9)

[Captain Luke]

Glass door, head first when I was two. My Mum was at the launderette about 8 months pregnant with my younger brother and my Dad was "looking after" me and my two older brothers. I went flying into the door, he wasn't very good with blood so he wrapped a towel round my head, took me to the lauderette and handed me to my Mum. "I think this one's yours".

[acctnt_shan]

Four boys in your family?     Bless your Mum! 

[Captain Luke]

And people wonder why I argue so much...

[acctnt_shan]

And people wonder why I argue so much...

It does explain a lot   

Hopefully it's clear that I am teasing you...

ouch!

If I had a scar like that, I'd make up a story about a bar fight.

I have a scar from when I needed to have bone removed from my hip to fix to repair my leg with.  It's on my hip and a few inches long with little puncture scars along both sides where the staples went in.  For fun, I would pass this scar off as an alligator bite.

I have a scar on my earlobe from an earring that was accidentally pulled out of my ear.  It later became infected and some scar tissue grew on it that I had to have removed. My left earlobe is now visibly shorter than my right and has a vertical scar.  It looks like a small bite was taken out of it.  People will ask me what happened and I always tell them that I went camping and while asleep a raccoon came into the tent and bit my earlobe off.  The looks I get are priceless. 

[Son of Man]

That's great.  : )

  I had that exact thing happen!!  Except not the raccoon bite...

scars? should this be a new thread?

i have scars from deep dogbites on my thigh and left arm (different dogs). i have 3rd degree burn scars from a motorcycle fracas on my right foot (bad day, that)

i have caustic burns from potassium hydroxide on my left thigh (oil rig work), and my hands have scars all over them that i can't remember the origins of

zz, i also have a childhood scar on my face, but only my mother remembers why i have it

i lost lots of skin from my back and right arm from stepping off my motorcycle at 110 mph, but that doesn't show any more

i have never been bitten by a raccoon either

I have the funniest true scar story...

You can't really see it in most of my pictures, but I have a tiny scar right below my lower lip.

One year a bunch of my friends and I went to Six Flags Fright Fest for Halloween.  There was this guy dressed as a zombie that kept deliberately following us and staring and trying to freak us out.  Anywho, trying to play all tough in front of my friends, I stared back at him and he came up till he was standing literally like 2 inches from my face.  To try and startle me, he went to shake this noisemaker really quickly near my head (it was like a can with dry beans in it or something)... and apparently he misjudged the distance and whacked me right in the mouth with the stupid thing. 

I was laughing until I realized it was bleeding... and badly.  It actually had cut through to the inside of my mouth... The hour ride home was miserable lol and it was painful to eat/drink for the next few days (thankfully my tetanus shot was up to date).  And now, 7 years later, I still have a white scar there.

On reflection, I definitely should have milked Six Flags for something more.  I didn't even get my admission refunded.

I also have a large scar across my neck from when I had my thyroid removed.  Whenever I'm asked about it my response is... head transplant.  I get strange looks for that too.
