TAM6 - what do you look like?

"I don't think this is the most attractive photo of me. However, camaras don't usually pick up what I really look like...apparently except when I'm annoyed. I wanted to post something that hopefully really looks like me. So, here it goes.

My husband says that this is the expression I get on my face everytime he says something stupid.

I've named this photo "I can't believe he just said that"

Too funny. I have that same expression a lot.

Hee. Me too. In photos I generally look either sleepy or annoyed with the photographer.

That depends on whether they're hot ... and whether they vote for me in The Language Award.

Well... I've voted for you for TLA before, which one of you qualifications weighs heaviest in your decision making?
 
Trying to win a million dollars at last year's TAM. (I'm on the left.)

Here's a picture of me (female in front) when the Dogma Free America guys came to town--

I post this so that my enemies will know who to avoid, my stalkers will know who to stalk... and Dr. A can be apprised of who might be stalking him. (Kidding). (And also so that that anyone who likes me can protect me from Claus who plans to do something or other to me at TAM for some imagined travesty I've committed.)

:D

Unfortunately unable to make it to TAM6 (wish I'd known about the scholarships earlier), I here announce my commitment to TAM7. It'll be my first trip to the USA, and the furthest from home I'll have been since Fiji.

And here's my picture:

No, I won't be taking that costume on the plane. Too heavy.
 
So much flirting, so few pictures...

In an attempt to remedy both of those situations, here's a picture of me with my lovely wife and daughter. They will be in Vegas with me, spending money while I attend the conference.

Also, Dr A - After all these years of reading your posts, I had no idea you were Billy Idol (or at least channelling his hair and part of his sneer)...
 
Hello everyone. My name is Salvatore and I'm truly excited to be on this forum. I recently found out that I'm able to be in Vegas during TAM! I had to get on this board and get to know some of you beforehand. I'm a recent "official" skeptic, but it was only a slight shift from from my lapsed Catholic religiously ambiguous self.
I already can't remember what was the catalyst: The God Delusion, Skepticality, or Penn's radio show. They were all early influences.
I'd like to admit right away, that I'm a regular dumb guy. I have little academic background. I was top of my class in elementary school. A relocation in Jr. High but me into slacker mode and while I was kept in top classes due to my "potential" I guess I was both an inspiration to my teachers as well as a disappointment. I spent many years being a pothead on and off, drifting through life, making out OK, but not wealthy or anything. I dumbed myself down a lot to cut a cooler figure with my friends, but now I'm pushing to get back into an active intellectual life. I'm starting college finally, and hope to really start exercising my 'potential.' Let's hope it's still there.
Personally, I'm a irreverent, funny, sometimes silly guy. I'm rather shy and may come across as standoffish, but that's just my bad way of trying to look relaxed. It's a Philly thing maybe. On my best days I can be the life of the party, other times I may sit back and be voyeur. But I'm really very friendly and always up for a debate on most anything.
My interests tend to be associated with pop-culture: TV, movies, toy collecting, punk rock history. I'm, from time to time, an obsessive fan of Siouxsie (of Banshees fame)
I like playing with Photoshop, everything from photo repairing and retouching, to psychedelic patterns. I do some time on the PS2, but more often am on Scrabulous.

Well, I guess that's more than enough for my first post.
I'll post some pics when I can, but since I'm a new member I have to clear some benchmarks. You can check out my myspace page if you'd like, it's slash salvatore.

Salvatore, if you want, you can PM it to one of the older members who has posted here recently and they can post it for you (if you don't want to wait until you get to 15 posts).
 
If anyone is that impatient, they can check out my flickr page as well. just search for fatewilleatyou there. My 15 messages should go quick. There's two.

Feel free to put up a link on anything there(any photos that contain depictions of intercourse are simulated)

Hi Salvatore
Welcome to the forum!
If you have any questions, PM one the longer-standing forumites - we're a fairly friendly bunch. When you register for TAM, ask the person who deals with you how to get in touch with forum members. There should be a message board or somesuch. Look at the TAM events thread - there's lots of stuff going on. Don't forget the forum party on the Saturday.
TAM tends to be a life-changer; if you don't enjoy it, if you don't find it stimulating and thought provoking - you're probably dead..................:eek:
