Okay, this isn't a perfect scan -- I gather I'll have the chance to get one from the photographers soon -- but this will do in the meantime in that it's one of the best photos of me recently, hands down. I very rarely like the way I look! This was taken in early June at two friends' wedding:

Your hair looks particularly flowing in that pic Ned! :)

jel -- (jel), Monday, 16 August 2004 16:58 (nineteen years ago) link

It certainly was, sir! Between then and the family photos up top is when I had my usual every-six-months haircut. Split ends are pretty yugh, after all.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 16 August 2004 16:59 (nineteen years ago) link

you should get a new hairstyle, really.

Thank you no, that is, cursed by beard to, start with.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 16 August 2004 17:34 (nineteen years ago) link

why isn't there a RJG portrait in this thread?

erik, Monday, 16 August 2004 17:37 (nineteen years ago) link

You can't get annoyed with Jon for long when he posts pictures like that.

Alba (Alba), Monday, 16 August 2004 17:51 (nineteen years ago) link

I was in a cave! CAVEWEED

Catty (Catty), Monday, 16 August 2004 18:03 (nineteen years ago) link

That's a nicely dark/whimsical photo!

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 16 August 2004 18:04 (nineteen years ago) link

it captures my *essence.*

Catty (Catty), Monday, 16 August 2004 18:05 (nineteen years ago) link

YES

Red Panda Sanskrit (ex machina), Monday, 16 August 2004 18:10 (nineteen years ago) link

FUCK YEAH. Now I can die happy.

Ned Raggett (Ned), Monday, 16 August 2004 18:10 (nineteen years ago) link

it also captures my original Kate St. Claire artwork of Graham Coxon, which unfortunately has a big reflection of my IKEA lamp on it.
but you can see troy mcclure in the bottom left corner.

I've never attempted to do this before so I'll be shocked if it works...

Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:34 (nineteen years ago) link

Yay Mike!

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:36 (nineteen years ago) link

jon looks like westwood in his (awesome) cave picture.

cºzen (Cozen), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:36 (nineteen years ago) link

That is indeed a shock. Just to see your lovely face on one of these threads, I mean. Nice photo. Very you.

Alba (Alba), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:37 (nineteen years ago) link

More, Mike!

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:39 (nineteen years ago) link

Aw, shucks, guys. I'm not posting more than one pic of me here, it would be indecent. Er, you know what I mean.

But here's me trying and failing to sign my name with the fairy lights in the bathroom...

Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:49 (nineteen years ago) link

Michael Jones looks like a solemn twin of Mark McGrath of Sugar Ray.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:50 (nineteen years ago) link

How could you even say such a thing, Alex?

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:52 (nineteen years ago) link

Alex: I don't know how to take that so I won't. You can have it back.

Shame the second one doesn't have the glorious sparkling clarity of the 190k original, but what can you do? I'm keeping it lo-fi for the dial-up motherscratchers out there. Represent.

Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:55 (nineteen years ago) link

seen

Porkpie (porkpie), Monday, 16 August 2004 19:57 (nineteen years ago) link

This is totally not August 2004, but I just found it and it's quite sweet:

Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:01 (nineteen years ago) link

Mark, was that taken after that big blizzard in Denver a few years ago?

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:04 (nineteen years ago) link

Yup! I think that's outside Sarah's old flat. Happy days.

Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:13 (nineteen years ago) link

The picture of my taken for the internal website at work is pretty good, but I think it might be illegal for me to post it.

I'm going to shave my goatee tonight anyway, so I'll probably take some pics after that.

Jordan (Jordan), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:13 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm lookin' real, real ugly lately.

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:14 (nineteen years ago) link

I do not look like this:

but it's a nice photo

Porkpie (porkpie), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:17 (nineteen years ago) link

Mandee - stop beating yourself up already! You're a treat.

Alba (Alba), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:17 (nineteen years ago) link

I'm not beating myself up! I'm stating a household fact. I got a haircut that is reminiscent of this guy's:

(THIS GUY = THE BLONDE)

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:23 (nineteen years ago) link

hmm, that second one doesn't work :o(

Porkpie (porkpie), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:27 (nineteen years ago) link

Here you go, Cabs:

Markelby (Mark C), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:33 (nineteen years ago) link

Barry, you've ruined my Sugar Ray allure by revealing me to be a shortarsed fatfaced goon. Good suit, though.

Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:35 (nineteen years ago) link

There is no such thing as "sugar ray allure" - and I think you look very nice in that foto! The both of yous do.

Homosexual II (Homosexual II), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:37 (nineteen years ago) link

I am standing on a box on that picture, and yes, that was a lovely suit Michael

Porkpie (porkpie), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:38 (nineteen years ago) link

Actually, I think there is some kinda unnecessary Alan Ladd leverage going on there. I've got photos of you and Mr Baran from the same glorious day and there isn't quite the same 'am I just standing further away?' effect as above.

Michael Jones (MichaelJ), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:45 (nineteen years ago) link

I have a feeling I was actually standing on the edging stones at the side of the path. I remember balancing on them at some point, and thinking "ooh I shouldn't scuff my shoes" anyway, none can be as bad as the ones with me and Vic's Mum

Porkpie (porkpie), Monday, 16 August 2004 20:56 (nineteen years ago) link

wow george w bush attended lucylurex's graduation!

ken c (ken c), Monday, 16 August 2004 21:12 (nineteen years ago) link

So you weren't the only person to think that.
