What'd I miss?

Uisge Beatha · 08-04-2007, 12:33 PM

Bruce, I think HLJ was referring to my attempt (in post #756) to jokingly play off the whole initial/name thing.

xoxoxoBruce · 08-04-2007, 07:05 PM

Oh, ok.

Griff · 08-04-2007, 07:34 PM

Bald is cool, but Little Lord Fauntleroy pants, geriatric support hose and hi-tech sneakers, are a fashion faux pas of the first order.

Griff · 08-05-2007, 06:06 AM

Hey, that stings!

Sundae · 08-04-2007, 07:48 PM

If you're in the bald guy pool Griff, you're cheating!
Very dashing btw

Griff · 08-04-2007, 07:58 PM

I believe that is the optimum hair angle, but thanks!

Uisge Beatha · 08-04-2007, 08:20 PM

It shouldn't surprise me when people don't look quite the way I pictured them, but I will need a bit of time to get used to the glasses. I suppose that sounds silly but that's what struck me. Anyway, looking good, Griff. Oh, by the way, I really don't think you could fool anybody there by trying to hide an épée behind your back.

DanaC · 08-04-2007, 08:49 PM

Okay...can someone explain the camera thing to me? I got lost somewhere.

Uisge Beatha · 08-04-2007, 09:03 PM

He Likes Joking was just pulling our collective leg, Dana. I must say, he presented a pretty story, and the general confusion here helped muddle the whole thing enough to make me go back and re-read the last few pages again.

Uisge Beatha · 08-04-2007, 09:17 PM

Aha! HLJ's photo was taken with a Canon PowerShot A95. Below is a picture of that camera, which does not match the one HLJ is holding. Forget the color and look at the viewfinder of the A95. Now look at HLJ's camera - not the same. I think this one is officially debunked.

Whiskey Beat - you're going to have to change your name to Whiskey Snopes. That was some excellent deducting.

We're sitting in London Heathrow airport awaiting the final leg of our flight to Frankfurt. We've been awake pretty much since yesterday morning.

That is all.

DanaC · 08-04-2007, 09:24 PM

But....How could you know that? How could you know what camera took the picture? *is getting very confused*.

Uisge Beatha · 08-04-2007, 10:12 PM

Aha, yet again. In emulating the Sherlock Holmesy-like efforts Shawnee made earlier, I have downloaded HLJ's original photo and examined its properties:

In My Computer or Windows Explorer right-click the file name.
Select Properties from the context menu.
Go to the Summary tab. If you see blank boxes and an Advanced button, click the button.
Scan down to find the Camera Model.

[Basil Rathbone] Simple deduction, my dear Dana. [/Basil Rathbone]
