A “new” portrait?

Photograph of Stilgherrian roaring at the camera

I just found this photo of me which ’Pong took in July 2002. I’m now using a version on my Twitter profile. Should it be my permanent image?

You look like you’re having an “Exorcist” moment there. Were you using crucifixes in inappropriate ways?

@Snarky Platypus: If it involves a crucifix, can it ever be inappropriate?

Not unless you fancy new interesting pen friends whose return address includes “cell block H”.

Hurry up and post things so we can get this hideous monstrosity off the front page. I’m tired of switching browser windows everytime random people walk by the screen.

Jeez, people, you need to toughen up a bit! I was doing my morning shower’n'shave ritual and hadn’t quite finished cleaning up after the shave… and I didn’t appreciate being disturbed. It’s not that bad, is it?

I have some, erm, far more disturbing photos I could post if you like…?

This reminds me of that baby eater from Pan’s Labyrinth.
Ofelia learned the hard way never to touch the food from his table, as it seems ‘Pong now understands never to disrupt your morning ritual, Stil.

@Stephen Stockwell: ’Pong learned that lesson a long time ago… though the scars are only just beginning to fade.

Script Challenge solved, finally!

08 February 2012 in Language, Personal

On 4 August 2007, I set a challenge. Could people decipher a passage of English text written in an unknown script? Well yesterday, 66 months later, dario finally posted a solution. Congratulations, Sir! As I mentioned in my follow-up comment, it turns out that the text wasn’t the work of Ursula K Le Guin as [...]
Talking major sports’ future on ABC 702 Sydney

07 February 2012 in Conversations, Internet, Media

If you’d asked me last week what I thought I’d be doing this week, the answer would not have included “writing and talking about the future of the major sporting codes as televisions events”. But I wrote this thing in the newspaper… Last week federal court judge Justice Steven Rares ruled that Optus’ TV Now [...]
The 9pm Edict #17A

07 February 2012 in The 9pm Edict

Residents of the depressingly tight-sphinctered Melbourne suburb of Prahran torture their dogs. True. And it’s ugly. Also this week, Australia gets a new masthead for quality journalism, and everyone goes all wet and judgemental. Something something football on the internet. And I finish all the things that I meant to do on New Year’s Eve [...]
Talking “The Global Mail” on Radio 2SER

06 February 2012 in Conversations, Internet, Media

I thought I’d be too busy today to pay much attention to the new quality Australian news outlet The Global Mail. But then around 2pm I got a call from Radio 2SER in Sydney asking for a comment. And so it was that at 2.30pm I was interviewed for the station’s current affairs program The [...]
Weekly Wrap 87: Rain, unseasonable risk and videos

05 February 2012 in Weekly Wrap

My usual weekly summary of what I’ve been doing elsewhere on the internets. This post covers the week from Monday 30 January to Sunday 5 February 2012. It was an odd week. It rained. A lot. And the continual greyness felt like it was threatening to trigger seasonal affective disorder unseasonably. I figured it was [...]
