I think it's a fake. Or - he's perfect. :)

I've cut the top mirroring part, turned it 180°, made it cyan and layered it over the bottom part with 50% opacity. They almost match.

Quite possibly (it's fake). This site has (only) the top part all over the place -- http://www.chopin.pl/ .

Maybe he reminds you of someone...

If only I knew people that stylish :P

Hmm, that must be it. Wishing I could be as pimp-styling as that portrait...

Recently I received a "like new" CD from a third-party vendor that wasn't quite. IMO.

More disappoints. I think I will stay away from "like new" CDs, unless I'm desperate.

Hehe, I often find myself wondering what second hand sellers are on - it must be powerful. Their sense of optimism in talking up the quality of an item to make a sale is not tempered by the realisation that people can give them negative feedback for doing so...

It's the same with books. I've had "VG" condition ones come both discoloured, with spinal creasing and dog ears. In the case of book sellers, I am starting to think that the criteria is based on "average" meaning "falling apart/has no spine" and poor meaning "has no binding, pages only" or something... ::)

Edit: cat compromise, whee :3

I'm pretty sure it involves a guy named Jesus from The Big Lebowski, though I've never seen it.

Also, @fellow name-changers: we should probably all agree to change our names back soon, per forum decorum quorum.

Yes, I've already complied.  I was really bored and giddy yesterday.  I am getting a little cabin fever, except substitute Europe for cabin.

Only bored? If you want to sleep, Germany offers Herrn Steinmeier. He's the SPD's (biggest opposition party) candidate for chancellorship.*yawn* *fell asleep* A german Satire Magazine (Titanic) wrote: "Prinz Valium". :D
