Reflections on a Nose

As this photo Dan took today makes obvious, I have a very “pointy” nose. The weird thing is that I don’t perceive myself as being a “pointy-nosed” person. Perhaps because I see my nose in profile so seldom. Looking at the photo, I also appear to bear an uncomfortable head-shape resemblance to Homer Simpson.

It’s time to stop looking at pictures of myself.

More Milhouse than Homer, I’d say.

More Principal Seymour Skinner with glasses I’d say.

You are lucky — you have not got my nose

I think the nose really deserves a blog of its own. And a nose cam wouldn’t be a bad idea either (just avoid the phrase “live streaming nose cam” if you can)

I also want to say that Stephen is a show-off and that Peter really ought to have shown all of us how to create Web gimmicks in the comment boxes so that not only Stephen gets to have fun.
