For anyone who doesn't have a scanner, but who would prefer to send their picture more quickly than snail mail- I took my printed photograph to a quick-copy place and they scanned it onto a diskette as a jpeg for me. It cost me about $7.00, American.

And the copy guy had a really nice smile on his face by the time he was finished scanning. He was a very nice man.

Alison,

My photo, which I will be sending you via snail-mail, will be somewhat delayed. I'm laid up with a pinched nerve and can't get to the post office. Will try next week.

Rowana

PS - Am accepting all suggestions that might help me unpinch this nerve. I'm going to a chiropractor daily and had a massage today. Recovery is very slow. It's starting to depress me.

kendall, I think by "ordinary photos", alison means pictures printed on paper, as opposed to electronic images. You still have to be naked.

Dang. Well. We DON'T get digital cameras in this class. I'm getting some color film today. I'll just take it with my 35mm and have it developed. I don't care if anyone else sees it. It's not like I'm that much to look at.

Noone told me we were going ahead or where to send photos. Last I heard we were deciding which month we were in and everyone seemed to want to keep their clothes on! We are still hoping to send ours soon but we are cameraless at the moment so it may be after Christmas it arrives. Where do I send them? Are we still going in our birthday months as well as suits(Ineed this info to decide if Geoff and I should be together or apart. Actually since we will be taking the photos that is irrelevant!)
Thank goodness I just bought the autoharp!!!!!!

Personally I think it's a great idea. Like The Full Monty. I heard a news story awhile ago on NPR about some middle-aged very proper British women putting together a nude calendar. I will get one when they're ready! Then maybe next year I can convince Mister to let me play too. :)

Well, Uncle Jaque, I do appreciate your concern. However, it is for the Mudcat after all, and we must all do our part.

If you want to know how it looks, think "dangerous" and buy the calendar when it comes out.

YeGads, Carol: I would think that a responsible Musician, especially of the fair gender, would be well advised to employ a certain level of protective attire when playing that accordion!

Although not conversant with the instrument personally, I would speculate that with those pleated bellows expanding and contracting, things could get... well.. caught up in the works, so to speak. If you were playing "Cajun", I suppose that the abrupt, forteissimo high-alto vocalization which might reasonably attend such an accident (risk of which would be significantly greater on the "squeeze" stroke)would fit right in with little notice taken by the presumably inebriated audience (it seems somewhat incongruous that a Lady would be performing topless before an audience much given to sobriety - unless of course the gig were at a "Naturalist" gathering... but rumor has it that Nudists are not much given to the accordion, and upon due reflection, I can rather imagine why).

Associated sensations might interject a certain degree of distraction, which would not, I opine, contribute in any positive way to your virtuosity. And I suspect that there may be someone in your life with a vested interest in the integrity and well - being of your body, complete with all of it's associated appendages and accessories.

So please, do be carefull; after all, "It's for the Children", my Deah...

I am not going to take piccies with my regular camera and have someone develop the film! I'd borrow a digital camera if anyone I knew had one. Can't afford to buy one now. So, unless you want me to do something odd with my scanner, I'm stuck. (I could scan a black and white shot of me in a bath tub at around age 1, but somehow I don't think it's what you're looking for.)

kendall and Naemanson are both in Maine, right? kendall, you could contribute to the calendar by taking Naemanson's picture.

Naemanson, you don't really have to be nude. I had a (platonic) friend take my picture and I was wearing something under my accordion that you can't see in the picture, so it just looks like I'm nude. Didn't want to be cruel to my friend. (However, the guy at the copy place where I had it scanned looked like he was having trouble keeping a professional demeanor while scanning. And I have to go back and have it re-scanned. Poor guy.)
