I think for some reason, you look like an alchemist to me in this picture. Like I would come into this tiny room and you would mix powders together for me. Shelli

I thought alchemists wore pointy hats? :-)

Um, I think they just keep alembics in their offices... pointy hats, purple robes and magic wands are optional. I actually took a for-credit class on alchemy in college, back in the Dark Ages... I think I still have my textbook somewhere.
Dr. Bob,
If you were a successful alchemist, you wouldn't have to worry about hosting costs for the site, or charging for membership or finding advertising or foundation grants. I can send you my old textbook if you like.:)

>That sentence is just BEGGING for some sort of response, like a joke, or sarcasm, or pun or kidding about how old someone must be to remember alchemists in pointy hats.....something, and we know we may get a DING if we do that!! Puh-leeze do not tempt us so! None of us wants to be un-civil, but......c'mon, you can't set us up like this!

Alchemists have little second floor walkups in the village. You have that "ah, yes, I think I have something that will work for you" look. It appears the room must be pretty small, since it doesn't look like anyone could get past you. So you'd go inside and come out and do your transactions at the door, all the time maintaining that slightly mysterious smile.
THE END

So are all of your photos taken in the same room or is this a different venue?
Not that you or anyone asked my opinion or wants to know it, and my intention is not to offend, but you look a little tired/weary.

Thank you, thank you Shar! I'm still smiling from the laugh I got when I read your very accurate post. Do you find he is relaxing with his civility charges?
My interpretation of said photo: a seductive pose?! ; )
