That is not my picture, I'll have you know, and although last night's party was lightly attended, it was quite pleasant, with plenty of food and good conversation, and it went on until midnight. I had no idea how louche Grrlscientist was, though…I should have gotten a photo of her dancing on the table with the lampshade on her head, but I figured it would be breaking her anonymity to publish it.

i put the lampshade back in its place so it's as if nothing never happened, but that picture of you weeping is still on my site.
of course, i will take it down if you insist .. for a price!
One word, my friend: Photoshop. You could easily blur any identifying characteristics...
What's the risk to anonymity if the lampshade was on her head?
Kieran asked
The tattoos? :)
If she has a lampshade on her head how do we know it's really grrlscientist? Could be an anonymous squid groupy and we would never be able to tell. Stangely defensive post...
PZ's right, that picture can't be him...it's of a much younger man. Where's the gray?
Sorry, I meant to ask if anyone has actually ever seen anybody dance on a table with a lampshade on his/her head? I've heard about it all my 59 years, but I've yet to see it.
Kieran (well, and RBH); PZ is afraid you all will recognize me by my tattoos -- the lampshade didn't cover them up.
Well, there goes the anonymous squid groupy theory. I'd still hold out for, maybe, a Dawkins DVD before I removed the picture...
well, yes, as i said, i can be bought, and a Dawkins DVD is a reasonable payment to remove the incriminating evidence from my site. until i want something else from PZ, at which time i shall drag it out again, polish it up and post it.
It's a great picture, though. It speaks volumes. Better copyright it.
All jokes aside, can someone explain to me what really happened?
Hah, you managed to stump my Webster's in 5 letters. Looking up "louche" on the 'net, I found a blog of that name (http://www.acidtripping.com/) and that in turn pointed me at an oddball site -- Retrievr (http://labs.systemone.at/retrievr/). There you can search Flickr for images based on a Paint-style sketch!
Gaah, 6 letters. I better stop before I make any more typos. :-)
No one dances on tables any more, for fear of ending up on "America's Funniest Home Videos."
