The image you see in my profile is fabricated... at least the background is. The color has been altered to make me even less appealing (and, perhaps, appearing more "guilty").

I merely surprised myself with the camera while struggling through an especially unrelenting case of bedhead.

I chose to use this image to remind those who see it that the old addage "The camera doesn't lie" is, itself, a lie perpetrated by those who use cameras to tell further lies. In modern times, with even the most rudimetary tools and basic skills (by current standards), anyone can place you at the scene of a crime, perhaps even committing it.

Don't get me wrong. I'm a big fan of modern technology. What troubles me is that the vast majority of folks don't seem to fully grasp the implications of technology and its impact on the validity of what they may be led to believe, and, perhaps more importantly, what others may be led to believe about them.

OK... I'm off the soapbox now. Someone else's turn.
