Uncle Sine, I wondered to myself why it matter to you that his picture is more handsome than his looks in real life? I speculate it may be an honesty issue. If so, than that is wise to ponder.
Most people put up very glam shots of themselves on their webpage/ads/albums/editorials.
Example to make point:
I love Madonna, but they edited away a good 20 years off of her looks on her latest album covers. I hate this since she should be empowered to be the beautiful woman she is at 46 years old but anyway, I do not blame her for doing this. She wants to lure an audience. And the public is a demanding beast for youth, beauty and slender-fit-bodies. It is a necessary evil. Madonna wants to sell more records so she let's them whip out the old airbrush.
Your organist just wants to showcase himself to get some more attention. He thinks perhaps it won't matter in person he is not as much of a hottie as he made himself out to be since the young studmuffins will be floored by his wit and charm.
I would have some fun with this. I would so go for it. Set up a date, find a picture of yourself that looks different and then show up. Buy him a drink and have a laugh (you must pay for the drink since he will have a big shock of his secret being out and he needs something to steady his nerves).
You might then might find him some good company on a Friday night not just Sunday morning.
No matter what happens though, I would not "out" him (not that you were probably thinking of doing that either, I am saying this for the benefit also of your gentle readers).

The context could be a bit awkward here. This is a place of employment for him, albeit temporary. I suppose it might depend if he's hoping to make it a periodic temporary place or not. If so, it might be a bit awkward to talk about the photo. Most subs I know get a small collection of semi-regular gigs, and fill in with the one-offs. For church, I mean.

See, that's really what I don't get. All sorts of 'perfectly respectable' people these days are posting naked or near-naked pictures of themselves on the world-wide web. Do they assume only their target audience will see them? It just blows my mind actually.
I've got a friend who keeps insisting I need to do it too. "Broaden my dating-base" as it were. Never in a million years. (Although that would make an interesting link in my signature.)

Dear Sine,
I'm perplexed by the etiquette of the electronic age. A good friend of mine likes to hang around a set of web-boards, and feels they have there found some interesting friendships, though they be distant. However, my friend is prone to enthusiasms, and some time ago sent out a flock of small but sweet gifts winging there way else-where-wards. Most were acknowledged with a smile, but one or two were not, not at all. And my friend worries that they have caused offense with their fowardity.
Is it best to advise my proto-stalker-friend to forget the whole thing, or could they somehow enquire about successful delivery? Should we rather stay carefully at home behind our modems?
One would not like to provoke a situation.

Oh most exalted one, a question on the practice of "re-gifting". A dear friend at work just gave me a beautiful silk sari her son brought back from a recent mission trip to India. I have neither the body nor desire for wearing it. Also, due to some rather inquisitive Siamese who share my home, I have no way to safely display this piece of cloth. Would it be permissable to give it to a dear friend's mother, who would treasure it and be able to use it in some fashion? Thank you!

Dear Sine,
I have been invited to a reception; dress is to be "semi-formal." Way back when I was in high school (around the time of Noah), semi-formal meant short dress, formal meant long dress. What is the current attire for a semi-formal occasion? Since I have reached "a certain age," I do not feel comfortable in shorter dresses. Even my casual dresses and skirts are mid-calf or full-length. Can I wear a long skirt and top (I'm thinking dressy and maybe sparkly -- in black), or dressy slacks (black velvet) with same dressy black top? I'd like to use something already in my closet rather than spend a lot of money on this. Thanks for your knowledgeable and tasteful advice!

Oh dear. I've been remiss and didn't see this. I apologize.
You have a lot of "dear friends", don't you? Lucky you. As long as the "dear friend at work" and the "dear friend's mother" aren't the same dear friend I think you're Ok.
I used to have a not-so-dear friend who would bring me gifts of strange articles of clothing from business trips to the Far East I never knew what to do with. Like a pair of orange silk trousers from Thailand you were supposed to tie on in some way I could never figure out and were big enough to get about six of me into.
I finally gave them to Goodwill. I keep looking for some homeless person on the street wearing them.

"Semi-formal" never meant much to begin with, but now means the hosts are afraid some of the guests will show up looking as though they just finished slopping the hogs before running off to the reception. I think either of your alternatives sound fine. The main thing is not to show your navel piercing. That would be defined as "Casual".
Should any of the guests say something like "Didn't you realize this was 'semi-formal' ", just look at them haughtily and reply "Of course. That's why I didn't wear my tiara."

Dear Uncle Sine,
My courtyard is separated from the adjoining house courtyard by a high wall: the houses are constructed in a U shape with central private courtyards.
It has been some months since my neighbour hung a very tacky small metal windchime from her courtyard roof (perspex on a metal frame - hers is old and shabby, whereas mine, being architect designed and of high quality materials still looks as nice as when first erected). The chime is of cheap Chinese manufacture (in my assessment) and has a clanger in the shape of a stylised butterfly that makes unpleasant high pitched dings.
Wind chimes, as we all know, are terribly tacky, however, as we also know, I delight in tacky things. I want wind chimes too. I want nicer ones. Bigger. And more flamboyant. Something like these. But I don't want it to look like I am one-upping my neighbour.
Also, today, I heard the continous splashing of what my kitsche-hardened ears divined was a portable water feature.
I fear my neighbour has upped the ante. Please help. What would you advise?
[I have admired quite a few portable water features in my time - they are quite nice, except make me want to dash off and spend a penny. Currently my courtyard contains a divan, a round wooden table and chairs and a oldey worldey paraffin storm lantern. I am also thinking of putting white painted wrought-iron trim in the corners of the dividing wall].

While we wait for Sine...
Coot, have you felt slightly queasy or irritable at any time since these windchimes went up? If so this is most probably because the neighbour is into Feng Shui and all the evil influences that have been diverted from her place are now pouring into yours. You must take affirmative action immediately. You need an enormous set of wind chimes and a water feature (that preferably goes from north to east) to divert the stale and malignant chi. Whatever you have must be bigger and better in order to ward off the evil influence. I am sure your neighbour will understand.
Sine is however the expert on matters of etiquette and I defer to his views in this matter.

After several rereadings, I figured out that the portable water feature and sounds which are enhancing The Coot's neighbour's garden were not this.
Fortunate, since it's hard to imagine in which direction one might up the ante (discretely or otherwise) on such a feature.

Coot - Ariel is right. And you also need big mirrors facing the entrance points at which your neighbor's malign influences could be flowing into your house. To deflect them back out again, of course.
My mum has some very nice, very large african wooden windchimes - they make a pleasant (if slightly sinister) deep bonging noise rather than an irritating tinkling. It sounds like they would put your neighbor's chimes into the shade no problem.

What I had in mind was something more like this, only on a slightly smaller scale, which would be sort of invincible and chi-defying.
Also, once it got going, you wouldn't be able to hear the unpleasantly dinging wind chimes from next door's roof.

You have to make a choice. You don't want your well-muscled thighs competing for attention with your creamy bosom, do you? Pick one area to emphasize per outfit. Because if you emphasize both at the same time it might look a little...well...commercial, shall we say.
[And that advice applies to Janine too.]

Actually I think it's time to lay down the heavy burden of running other people's lives. I frequently don't sleep well at night for the worry.
But if you think Heaven won't be complete without an advice thread, you might try 'Ask Jeremiah G.'.
However let me just say how much I've enjoyed this thread and how much I appreciate KenWritez
encouraging me to do it. It's been fun.

Maybe "Sine of Times Square", if we're talking his creamy bosom and well-muscled thighs...

That's "Sine, Dear Sine, of the Times Square Sines"?
[I just realised that I've been using my usual mental mispronunciation. I do think he sounds better that way. More homely.]

But does Jerry have the necessary experience, the kind that comes with rug burns?

Sighed Sine Nomine:
Actually I think it's time to lay down the heavy burden of running other people's lives. I frequently don't sleep well at night for the worry.
However let me just say how much I've enjoyed this thread and how much I appreciate KenWritez
encouraging me to do it. It's been fun.
Much danger, long and mighty toils he bore,
In storms by sea, and combats on the shore;
All which soft sleep now banish’d from his breast,
Wrapp’d in a pleasing, deep, and death-like rest.
Thus did Ulysses sleep,
and the young men slept beside him.
Shhhhhhhhh.....
