About 2000 my roommate The Dogg came running into my room and told me I just had to check out this guy “Mahir”. Mahir was one of the earliest WWW celebrities. His page, in a broken language approxmating English, invited ladies the world over to his home in Izmir where dancing, conversation, and joviality would be assured.
An archived history of Mahir can be found, uhm, here.
Mice, intrepid internaut, has done a favor for our studied Smyrnian man-about-town, he has re-edited his page to communicate the beauty within Mahir that may not have been immediately evident from his original sentence use.
Mahir unbound, uhm, here.

I just love how Mahir naively believes that this web page thing is gonna get him some.
I should not balk, maybe in some circuitous way it did get him some. It would have to have been some very scary pop culture hanger on beast that did it though. shudder

I especially liked the swimsuit photo. I guess he figured if his prose stylings didn’t make the women surf right to Expedia, his 6’2, 73kg form would do the trick.
