He is one of the reasons why...

On my way to the closest starbucks from my home, there is this museum. They curently have this huge ad on the wall of the museum. It gets my attention every time I pass by because the guy is really good looking in my personal opinion. His name is Kumagusu Minakata. He was a super smart mycologist born like 140 years ago. This photo was taken when he was 24 years old in San Francisco. He was a geeky weirdo. He easily got hot and sweaty so he took off his clothes whenever he wanted (heh) and he couldn't get settled in one place. He went to the United States to study and UK as well. Ergo, he was super fluent in English. Now, this was more than 100 years ago. So it's not really easy to be too revealing nor go to the States like we do now. Anyway, he even worked at the British Muesume. Because he was too

Hmm, he is very handsome. I'd be fine if he wanted to take his clothes off... 140 years ago.

Very handsome. And it's somewhat surprising that he would have been accepted in this country 100 years ago considering his "uniqueness"! ;)

As they say, the brain is a very sexy organ... no wonder you're attracted to both his genius and gorgeous genes. :)

how i've missed you! welcome back!
for what it's worth, i think that you're better looking. i bet he couldn't have done what you do on a computer (i mean if he were transferred to our times), afterall, he studied fungus not complicated computers and programming.
a friend of mine worked on her phd here. her focus was fungus that grows on wheat stems. under her name in emails she had "the fungus among us."

Hi Joe,
Yeah, he is quite hot. But there is a rumor he was virgin until he was 40. :-) You have a wonderful day!
Hi Circuit Boy,
Well, I am glad he is dead now :-) I mean if he was alive and 140 years old, that would freak me out. You have a wonderful day!
Hi T.Kevin,
Yes, he is. I think his eyes make him sexier than ever :-) I wonder how many minutes he had to hold like that though. you have a wonderful day!
HI Kirin,
Yeah, he is. I wonder how the country entrance (Immigration) system worked back then though. I am sure he didn't have his passport. :-) You have a wonderful day!
Hi Mark,
Yup he is very sexy but then I wouldn't be turned on when he talked about the blue cheese's mold :-) nope, I am not that kinky. You have a wonderful day!
Hi Naomi,
Thank you! I am better looking? Wow, I am honored but so not true :-) he is prettier. :-) I think fungus is more interesting than computers in my opinion but I was more interested in Organic Chemistry but I didn't have a chance to be a chemist :-( You have a wonderful day!
HI William,
If there is a machine to go back in time. :-) You have a wonderful day!
