Check out horny Turkish guy’s site now. It looks like someone took the poor guy’s pictures and added some false statements (“I like sex”, “She can stay my home”). Now the page is a bunch of humanitarian questions.

No, he provided a link to the fake page, and said it would stay up by popular demand.

Did you see this week’s onion? This article is on the main page:  
Turkish Man Kiss You  
IZMIR, TURKEY–According to reports, Izmir-area journalist and table-tennis enthusiast Mahir welcomes you to his homepage and kiss you. “Welcome to my page!!! I Kiss You!!!” said Mahir, who enjoys taking foto-camera of animals, towns, nice nude models and peoples. Friends and neighbors of the green-eyed, mustachioed player of many many music enstrumans reported his tall at 1.84 centimeters. Mahir also stressed that who is want to come TURKEY, he can invitate. “She can stay my home,” he said. “I like to be friendship from other country.” Those who visitate Mahir and stay his home can expect to speak numerous languages with him, as well as participate in such sports as swiming, volayball, tenis and walk. “I like sex,” Mahir added.

Assuming his message is true, I have a lot of respect for this guy. He handled the hoax a lot better than I would have.

Dammit, why did he have to come off so nice? It’s no fair!

Bastard.

He’s really hit the big time now. Today’s front page of USA Today’s “Life” section runs a story about the poor guy. Apparently, his cell phone is “melting” from all the attention he’s getting.

Wow, is that guy a class act or what?? (and a snappy dresser, to boot!)  
He STILL invites the world to Turkey to visit him and has taken it all in stride. What a great sense of humor. If you haven’t gone there and read his whole new site, please do. It’s really something.

Zette: I agree with you. This guy rocks! It takes a real man to laugh off something like this, and still be cool about it.

But I have to admit, I’m still laughing my ass off from this one:

He was the first thing I thought of when I heard about the earthquake in Turkey. I hope he wasn’t hurt or killed.

Mr. Rilch wants to say that he thinks The Nose might be a product of Photoshop. Not that he’s an expert on Photoshop, just that if the guy who hijacked the site changed the text, he might also have tampered with the photos.

I just loged on to AOL. On the Opening screen was a picture of our friend playing the accordian and the caption “I kiss you” Meet Mahir - International stud muffin. Clicking on the link brings you to a window titled Mahir, The International Heartthrob. From there you read excerpts from his page or post to the (AOL only) message boards.  
incredible!

If you read Mahir’s letter in the fixed up site, **he likes sex**! Well, he does not deny having sex.

I invitate all of you to stop by my new, humble “Tribute to Mahir” homepage. Maybe afterwards we will play volayaball. Or perhaps shop for a new Speedo.
