I once worked with a gentleman called Matt, who after repeated demands for his time sheet, finally faxed in a photocopy of the floppy disk it was stored on.

For a signature, your best bet is to trample your name in a corn field and send in a Google-maps link to the resulting image.

This was time sensitive; and many of the google/bing map overheads in my area are several years old. I couldn't wait that long to get a reply out...
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Printscreen isn't the most elegant way to get from PDF to picture, but other than that I've done that too. 
What is this talk of release? I do not release software. My software escapes leaving a bloody trail of designers and quality assurance people in its wake.

Unfortunately, there are n't any free online tools available to edit it.

The latest version of Foxit Reader (free) has some editing capability.

I've used this in the past, worked well enough and was free:

However, not much different than the Paint solution above

I assumed you were passed out in a gutter somewhere in a Gin fueled stupor, and would turn up later in a lady's pink crimplene hat and a pair of yellow fishing waders, with no money and the username of "Emily Berkenstein".

That would explain a few things, I've been corresponding with an Emily Berkenstein on a singles site and finally got a picture a while ago clickity[^].

Let's see if you can break the record again! 
Two days, hmm, no breaking out in sweats or seeing pink CP Bobs?
It was broke, so I fixed it.

How do you really feel about there not being a brass-band playing when you came back because no one noticed you were gone:  ?
“But I don't want to go among mad people,” Alice remarked.
“Oh, you can't help that,” said the Cat: “we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.”
“How do you know I'm mad?” said Alice.
“You must be," said the Cat, or you wouldn't have come here.” Lewis Carroll

According to the Guinness Book of World Records, India ranks third behind the USA and the UK in the number of records claimed each year. But this leaves out the large number of often bizarre and obscure record claims that never make it to the Guinness Book, but that are compiled in similar local compendiums such as the Limca Book of Records and the India Book of Records.
The records include:
- the longest garland made of cakes of cattle dung (2 km)
- performing yoga on horseback (10 hours)
- lighting electric bulbs by passing a wire through one's nose and out of one's mouth (30 sixty-watt bulbs)
In 2007, a 15-year-old boy, under the watchful eye of his doctor parents, performed a caesarean section in a hospital in Tamil Nadu, in an attempt to be recognised as the world's youngest surgeon. Unsurprisingly, the police and the medical authorities took a dim view of this particular attempt on a world record.

I'm pretty damn sure the mother wouldn't be that impressed either...

It's been 7 years, I'm curious what eventually happened. Were the boys idiot gene donors jailed for what they did? Normally I'd ask if their medical licenses were revoked too; but clearly that wouldn't stop them.
