Mowing hasn’t given me too many insights into the mind of **Mr Bus Guy** in the past, but I’ll give it a whirl. 😛

And yeah, I gotcha. And thanks for the compliment. But you’re just thilly. You think I’d allow a genuinely bad picture of me out? Dear lord. My face makes baby _Cthulhu_ cry.

Sadly, the role of jsgoddess will have to be played by a semi-crossdressing Jay of Jay and Silent Bob fame.

When I wear a hat, the resemblance is eerie.

And it makes me cry.

I’m told I resemble Sidney Poitier, except for the black and 70 and tall and trim part. Plus I have a beard.

Well, according to **Anastasaeon’s** site, I’m either Grace Kelly, or Chaka Khan.

Now those are two women who look _just_ like each other.

That being said, in real life I have been told that I look like Grace Kelly, but more often I’m told I look like Audrey Hepburn. However, both those gals are dead, so I guess Chaka will have to step in to play me. 🙂

I tried a different photo, and it gave me Angelica Huston. That, I can live with.

'Tis sad but true. About the closest that I can get as far as a celebrity resemblance to [my own Og-given countenance](http://www.skipmagic.net/magicboard/uploads/photo-126.jpg) is a taller and slightly thinner [Michael Moore](http://www.filmweb.no/bilder/multimedia/archive/00013/Michael_Moore_13116a.jpg). I really can’t stand the guy, but he looks like he could be my uncle.

Dude you have some great dreams. I fell in love with Audrey when I was 19 and 20+ years later I still have never had a dream about her like that. ☹

Jealous,  
Jim {My wife can’t be upset by an infatuation with a movie star from before I met her, can she? BTW: if anyone doesn’t know who Audrey is, do not watch \*\*Roman Holiday \*\* or the Original **Sabrina** , nothing good can come of it}

If someones casts [Russell Crowe](http://www.sevengraylands.com/images/not-russell.jpg) to play me, you’ll be hearing from my agent.

I want Michael Jackson or Joan Rivers to play me. Not that I look like either of them but the bragging rights would be cool.

According to the now famous **Anastasaeon** site, I’m Halle Berry, John Travolta, Bill Murray, Tim Roth, and [Gottlob Frege](http://www.philosophyprofessor.com/images/philosophers/gottlob-frege.jpg) all rolled into one.

Look out ladies! [Here](http://s75.photobucket.com/albums/i315/lightingtool/?action=view&current=me.jpg)I come!

…and just so this isn’t completely a flirt post, you guys have to tell me who I look like.

I would love Drew Barrymore to play me, but according to the site my closest matches are Kim Cattrall and Roseanne Barr!!!

OttoDaFe…what’s an OttoDeFe?

It’s what you ought not to do, but you do anyway.

Sorry, but any time I see that name that marvelous song gets planted in my head and I must share. Oh yes, it will not stop.

Carry on.

I haven’t linked to pics in a long time, so this may not work. I also don’t have time to check out that site–I hope to tomorrow, since the results seem, well, intriguing to say the least!

I am told upon occasion that I look like Nicole Kidman. I 1. don’t believe this to be true (we do share a certain coloring) and 2. don’t like her as an actress in the least. This pic was taken upon my graduation from nursing school–I look the same, just more tired and with longer, straighter hair (thank you, flatiron).  
[http://www.thenurseslounge.net/albums/Graduation/Liberal\_001.thumb.jpg](http://www.thenurseslounge.net/albums/Graduation/Liberal_001.thumb.jpg)

I’m sorry-it has just occured to me that I have no idea how to fix that coding. Could someone be so kind? (do I put brackets around it or what? If I don’t do it every day, I lose the skill-how sad is that?)

Thank you, nice person, whoever you are…
