Hope that’s okay, **tdn**! I ask again – you _sure_ you’re married? If we’re going for our younger selves, Peter Frampton could once have played me. ---

The role of Cartooniverse will be alternately played by Jabba the Hutt and Wallace Shawn. Depending on how much articulation is required for the given scene. 😃 😃 😃 ---

> [@Rodgers01](#): > > …In reality, I’d probably be played by White Guy #2 – generic, not too distinctive looking bystander… If White Guy #2 was standing at the bar in a roadhouse, the Generic Big Biker Dude in the background holding a pool cue under the neon beer sign would be me. Later when the bar fight breaks out I’d toss White Guy #2 onto a round table that shatters into splinters just before I get knocked out by a captain’s chair to the upper back. Sorry, **Rodgers01** , that’s the part I look like I should play. At least in my mind. I’ve been told numerous times I bear more than a passing resemblance to a young…I dont’ know if I can admit it…naah, I can’t…a young…no, I can’t…a young…OK, gathering up all my courage…young Santa Claus. Personally I don’t see it. Ruddy complexion, nose like a cherry, belly like a bowl full of jelly, twinkle in my eye, red stocking cap when it gets cold. But my beard is white only when it’s below 10 degrees. ---

The site says Matthew Broderick. [What do you think?](http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f295/bedgyro/MattMatt.jpg) Can’t say I disgree, plus Matthew is my real first name. (Shhhhh.) Or, for the literary-minded, [H.P. Lovecraft](http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f295/bedgyro/HPgnu.jpg). The only person anyone has ever said I look like is Jimmy Stewart. [aside] Did anyone else notice that site matches more on the angle of your head and the expression on your face than anything else? [/aside] ---

The role of **Shirley Ujest** will be played by **Rosalind Russell** and since she is not available, ( being dead since 1976) **Joan Cusack** has the comic timing to match that pleases Ms. ujest to no end. ---

All I can say is _damn_ Roseanne Barr for getting all that plastic surgery and getting un-funny and stuff. Cuz now I don’t know _who_ will play me! However, by this time next year, I expect to be down by 100 pounds or so, so I’ll have to see who I end up looking like. Strange. ---
