[QUOTE=moonstarssun] Ooops…heh, heh. Sorry! :smack: I only meant someone who’s not old enough to drink legally, of course. [/QUOTE] Oh, well that makes perfect sense then, since flirting is so much easier (and enjoyable!) when lubricated by alcohol 😉 ---

[QUOTE=moonstarssun] OK, so I already had **MaxTheVool, ArchitectChore,** and **Miller** on my list of Doper crushes. Now I have to add **soulmurk**. **Grelby,** you’d be on there too, but you’re too young and it would be icky. [So here’s me, taken five minutes ago.](http://i72.photobucket.com/albums/i185/ceasterling/MyPicture_1.jpg) [/QUOTE] I’ll take what I can get! 🆒 You have nice eyes, and I like your freckles too. And I don’t mean that in a flirty way at all. [QUOTE=Sampiro] Then have them fire the village granaries, gather and shoot ten more villagers and have Monstre and or Grelby annointed in hot aromatic oils, arraigned in silks and sent to my private chambers for some ostrich florentine, pomegranate wine and Sudoku. [/quote] Oooh, that sounds pleasant, but right now it’s hot enough over here that I dunno about the oils. I’m **totally** up for some Sudoku, though. [sub]Wait… is that code for sex?[/sub] ---

[QUOTE=Aesiron] Post-weightloss? You look fairly typical (and damn cute) in that picture. I assume the reduced weight was a side-effect, not the goal? [/QUOTE] It was very much the goal, and trust me when I say that it was needed. I use that photo precisely because you can’t tell. But thanks a lot for the “damn cute”. And thanks to **malkavia** too. ---

[QUOTE=LunaV] I’m going to bookmark this thread and read it everytime I’m having a bad hair day…you guys sure know how to make a woman feel hot! [/QUOTE] Speaking of which, I just found your myspace profile, and I think my favorite pic is the last one on the pics page – holy crap, you’re adorable! And you didn’t even post that one here for us… Hmph! I hope you don’t mind if I just… whimper for a while… over the fact that I’m not the guy in the second pic you posted… 😉 ---

[QUOTE=Rigamarole] That’s a wild outfit! I’m guessing you’re part of a show? [/QUOTE] It’s a traditional Plains-style cloth dress… my drum group was in the Grand Entry and we did a few drum songs and danced as well. The dress is wool, so you can imagine how hot it was, but I wasn’t nearly as hot as the women wearing 2 layers of buckskin! ---

[QUOTE=wolfstu] O. M. G. are you ever cute. :eek: **garygnu** , you are a handsome young man. that first pic with the glasses is dreamy. [/QUOTE] Thank you. 🙂 Not too bad yourself, if I may be so bold. Along with Mrs.gnu, that makes two people who’ve told me I’m in any way attractive. (Not counting my mother, of course) To everyone else: In retrospect, my post sounds kinda rude, so I apologize to anyone who was offended. Everything was going to hell in a handbasket (still is) and I wanted a pick-me-up. ---
