**SwampBear** is at least 6’2", BIG guy, with a huge dark beard and waders.  
[/QUOTE]

Absolutely! And a big ol’ jolly grin. Not so much Santa Claus as Grizzly Adams.

**Beaucarnea** - had I not seen the pitcures of you in the Rock and Mineral threads, I would have thought young Jane Goodall. I wasn’t far off 🙂

Boy, are you a nerd! Everyone knows that Sean Astin is a hobbit!  
[/QUOTE]

All I know about Lord of the Rings is that Sean Astin and some other little dude stood around on a rock trying to get somewhere. Then I changed the channel. I guess I _AM_ a nerd.

By the way, Synesthetics-wise, I’m a 6, I think. And yellow.

He’ll probably hurt me, but I was gonna say Grizzly Adams in hot pants. (please don’t hurt me Swampy…at least not too much!)  
**Anaamika** is most certainly very beautiful with long wavy hair and a cute smile, delicate features and probably a twinkle in her eyes. 🙂

Yep, that’s pretty much the plot in a nutshell. There was some filler material, but basically it was about a couple short guys trying to return some jewelry.

I wish I had Jane Goodall’s natural beauty and fine, delicate features. I am tall with longish dark hair and very strong features and cheekbones- more like angry French girl than peaceable naturalist. But I would be honored to have a tenth of Jane’s character. (so thanks, even if you didn’t intend a compliment)

[QUOTE=Antinor01]  
I can totally see that.

**Skald The Rhymer** is right about 6’ tall, with short and well maintained hair. Being the creative type though he sometimes shaves himself bald though (as the mood strikes). I imagine him to look sort of like a young Billie Dee Williams. (speaking of which, where has Skald been lately?)  
[/QUOTE]

Right here!

I’m trying not to wallow in self-pity today. I’m flattered to have been missed.

I’m not 6 feet tall; I think I’m somewhere between 5"7 & 5’10", but since I don’t care I never bother actually measuring. And I do alternate between being insanely hirsute (my favorite niece calls me Mufasa at such times) and shaving every hair not prefixed with the word “eye” from my head.

I see tomndebb as more Peter MacNicoll type, myself. I thought Anaamika was gorgeous long before I saw a photograph that confirmed it. And Diogenes the Cynic looks not unlike Papa Smurf, except taller and less blue.

Shoshana has very short hair and great cheekbones and jawline and a very direct gaze. Like Jamie Lee Curtis or Connie Nielsen.

I see Shoshana as a very exotic looking woman. Long dark wavy hair, dark eyes, and very tall and thin.
