Unless laugh lines count, only on my ample thighs. 🆒 I see you fit and tanned in safari gear, ready to play with creepy crawlies. Medium height and build, sun-bleached brown hair.

Not even close. The single word that best describes my appearance is “cyclops.” I’m waitng for a man who will gaze soulfully at me and say, “You have lovely eye.”  
[/QUOTE]

So dress like a pirate! Arr.. 😃

And I’m sure your remaining eye is lovely, but the person behind the eye is vastly more important.

Nope. Tall and skinny, with sunbleached dark brown hair. Mostly found in dresses, skirts, and heels, [unless the day is warm and sunny.](http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/beaucarnea13/album?.dir=953ere2&.src=ph&store=&prodid=&.done=http%3a//photos.yahoo.com/ph//my_photos)

Here’s a wierd one for **Shodan**. See, whenever I see his name, I think of the villain of the same name from the game _System Shock_, who looked like [this](http://www.sshock2.com/ss2mmdb/artwork/shodan.jpg). Except, when I think of the video game Shodan, I don’t think of that image. I think of [this guy](http://s91997404.onlinehome.us/images/sinistar.gif), the titular character from the video game _Sinistar_. Which means that’s who I see whenever I see the poster named **Shodan**. Which means, ultimatly, that whenever I read the “Regards, Shodan” at the end of one of his posts, what I hear in my head is, “I hunger!”

Also, when I see **Beaucarnea** ’s name, I think of Alexander the Great’s horse, Bucephalus. (Actually, I think of Baron Munchausen’s horse, Bucephalus, because I saw the movie _The Adventures of Baron Munchausen_ before I studied Greek history, but that’s neither here nor there.) Except that it has “carnea” in there, which sounds like “carnivorous.” So when I see **Beaucarnea** ’s name, I picture a [man-eating horse](http://www.zardex.com/monsters/images/Kelpie.jpg).

For **Sampiro** , I just picture Sean Astin with fangs.

Long pin straight sandy hair, pony-tale. Stylish blazer, jeans, sandles…Cup of something sweet like african blended tea, and exotically perfect intellect.

Did you want more?  
[/QUOTE]

Gosh, I like you more every day.

My hair is quite straight, but it’s shoulder length and dark dark dark brown. The jeans and sandals, yeah. I own blazers, but wear them rarely. Usually I’m in a fitted t-shirt or tank, or if it’s cold, a turtleneck sweater. I take my coffee black and my Coke straight from the can, but I do have a bizarrely enormous collection of fancy-ass teas in the cupboard. To fill in the blanks a bit, I’m also short, slender, and frequently asked if I’m Asian - olive complexion and poufy eyelids some mistake for an epicanthic fold.

In my mind’s eye, you resemble Donald Sutherland c. 1980.

Hmmm, my hair is the same color and is cut and looks much like Robert Redford…Make Matt Damon 225 instead of 180 and thats about right. Usually in Jeans and T-shirt occasionally a sport coat with that mix. Keens or loafers or my favorite Merrils, and you’ve got a 30 something Phlosphr…

And thanks, buddy.

It wasn’t really Oscar’s physical appearance, per se. It was more his mode of conversation, and general demeanor. I can’t figure out how Sim captured you so well without knowing you. 🙂

Well… I’ve seen pictures of **Sampiro** , but _before_ knowing what he looked like, I pictured him to look like [this fellow](http://www.geocities.com/~daguerreotype/reading6.JPG). To find that picture, I did a Google image search for “distinguished gentleman”, and filtered through the pictures of Eddie Murphy. But that particular picture I linked to, that was always **Sampiro** in my mind.

Aw, Sadie is so pretty! She still has puppy face. Shelby is still growing- she will be one year on April 19th- so she may get a little bit larger, so I’m thinking about adding coffee and cigarettes to her diet. Huge dog. Huge.  
Oh, and **dahfisheroo** looks like Tori Amos.

I love **WhyNot**'s post, but because of her name I always think of a petite woman with curly hair in a sailor’s suit, tying (k)nots.

**Autolycus** would look kind of like a slightly older Ron Weasly, though a little more filled out.
