Grr. Nobody ever mentions me in these threads…I feel so unloved.

Hmm, my online crush? Technically I’m married to him, so I don’t know if it counts…

**Crunchy Frog** , natch. He totally cracks me up.

The guy with the cigarette up his nose — **woodstockbirdybird** — is pretty cute too.

I don’t think I need to say who my crush is on.

What about [this](http://www.geocities.com/sdpeoplepages/tatertot.html) delicious and delightful vision.

What I wouldn’t give to spend some time in her company!

Same goes in my case Euty. 🙂

Isn’t it the best feeling in the world? When you realize that that special person wants you just as bad as you want them?

(Dream sequence) I am riding my rusty old bicycle past thatched roof houses, on my way to work at the Utrecht train  
station. I am the girl who sells you the delicious soft eijs (um, is that spelled correctly?) while you wait for your train into Amsterdam, my most fav city in the whole world.

My idea of bliss - a sunny afternoon biking in the big park (forget the name) out in the country, the one with the Kroller-Muller museum. A picnic, a nap in the sun and …  
Coldfire. I will tend to the wounds from the new boots, and love will be ours.

Mr. Beckwall knows nothing of this, lets keep it hush hush.

Not to bite the hand or whatever, but my name’s **iampunha**. No L, as the saying goes:)

I will hold to my previous statement. Once I get a top 50, I’ll work on a top 5.

Hey, iampunha, you made MY list. 😉

It’s _ijs_, but you’re quite forgiven. What the hell would you do in Utrecht, anyway, when Amsterdam’s your favourite city? 😉

The park is called _De Hoge Veluwe_, and it’s quite gorgeous indeed! And for the rest… well, I don’t know what to say, honestly. Thanks. 🙂

It’ll be our little secret. Well, until he does a search for your username, of course.

Sorry iampunha-that better?  
Like I said before, when I think about Number One I get all flustered and girly.🙂  
And Number One?

For what you said in the email re this thread…thank you Stinky Paws. 🙂 And for not mocking me for my lust for that unnamed wrestler…was it THAT obvious? He’s the anti-Jeff but thanks again.🙂

Fine. See if _I_ offer to make you dinner again. 😛

[sub]Rob, honey, I’m kidding. I’ll make you dinner anytime.[/sub]

As for my crushes, they’re so far in the open that I’d be surprised if there are people who don’t know who they are. For the uninitiated, they are:

The aforementioned **robgruver** , and  
**iampunha**

D’oh! How could I have forgotten **Silky Threat**?! I have her pic in a folder in my mailbox. Her name is #3 on my list of “To Do If I Ever Get A Chance” (right under Charlize Theron and Nicole Kidman).

Oh man, this is a hard one, but here goes. Six, count em, _six_ ladies on my crush list:

In no particular order (maybe ;))

- **struuter**  
- **Scotticher**  
- **Medea’s Child**  
- **Persephone**  
- **jarbabyj**  
- **Zoggie**

And of course **Deiket** , but I think she already knows that somehow…

Anyway, you can all feel free to ignore me accordingly.

Well, I read much much more than I post, so I’m certainly not surprised that I have crushes more than inspire them.

**Uncle Bill** - Met him. Absolutely scrumtralescent.  
**Woodstockbirdybird** has just got the best photo on the people pages  
**A certain mod who’s too prudent to list his own crushes**  
**Manservant Hecubus**  
**ChiefScott**.
