Of course! I’ve always said what I needed was a wife. 🙂

For the record, I have dark brown hair and brown eyes. I’ll keep the attractive part, though. And for the record, what would off-puttingly motherly look like?

They’re coming, they’re coming. It’s just taking me longer than expected to paste my head on Naomi Campbell’s body.

**Drainbead** , I’ve already seen a picture of you, but I must say you look a lot like what I expected. Very pretty. And if you have kids with Brian, they are going to have HAIR!

1. Unless I missed something in the briefing, Fierra’s haircolor ain’t dyed blonde.

2. Your fault for clicking on my picture:) Also your fault for going to too many porn sites.

Baby I am smiling 😃

Intimate position… OK

Compromising, intimate position … really OK

Position # 305 in the Kama Sutra… We’ll just have to see if we can work that out!

As far as tonight though , I’m afraid I’ll have to take a raincheck. I have another commitment. Mr. 57 and I have a reservation at Madame Priscilla’s Burning House of Love and Pancakes that took 4 months on the waiting list to get into and I must say I am pretty excited about it. 😉

Don’t worry about the Mr. though, he don’t mind if you don’t. Hell, someone has to run the video equipment.

Well, my friend Monica has a cat named Brat, so every time i see your name, I picture a grey cat-man with a pointy face, dressed up in a cape. Kinda like a more evil version of the episode of Tom and Jerry when Tom somehow turned into a superhero of some sort (which I only remember vaguely, and even that only because I dressed up as Tom from that particular episode for Halloween when I was 3. I was a weird-ass kid). Anyway, that’s how I picture you. If you ever get Chrono Cross, picture Lynx, only as a grey cat and with a more flashy superhero outfit, complete with cape, tights, and big-ass belt.

Must be that “007”. I think of Pierce Brosnan as James Bond.

To be honest, my other mental image was of Michael Keaton as Bruce Wayne. 🙂

No, it’s not. Also, I don’t think we have Feria in this country (UK). I only worked out what it is from someone else’s post. I actually have longish (mid shoulderblades) dark blonde hair, hazel eyes - and I would give someone confusing directions to send them to the mazy marsh, rather than back to the beginning - after all, they _might_ find their way from there!  
& I’d wear slightly more than just tights - I’d get too cold otherwise - sorry to disappoint you, xizor!  
But I definitely like xizor’s description best!

Sauron…really tall, thin, dressed in black, 4 fingers on one hand. And vague but penetrating eyes.

Hypergirl…I’d say about 16, sporty and really bad at history. (I don’t know why…)

Someone do me…I know I’m new…

Scotti, dear, don’t be upset, but I do picture the most adorable little scottish terrier, with a blue bow around it’s neck, looking up and wagging it’s tail…what can I say…I love critters…

**racinchikki** - ok, this may be somewhat obscure for some of you, but does anyone remember [Rikki-Tikki-Tavi](http://www.bnl.com/shorts/stories/rtt.html)? For some reason “mongoose” was the first thing I thought of when I saw that name.

**Scotticher** - you’re a good-looking redhead wearing a mini-kilt. Nice legs.

**honkeytonkwillie** - I envision a white-trash version of the President. No offense.

**iksova** - I don’t know if you’re male or female, but with that name I’m leaning towards female, so I picture you as a mysterious and sexy Russian agent, like in a James Bond movie.

**AudreyK** - I have to say that Audrey Hepburn was one of the first things to pop into my mind, beautiful and elegant.

**hypergirl** - I picture a cute, although in need of some tranquilizors, young woman. Give her a year or two and she may be old enough to do what we’re doing in the flirtation thread. (I have a feeling if you snuggled onto my lap IRL, I may get taken to jail)

Thanks Bratman…And yaas I’m F…As for you, I’m hearing 007 music but I’m seeing Colin Mochrie (Whose line is it Anyway?). Doesn’t help that I watched it this morning 🙂

Racinchikki: Small, lithe, dressed in bright racin’ colours and leather gloves.

honkytonkwillie: You must be about 7 feet tall, man! Do you have to duck through most doorways? maybe its just the hat.

Mongooses are related to weasels and ferrets. IIRC they grow to about 4 feet long. I’d post a link to a pic for you, but I’m too lazy to do a search right now.
