Sweet. I’ll randomly be on the streets of the Bay Area next week. I guess I’ll just have to hit on every woman I meet in hopes that it is her. I predict I’ll need a cold compress to reduce the swelling by the end of the first day.

This could be construed as very optimistic or very pessimistic, depending on where you think you’ll need to put that compress. 🆒

Ha! I’d love to see it, but I don’t think it’s online. It was made by a disgruntled parent who was pissed off that **Mr. Bus Guy** wouldn’t move his 8 year old daughter’s bus stop (and, of course, the bus stop of half a dozen other kids) one house to the left so that he (the father) could watch her from his living room window while she waited for the bus. :rolleyes:

He’s got a lot of fun Crazy Parent stories, he does!

**picunurse** paints as a hobby. I know cause she made me a real cool skyline of Seattle painting when we had swampfest in Seattle year before last.

**FairyChatMom** (who really is a cheap date 😃 ) has a dog that lurves butt skritches (Bernie) and she and **FairyChatDad** adopted an older stray dog (Scruffy) which has earned them major karma points in my book.

**VunderBob** has a “frankenfinger”.

**SeanFactotum** is the poster child for middle-aged straight white guys.

**MamaTigs** makes really purty knitted stuff like scarves and such.

**twickster** once wrote a logic puzzle based loosely on The Dope, using Doper screen names. I was honored to be one of 'em!

**Shodan** is the proud uncle of a football player who was drafted way high up at the end of last season. I remember reading the thread, and that nephew went fishing during the draft, but don’t remember the nephew’s name. (I’m sure one of you nice football fans will promptly provide it, though.)

Yes, **Sarahfeena** , I’m pretty sure my previous image of you was blonde + twinsets. Also older.

**swampbear** periodically acts as nanny for a chihuahua named Joe Dawg.

The name **pulykamell** is Hungarian. Rumor has it it means chicken breast.

GT (Who also had a very nice time at the ChiDopeFest)

**badkittypriestess** is the daughter of a highly decorated lieutenant general (no one that’s ever been on the news)[/QUOTE

What, no love for the moderators?

**Czarcasm** is a wicked conversationalist with an unfortunate tendency to not spill the beans on banned posters, though otherwise delightful at Portland-area Dopefests.

**TubaDiva** has interests in typefaces and in jazz.

**Lobstermobster** is a cutie. If I was single and 30 years younger, I’d hope my Mom called her to be my babysitter. And if she was 30 years younger, her Mom would probably have some really bad cramps… 😃

**Mouse\_maven** is a new mother from Canada who could easily filet a mouse (or mouse-shaped objects / stupid university administrators) with a scalpel blindfolded and with an angry zeal not seen since Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine in ‘X-MEN’.

“You got some tenure for me, bub…?” 😃

**Lobstermobster** , **DungBeetle** , and **Wile E** , and **Vinyl Turnip** are wicked quippers. Also, \*\*Dung Beetle \*\* and \*\*Lobstermobster \*\* are extra-cute. I’m sure that **Wile E** and **Vinyl** are also cute, but I can’t prove it.

**elelle** is closer to understanding The Meaning of Life than anyone I have ever known. She _knows_ things.

Gxi estis aready mentioned tio **Sunspace** paroli Esperanto.

**fisha** is a girly construction worker, and we have twin blue merle Great Danes.

\*\*faithfool \*\* has an unshakeable commitment to honesty, and **Zoe** _forgives_.

\*\*toadbriar \*\* is the only living human to have captured [faerie specimens](http://www.flickr.com/photos/kimhotep/sets/573408/). Hey rat people! (selkie!) Look at **toadbriar’s** prints on Ebay! Keyword: dancing rats
