**TVeblen** : Like **Torgo** , I see this as someone named Eblen (or a reasonable facsimile thereof) who watches a lot of TV. **Lobsang** : A singing crustacean, sort of like the crab in “The Little Mermaid.” (Each little clam here/Know how to jam here …) **Spogga** : A frog-like creature that is also a very cool frood. (I like frogs.) **Nurse Carmen** : Big buy, beard, white uniform (skirt, not pants), and orthopedic shoes. All of the above are cool in my book. More to come later … ---

**El\_Kabong** - a hippy-looking, dope-smoking, guitar-playing “koom-by-ya” kinda dude…or a walking, talking marijuana cigarette… **Wang\_Ka** - Ming the Merciless, with a cowboy hat and boots…or a bearded guy with dark hair and glasses, in a hawaiian shirt and denim jeans or denim shorts with Birkenstocks **Ryan\_Liam** - Liam Neeson, playing Rob Roy…I think it’s the idea that the name Ryan has an “R” in it, plus of course, the “Liam” thing. What 'bout me, folks? ---

Thanks, **skeptic\_ev** …I keep getting the “Boogie Nights” Dirk **DIGGLER** thing, and I just keep hoping and praying SOMEONE out there still reads BOOKS! ---

**Fenris** reminds me of [Vladimir Kulich,](http://us.imdb.com/name/nm0474520/) for some reason. …I figure that I’ll be lucky if I remind anyone of Peter Lorre. ---

I used to picture **Wildest Bill** with an enormous handlebar moustache. I see **GingerOfTheNorth** as Queen Frostine from Candyland (the board game from Milton Bradley). And she’s married to Weird Al Yankovic ( **Weirddave** ). **Slainte** is a brunette version of the lusty barmaid from the [St. Pauli Girl](http://www.stpauligirl.com/) label, the one everybody in the joint wants to take home. ---
