If you picture me, just picture me ice skating while holding hands with the **Seige** and **'nilla** , a great big smile on my face.

**Vanilla** ’s little boy is skating rings around us but has on the goofiest sweater I’ve ever seen.

wrong!  
My son (nor I) can iceskate to save our lives.  
But I pictured NoClueBoy as somewhat like Greg Kinnear(he really looks like Brad Pitt)😉

I used to picture EatsCrayons as Johnny Rotten but when I saw her pic, I was soooo wrong!

I’ve met **Scout** several times.

Interesting observation. At least you got the “small” part right. 😃

**Ukulele Ike** I picture as a medium height older gentleman with gray hair and a tattered corduroy jacket carrying a small instrument case.

Dread Pirate Jimbo - I think of Wesley from The Princess Bride.

Bob Barker is the host of the long-running U.S. game show “The Price is Right.” Whenever I see your name, I hear Johnny Olson saying, “Come on DOWN!” (also from the show).

You should know that I had to go out and buy some corduroys just because of this. Thankfully they were quite reasonable at Costco. I already have some cable knit sweaters, although I’ve not been to Ireland, but will probably have a business meeting there in May or June. There’s a distillery there that’s a big customer of ours.

**1920’s Style Death Ray** is a 32 year old man, who really, really digs Sci-Fi.  
He wears glasses, has 4 computers in his apartment that is located in his mothers basement.

Having said that, I do not remember reading any of his/her posts.

**Blown & Injected** is, in my mind, being blown and injected. Please let me know if you’re a boy or a girl so I should know which section of the pornshop that is mind this should be filed in.

**1920’s Style… Ray** in my head is dressed in white spats, a zoot suit, and is carrying a gat (which shoots death rays, of course). I may be off by a decade or so there, but that’s the way it goes.

**Misstee** is missing her t-shirt in my head, which she was wearing with her white cotton panties. Too bad for her, lucky for me. 🙂 This is in more the PG or R section of my head, not in the XXX section like B&I. (Ray is filed under Gangster/Sci-Fi films).
