I am blown away when other people mention me without explicit prompting.  
[Here is a picture where you can sort-of see me.](http://home.attbi.com/~kleebner/whoisthat.jpg) Think of it as a “Where’s Waldo” game.

What stinks about that photo is that I am leaning way back over the bar so that I can get everything into the picture. It looks like I have a big belly.

Anyway, yeah, I actually do look a bit like Kyle McLahlan, except that I have blond hair and am about 10 inches taller.

**Flamsterette\_X** is…hmmm…

About 5’10 with red/brown hair.

And dimples. Can’t forget the dimples. 😉

Do me!

Cj, i guessed people see me a red-haired and milky skinned, with green eyes.  
sorry.

short (5’), my skin is roughly the same shade as corrugated cardboard boxes, wavy shoulder length black hair, almond shaped brown eyes.

if i was to look like a celebrity, it would be somewhere between penelope cruz and marsha hunt, weird as that sounds.

but shorter, with bigger boobs!

I should know better – my younger brother is supposed to be the spitting image of his Irish great-grandfather. He has black, curly hair, blue eyes, I think, and looks absolutely gorgeous!

Do you mean the heroic little Gelflings or the scary, black, decaying bird-things that sound like Grover?

Reading all of **Flammi’s** threads and knowing she is Chinese, kinda had her pictured as the daughter of [Nancy Lam](http://www.nancylam.com/frameset.htm). This is not a bad thing. Nancy Lam is so full of energy and very talkative. Just what I’d imagine **Flamsterette** to be like.

Hmm, just from your username **BrokenDoll** , petite, dark hair, dark eyes, very pale skin.

Now I remember that, but I don’t usually wear blouses, **NoClueBoy**. You’ll have to catch me out at a wedding or something, perhaps. (and no, I don’t plan to wear one to Sophia’s wedding on the 28[sup]th[/sup], either… too cold for that, really)

I hate to do this, but you’re wrong on all counts. I’m Chinese, shorter than that, and I don’t think I have any dimples. Thanks for playing, though! 😃

[sub] **Washte** , you do know that **Kal** said the same thing upon actually seeing a picture of me, don’t you? :D[/sub]

Full of energy and talkative? I can be, when I feel like it. That would aptly describe [my sister](http://www.angelfire.com/co2/stephiecruise/me.html), though… she’s coming home in a few hours! (and no, I have NO idea where she got the first picture from…)

**Flamster** I knew a kid just like that. Freaked us out one day biting into soap (I was 4, he was about 2).
