Gee, that’s the second time that’s been mentioned. While I certainly am the embodiment of all that is good and wholesome and sparkley[sub] \<severe look at those who have met me\>[/sub] I’m afraid the only thing I have in common with Glenda would be tits, and even then, mine are more impressive than hers (according to my husband) 😃 My voice is lower, my hair is darker, and you’re more likely to find me in jeans and a t-shirt than a poofy, bespangled gown. And I usually travel in a van rather than a big bubble. But I shall endeavor to maintain my sweet, lovable, squeeky-clean image in order not to crush any impressions or expectations.

Actually, mate, the face scar isn’t really noticeable at all - certainly not at first sight. Dark hair with spits and spots of grey, brown eyes (quite Welsh looking), short to medium height and thin - can’t argue with that. And actually there is an Alanis Morrisette resemblance, so whoever pointed that out was near the mark.

I know that’s a really late reply to something in this thread, but I hadn’t looked at it until now.

Anyway. Does anyone who hasn’t seen a pic of me want to imagine what I look like?

Ahem.

You? You look like a stud. A total stud; a stud so studly that, should “stud” be spelled with more letters, you’d deserve every single one of dem consonants and vowels (unless you’re spelling it in Welsh; in which case you don’t get any vowels because they use none in that language ;)).

In Deutsch, a stud is a Bolzen, which sounds like “bold”, which is what you are: bold. Or, **bold**. Never mind that a Bolzen is probably something like a wall stud–AltaVista’s Babel Fish translator doesn’t see the difference, so why should you? All it sees is “SkipMagic ist ein Bolzen”.

And I agree.

I wish this post could go on forever in honor of your studliness, but I feel the poor hamsters would eventually keel over, dead, due to the awesome responsibility of keeping up a thread touting your… well, _studiddity_.

You stud. 😛

It’s gotta be the name… Big hurkin, bald, jolly Russian, with belly laugh that shakes the rafters. But, because you live in Tejas… Add a huge black Stetson and a few longhorns…

Well, yes.  
I just pictured you almost exactly like you look.  
You look fine, don’t worry!

I picture **Monty** as somewhat Kurt Russellesque.

😃 😃 Oh my word, you nailed me! Are you sure we haven’t met?

If anyone wants to see a picture, here’s the only “presentable” one I know of online.

1. Go to [http://www.txs.circ5.dcn/news/awardceremony/fullimage.htm](http://www.txs.circ5.dcn/news/awardceremony/fullimage.htm)

2. Go to page 3

3. Click on the third picture down on the third row, awardpic69.JPG

The four people left to right are my co-law clerk, the judges secretary, my judge, and me. Not a bad picture, I guess, but I look a little too clean cut, even for a work photo. I’ll try to post a link to something a little more “representative” later. 😉

That’s the one, the very same! (Don’t remember what he’s called though)

Now add a dash of Pacino (a la _Devil’s Advocate_) and my 'lil creation is complete! Voila!

Thats hard to say, not knowing if your a guy or gal.

I’ll say 20;s tall, sandy blonde hair, thin.

I’ve always pictured **Yosemitebabe** as some sort of sexy park ranger. You know with the hat, tight blouse, short shorts and a good piece of rope at her side. (for climbing you perv)

So I was close eh? Hhhmmm… must be near the full moon…

That’s strange. Maybe it only works on internal computers or something. Did it work for anyone else?

Anyway, I’ll email it to you, **Washte**.

Hmmm, maybe I _should_ think of a better name. I picked this one out of a total lack of inspiration.

**vanilla** , you were close, but add about fifteen years, some weight and brown (and gray) hair dye to the trimmed beard and the hair that’s left.

Strangely enough, I was a cheerleader for a short time. A very short time.
