You know, because of your user-name, I can’t help but think of Lyla areceari (sp?), the incredibly hot chick from Son of the Beach, and a few At&t commercials. She’s nice…

Uh…If you do look like her…um…How you doing?

Not far off the mark…😃  
For some reason, I see a futuristic woman for you. Sort of like Dark Angel, but lasting longer…

Channeling “Edwards” again…  
You’re a woman, correct? Name starts with an…L…I’m seeing an L. Do you have an L anywhere in your name? How about in your family, anyone have an L in their name? Or it could _sound_ like an L. Could be an A…You have an A in your name? How about an E, I, O, or U? Sometimes Y?

## Really? I did foil and saber in college – I’d love to get back in to it.

Okay, a few mental images from me:

**Meatros** - I keep picturing Eddie (Meat Loaf) from Rocky Horror.

**elfkin477** - Easy one. Lives in a tree. Works for Keebler.

**Fenris** - His namesake is a wolf, but I picture more of a hyena look. Sitting back on his haunches and laughing at you.

**Flowerchild** - Looks a little like Edie Brickell

Oh, almost forgot…

**Judith Preitht** - I see sort of a cross between Axl Rose and Richard Simmons.

Love the screen name, by the way! 🙂

\*\*

\*\*Meatros \*\* your vibe is pretty good. I drink tea and have brown hair ( died sparkling amber red) and YES someone in my family has an S in their name…as in " Shit, get over here now."

Your physic skills are eeriely vague.

\*\*Lyllanne \*\* is verrry close. I’m 5’3.5 ( 5’4 in a push up bra :D) wore glasses until January when I had lasik and I quite possibly could share a body with Duck Duck Goose, which would explain the segments of lumpiness that have appeared.

\*\*Meatros \*\* I picture you as \*\*Meatloaf \*\* and I mean that in a good way. or a play on your name \*\*Meatro Meatros Galli \*\* after Boutros Boutros Galli (however its spelled.)

\*\*Lyllianne \*\* despite the fact that I cannot spell your name twice the same way, I picture you as a Gibson Girl, complete with a ravaging head of black hair perfectly coifed and exqusite jewelry.

**Flowerchild** is a long haired hippie girl in a peasant blouse, driving a VW on her way to Woodstock, man.

Long red hair. I had a Doper tell me if I carried a sword, I’d look like an anime female warrior. 🙂

I’m straining my powers now…Errmmm…ERrrmm…

_pant_ _pant_

Eeerrrrmmmm…

Okay, seeing something…It’s a relative…ah yes…I’m hearing a 12…Does your name start with a 12? Is 12 in your name? Perhaps an 11? Did you have 12 brothers and sisters? Maybe just a “tu wa” sound?

Brown hair, blue eyes, and a long shaggy beard is what your relative has whispered in my ear…Oh and also, the keys are on the dresser underneath one of your hats.

😃 Hah!

Other than having long black hair, you aren’t far off with **Kal**. As for me… Thank you 🙂 Was born in California, and am a bit on the perky-side. However, I’m more of a mountain lass than a surfer chick.

As for you, **Shirley Ujest** , 5’6"-5’7", bobbed reddish-brown hair, small Benjamin Franklin type glasses, well-read, intelligent and not afraid to let others know about it and able to let your hair down with friends…

**NinetyWt** , petite, blonde, highly exciteable, bubbly and friendly with averyone.

**CJHoworth** … little ball o’fire, someone not to take lightly, very caring, a good person to have in your life, perhaps a Gemini, someone to have a cuppa tea with whilst playing chess and listening to jazz or Pink Floyd…

**Tir Tinuviel** , I see you as a fairly tall 5’8"ish, buff, incurable romantic type but a bit of a wild cat, feisty…

**TwistOfFate** … just under 6’, thin but well muscled, good drinking mate, protective, smart as a whip but quiet with his knowledge, can be a showoff at times, loves attention…

**Mangetout** … techie, always fiddling with a 'puter, 5’10"ish, heavyset and a _creeping_ hairline, sci-fi fan, avid bookworm.

**Libertarian** … very intelligent about myriad things, can seem a bit intimidating at first but is accepting of others once past his barriers, willing to educate others, not quick to anger, fairly tall, buzz-cut with a goatee, piercing eyes…

With such a huge community, it’s difficult to do everyone I find interesting. I hope the few I’ve done are not found to be offensive (they are not meant to be) cos I’d love to meet many of you IRL at a Dopefest one day.

There’s nothing wrong with looking like Meatloaf… Kinda adorable in my book and I like his work…

I see you as very tall, curly dark brownish hair, stubble (Don Johnson type) but well groomed, body-builder physique, class clown but protective of your inner-self, knows more than willing to let on…

Oh, and **hardygrrl** you strike me as a ‘Lita’ - the Hardy’s gal wrestler (perhaps it’s your name), bit of a Goth, long black hair but with funky colours streaked through it… bit of a bad-ass…

Anymore votes for a “young Brad Pitt”, for me?
