> [@Count\_Blucher](#): > > Nope… me neither. That magical mix of guts enough to shake my hand, confidence enough to say her name, and personality enough to hold a conversation with the likes of me? > Yeah, they don’t make those & probably never have. That’s why there’s TV, make-up, and writers. Ah! I just thought of one, from 20+ years ago. He was the type of person who just had that charisma, when you met him you felt you were meeting someone special who had “it”. One of those guys who makes you feel like you’re the only one in the room even though you didn’t have a chance with him, but he wasn’t mean about it. It didn’t hurt that he looked like a young Warren Beatty! So, yeah, that guy. ---

I was just wandering around the net and was reminded of one of the most beautiful humans ever: Myrna Loy. Ever watch “The Thin Man”? “The Best Years of Our Lives”? Great googily moogily. ---

I’ve always heard it as a “stone cold fox.” And maybe it’s just me, but I generally thought it meant a woman who was taller than usual, with sharp or angular features. A lot of guys are listing girls with round faces, soft features, and big boobs. To me a stone fox would be a statuesque beauty. ---

YMMV, as usual, but it may help to explain the other posts’ positions/preferences. ---
