Good Lord.

**Ricky Bloody Martin**

Now let me see… Ricky Martin is a hot, sexy Latino with millions of young’uns of various genders screaming his name…

I’m an uptight suburban white boy who couldn’t dance to save his life, owns Johnny Cash albums, and like to sit at the pub watching the cricket. (g/f says I’ve got a nice butt though. 😃 )

Makes sense to me…

Ironic thing is, I’ve been to a Ricky Martin concert!! ::eek:: My g/f is a big fan. She dragged me along (Hey, give me a break, it was back when I was trying to impress her. These days I’d tell her what I said when she asked me to go to a Kylie Minogue concert: “Yeah, sure, I’ll drive you there. I’ll be in the pub across the road”)

Sorry. Only Albertan I could find in my overly cluttered mind. Would you prefer I used k.d. lang?

Dear GOD, I was Tommy Lee!

I guess they don’t have Jim Morrison in this thing. Yeah, that’s it. 😃

Macy Gray.

I’ve heard of her, but couldn’t tell you anything about her.

I’m not so sure that test is right, anyway. I always kinda pictured myself as a cross between Barbra Stresand and Wendy O. Williams. 😃

First Chris Isaak on this list. That’s cool. I like him and Dwight Yoakum a lot.

Funny thing, I don’t like them harvesting my e-mail, so I gave 'em “[no@no.com](mailto:no@no.com)” instead. Program came back and said they already got one.

Another Beck, here. That’s cool…I’m not as stylish or hip as him, but he seems like a pretty cool guy; and I dig his funky style.

And here I was hoping my inner rockstar would be [The Real Buddy Holly](http://www.kithfan.org/work/transcripts/one/budholly.html) (warning: strong language).

GOD, what did I do to deserve this?

> [@](#):

> _EMODE sayeth unto Derleth_:Que hombre, ay yai yai. The rock star part of you is all Ricky Martin. You’ve got moves that make the ladies hearts go a-flutter, and style that goes for miles. That suave Latin charm is just too intoxicating, and it means that wherever you go, people read superstar all over you. Behind those bright eyes simmers a sensual lover who knows just what a woman wants. You’re smooth, and we mean real smooth, but you don’t let it go to your head (well not too often). And anyway, that irrepressible charm makes it all OK. Hey, it’s not your fault that you’ve got more charisma than a tamale’s got hot. Just enjoy it. Feed your inner Ricky.

I’ve been around the world to find that only stupid people are breeding and I don’t even own a TV! _That_ was from memory.

Courtney Love. I always pictured myself as a Janis Joplin, so I guess thats pretty close. Drugs, booze, partys hard and can still pull off a designer gown and heels.

YES!!!🙂
