Now that those of us who care to know about eachother know about eachother, let's show pictures!
(Headshots/mugshots, etc...)
I'll post a picture -- or a link to a picture -- in a few days. Until then: this is how I imagine some that some of us look:
DON: Perhaps bald -- in a Picard way, not a Costanza way. No mustache. Not fat at all. No glasses. Well-dressed. LESLEY: Beautiful young woman. Skinny. Mid-length hair. Espresso-addict. Wise beyond her years. Business attire. SCOTT: Tall. His sports car compensates for his small cell phone. GOOSE: A walking, talking goose. WESLEY: Male. MYSELF: Almost human.
...I'd guess more details about these, and other people, but first let's all try to either get pictures up, or links to pictures up, or let's take guesses about we all look like, and our habits, and whatnot...for fun. (I count two typoes in this message -- but since it's not a script, I don't care to edit.)
eachother - each other eachother - each other mugshots - mug shots typoes - typos
re: "DON: Perhaps bald -- in a Picard way, not a Costanza way." - nope. "No mustache." - correct "Not fat at all." - I wish. Spare Tire "No glasses." - nope. Though, the glasses are antique (got them very cheap). "Well-dressed." - maybe - khaki pants (with cuffs) and oxford shirts all the time. I work in them, I do lawn work in them, I camp in them.
Why don't we all post pictures of ourselves then? This is how I picture some of the dudes on this board then: Alan Holman: A small dark-haired Joker. Wesley: A bald, dimpled guy in his thirties. Lesley: An attractive brunette. Goose: Me! Bigfatsandwich: A greasy haired guy wearing a sandwich board.

Me? A sports car? heh...I drive a saturn, work a crappy job with no benefits and carry a very out of date cell phone...that I just got. I assure you that the phallic reference didn't go over my head, Alan, you dry Canadian Madman. I have no idea how to post a pic on here...but I will. I used to have a pic on the 209FILMS site, but we all know about that internet abortion.
And yeah, Don does look like Harry Potter! Heh, cool.
I'm tall-ish (6 foot)...but my ego makes me appear much taller...hahaha.

I'm pretty happy with everyone's true identities. I was called a short, black-haired joker, and a dry Canadian (not to be mistaken with Canada Dry Ginger Ale); anyhoo, an outdated picture of my face is at http://members.shaw.ca/fhs/AlanHolman.htm -- and if that link doesn't work, go to http://members.shaw.ca/fhs/AlanHolman.htm -- I keep forgetting the current address, but I know that one of those is correct. At that address, you'll see some of my writings, and an outdated picture of my face which was taken less than a year ago, when my face was a bit chubbier than it is currently.
After having a good laugh at the picture of you (compared to what I thought you looked like) I'll post a pic of myself, so everyone knows my real good looks. Unlike "the walking talking goose".
"We don't make movies for critics, since they don't pay to see them anyhow."
i might have scan through some pictures of myself at the weekend and see if i can find one knocking about that looks ok as in general i avoid cameras..... except for those moments when someone has left a camera on a table and you take a picture of your face in extreme close up without them knowing and then they get pictures developed to find a Blair Witch stylee picture of me
Not in a million years would I ever have expected Scott to look like that. I thought a tall, wiry Red-haired guy. You look better than I thought. Well gimme a couple of hours and I'll send y'all a pic of me. Get some real laughter.

So intimidated about what you all think I might look like, so won't post picture. Kudos to those brave enough to post. I like, guys. I like.
Alan, pretty dead on though! Not skinny (as makes me sound sickly) but slender, pretty proud of my toned arms and legs - think they're my best characteristics, but could work a bit on my mid-section: not fat by any means, but prefer flatter (as trying to attain supermodel-like characteristics so am considered blazingly hot before overseas trip next summer...maybe). Am on current quest to lose and keep off at least 15 pounds that keep rollercoastering off and on. I was so close last summer and then.....humph.
Espresso addict? Hehe, maybe if I could afford it everyday like I used to.... Right now, on hot chocolate kick.
Um, what's your definition of beautiful? And yes, I would say wise beyond my years because I've been through a lot and seen a lot.
And yeah, I love business attire. I love looking important.
C'monnnnnnnnnn Lesley....If Alan and I can stick our necks out (or faces as the case may be), you can risk it.
Beauty isn't necessarily "supermodel" looks. In fact, most of the women I, personally, find beautiful AREN'T flashy with good looks. I'm sure you're hotter than you give yourself credit for.
A few extra pounds is the price we pay for sitting on our asses writing. I'm 265 myself, and could use to lose the weight, but actually I don't care. Talent is beautiful. Looks fade.
