Tell my portrait

Shocked when discovered about ira's boldness I want to share how I am picturing some Fodorites :
(inspired by that other thread)

I was picturing ira as tall 6'2" athletic built,
Armani suit, wide smile, no woman
looking for perfect one still.

I always thought TninGorjus is fat 26 y/old girl
with great sense of humor.

I picture StCirg as older gentlemen former scientist

I like Christina very much, but somehow I don't have
picture of her ...

Hi Ziana,

I think you scored "0", but I don't wish to disillusion you.

Ziana,
this is something I am curious about too, I mean about the fodorites' faces. I wish there were a PICTURE BOARD somewhere here in Fodors' Forum where those who want can add their photo, so that we will be able to give a face to nicknames. Could someone hint that to the Fodor "Headmaster"? heheh

This is fun, well, I'm 30 (something) 5'2" eyes of hazel, no rhyme there, but I've never been considered "normal" about 100 lbs and consider myself to have a pretty good sense of humor....

Marilyn,
do you think she'll be after me ?
We are from the same area which makes me feel wanna move back to the old country ... do you think she will read about "good sense of humor" and may be just ... laugh ??? Anyway, let me know if I need start packing.

BTW, I think you like short skirts, and you are 30-40 short hair cut, blonde !

Ziana, all I'm getting so far is lots of big thick curly dark hair. Am I right.

My view of ThinGorJus has always been skinny legs in tight trousers. VERY tight trousers. And a very exaggerated mid-Atlantic accent darlings!

Kate !!!
It IS amazing ... I do have so much of curls wich are bleached and straightened, but you are right !

And I am always think when people pick very loud aliases - they are opposite in real life.

Like if you are Kate - you must be in harmony with yourself.

There was a similar thread to this several years ago, with lots of people giving their impressions of regular posters, and then the person telling what they actually look like. It was very interesting to me as a newcomer, but I'd love to read it now that I know some screen personas better.

Battufolina, there are some places where you can see photos of fodorites, but none organized by fodors. I posted photos of the SF GTG which will show you a few of us. I think this link will get you there http://www.worldisround.com/articles/23795/index.html

Ziana, you are almost 100% wrong about me (I do have short hair) which continues your near-perfect record so far! (Actually, when I was "30-40" I did like short skirts...... but I've never been a blonde. )

Marilyn - I have always pictured you as late thirties/early forties, shorter curly hair, and kind of petite.

Degas, on the other hand, I always picture as being MAYBE thirty, probably younger, and, despite his little comments, fairly athletic, but with a wicked sense of humor.

ira, I had always pictured you as kind of short (no offense!) and thin, with short reddish brown hair.

I always thought ThinGorjus was an Oscar Wilde/Quentin Crisp type of character! I mentioned that once and I think he was kind of flattered
It must be that sharp wit

I saw Degas in short pants with suspenders... At beginning I thought - tall, later - short.
