    Sorry, I don’t know either — but if you’ll just lose the 18th century wigs, I’m sure those faux-Elizabethan puffed sleeves and Michael Jackson pants will get you a drink in West Hollywood.

    The one speaking must think he has it ruff.SusanSunshine, I was with you on everything you had to say yesterday. If you and I or Number 6 or any of certain others here were in the same room together there could be problems. Not for us of course. We’d have a blast punning away. The problems would be for everyone else.

    Their clothing looks like it’s strangling them to death. So tight!

    OMG Larry — scary thought.

    Might be like a Godzilla movie…. a frightened populace on the run.

    Actually, I wish we could have some sort of big GoComics convention.

    Not just people who think they’re funny — that often turns out to be deadly — and not in the sense I meant above.

    But all the great people I’ve met here, whether you think you’re smart or not, quiet or funny or shy or…..even as out-going as ….. well….. probably me.

    Unfortunately we range all about the globe……

    Hey — everybody wanna meet me in San Francisco or Oakland (CA, USA) for coffee?

    AW c’mon, what’s a few thousand miles?

    ^ But that is a photo of me. Well, about 8 of them carefully shot, cropped and animated.

    @Susan Sunshine“…Hey — everybody wanna meet me in San Francisco or Oakland (CA, USA) for coffee?AW c’mon, what’s a few thousand miles?”

    __

    A “few thousand miles”… piffle!!!

    I’d love to meet you for coffee… but I’d probably drink tea. Dang it that I didn’t know you sooner… before I moved to NC.

    __PNW girl, myself. I miss the “big” ocean. Really do!

    Bailey — I’m 50 miles north of San Francisco — just figured more people would know where the cities were.

    About 35 miles from the coast — and I keep thinking I’ll drive out there….. while years go by, in between. :(

    I hear NC is very pretty (I have a relative there) ….. but it’s a long walk from here.

    It would be fun to meet, though, wouldn’t it?

    And No.6 — mine is me too!

    According to rOdd.

    It was done from a photo of me…..with artistic license.A lot of it.

    My real eyes are a bit smaller, and so are my teeth — but the expression is about right, I’m told.

    And my hair is a much darker (cough cough) red…. (cough choke…)…

    Not to mention that the avatar might look a few years…. um …..months…. yeah, months younger than I do in person.

    But actually I’ve had the same thought — that we should have a photo day.

    Some people are scared to post a real pic —

    but there are a few besides Larry who already do it, and I’ve never heard of any ill results.

    Of course….. when you have my wanton sense of what passes, in my mind, anyway, for humor, you do have to watch out for being recognised on the street.

    That explains why they didn’t have much sex back in the days, by the time they got undressed they were too tired for it.
