Picture Me 2005

Ann - Look at it this way. I will easily score the lowest in this contest.

Now, doesn't it feel better already knowing that you won't finish last?

Nahhhh.... it's all in fun. You're right on target with Kaboom! (I think?)
Cat and the_cat should be easy to figure out, right? Except for color,
maybe, but otherwise both are long, slinky, walk on all fours, have
a tail that curls around, and they pounce on anything that moves.

I think Lori might look somewhat like wine before the squishing ceremony,
but I'm not really too sure. Some of the others might be more
difficult.

Feel any better yet?

Hey Roger

PURRRRRfect
You got me to the T,
have you been peeking at the pictures already.
White and black and red all over.

I like pouncing.

Here is my picture:

Lori - Yeah, that's kinda how I had you pictured.

Here's a sneak preview of me:

What happened to your rouge...I pictured you more like this...

rmelin13 · Post by **rmelin13** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 1:35 am

Look at the 2 very carefully. VERY carefully.

Just remove the hat off the second one, tell her to calm down for a minute,
tell her to face fowrard, add a freckle or two, and you'll notice that the 2
look exactly alike!

This is easy stuff, isn't it?

Uncanny - just how I pictured both of you - Roger and Lori.

You are both totally nuts

OOPS...wrong place for this.

It has been moved. Thanks popo and kaboom

Lori, have you posted this in the wrong thread?

lol I was about to say that Pauline.

the cat · Post by **the cat** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 12:33 pm

i think she is very upset. poor gal
and gave up her slippers too

lgrapes · Post by **lgrapes** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 12:35 pm

That's okay...I am sure that Ann is getting better use with them. She sits with her feet up and away from her body where the cold air is. I sit on my feet so my butt keeps them warm

Thank you, thank you.

The slippers are wonderful, so warm and cozy

- or rather, they were until I tried to dye them purple

Now I'm having a hard time getting them dry, and I just bought new socks, white ones, and they're turning purple too. But that's OK, it's just that my feet are still cold (and wet)

And Roger - thank you so much for your help too.

You described everybody word for word, just the way I've already written them

so now I still don't know what to do.

But don't worry about winning the least number of points. I'm quite sure I'll be at the bottom of the list and I'll win the booby prize - maybe Lori can send me some of that left-over purple squished stuff. I can finish dying everything else

Just to give you an update.

Kaboom will be joining us, he's very grateful to all of you for understanding his predicament.

This competition isn't about pictures, it's how we see other people in our minds eye. The photograph part is just to add to the fun.

Eeyore has let me know she also wants to join in, glad to have you Carolyn.

Thanks !!

ALL RIGHT Kaboom!

Glad you could make it after all!

That's right Roger...I am easy to pick out of a bunch..get it? A bunch... I'm big, round and purple...

I've got Lori's description already! She looks like Barney the Dinosaur!

I love you, you love me...

lgrapes · Post by **lgrapes** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 4:55 pm

NO...you all have it wrong...I have been told that I look the dragon from Shrek...Big, pink and fire breathing

So, you're only a partially ripend grape?

Poppin' Fresh · Post by **Poppin' Fresh** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 7:39 pm

I would really like to join this contest, but the only reason I haven't is because I do not want to submit a picture. I am not weird looking or anything like that - I just have very uneasy feelings about it. So if it's okay, can I join without submitting a picture too??? Even without the pictures I think it would be lots of fun. So what do you think?

Davimad · Post by **Davimad** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 7:54 pm

Hi PF,

The reason Kaboom is being allowed to join without a picture is because of his age, he's still under his parents jurisdiction.

I don't think it would be fair to the others if any adult got joining without keeping to the rules.
If it helps any, the website is private and only the contestants are given the address. We did this last year without any problems, some people had the same reservations as you have.

Nobody knows your real name or where you come from, I'm the opposite.

Everyone knows everything about me, open book.

I hope you will change your mind and join in the fun, we aren't a bad crowd really. Bit crazy but harmless.

Please don't take offence at this, I assure you that none is intended.

Thanks for showing interest, it's appreciated.

Oh sorry. When I read this I thought it would be okay:

But I guess not so I guess I can't join. Well have fun with this anyway

Davimad · Post by **Davimad** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 8:09 pm

Thanks for understanding PF.

I was trying to make the point that it wasn't about the pictures.
Sorry if that comment misled you.

At least you will get a laugh reading the daft descriptions.

popo · Post by **popo** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 8:20 pm

I've been sent 8 pics up to now, all very attractive I must say, so mine will stick out like a sore thumb.

Keep em coming ladies and gent(s).

the cat · Post by **the cat** » Sat Mar 12, 2005 9:56 pm

PF we will miss you!. I felt the same way as you. But gave in. to the fun.

Poppin' Fresh · Post by **Poppin' Fresh** » Sun Mar 13, 2005 2:06 am

Thanks the cat, but I really can't join. I have a very good reason that I cannot post here. I wish I could have joined too. Oh well.

lgrapes · Post by **lgrapes** » Sun Mar 13, 2005 2:11 am

Oh, come on poppinfresh...ooh, maybe you're famous

Oh, well...sorry that you can't join us, it is going to be loads of fun. Maybe you can join in on another competition...we'll have to come up with one that does not require our natural good looks

Maybe you can create one involving the kitchen...hmmm...how about a recipe competition? Now that could be fun with all of the self-proclaimed chefs in here...
