When you’re talking on the phone with someone you’ve never met – do wonder what they look like? Or even other bloggers who don’t have their pictures up on their site. Do you have an instant image of what you’d think they look like? I do it all the time. It consumes me. Yes..I know I need a life. I spend half of my time trying to find out if they have photos of themselves in their “Read about me” or their “100 things about me” sidebar. It’s the first thing I do when I go to someone’s webpage. I’m such a visual person that it drives me crazy not to put a face with the person I’ve become aquanted with.
I get a mental image of that person. How he/she is on a normal everyday basis. I find often that I’m wrong.
I have a few mental images of my fellow bloggers – those of you who don’t have their pictures up. Tell me if I’m wrong.
Simon – brown hair, brown eyes
Robert – brown hair, brown eyes…
Ted - brown hair, brown eyes
Blogdaddy (Jim) - brown hair, brown eyes
Clancy - brown hair, brown eyes
Pixy - brown hair, brown eyes
Kaetchen - brown hair, brown eyes
Ilyka - brown hair, brown eyes
I’m sure I’m way off. If I am then prove it! But, I understand that most of would like to remain anonymous. That’s fine. Drive me crazy!
Or is this all a blogger faux pas and I’ll be banned from the blogging world.

To be fair here's a picture of me.
Do all bloggers have brown hair and brown eyes?
In my case you're half right... but which half?

I have my pic up (and that's really me, I swear!) but I can say this: I've met Simon. And you got him right :) (he's a cutie, too!)

Posted by: james old guy at July 26, 2004 10:59 AMNo I don't think everyone has brown hair and brown eyes. It was my lame attempt to have everyone tell me what they look like. Oh well...no ones falling for it.
Damn.
Thanks for the compliment guys.

Posted by: Jim at July 26, 2004 12:45 PMI'm blond and blue baby! (really)
I'll prove it one day...
Posted by: Clancy at July 27, 2004 08:59 AMYou're right about me: brown and brown. I'm sorta seeing a pattern here.
I do have a photo...and I don't want to get into a contest Jim can't win. ;-)
Posted by: Simon at July 27, 2004 09:04 PMWow :) You are picturesque:)
As for me- I have brown hair and hazel eyes, and weigh more than I care to admit.
And everyone is right you know - you are a doll!
