B.K., thanks, not sure I should of submitted my photo
tho.. images can change perspectives... Jack and TJ are
bad influences on me !! ;)
Bridget, thanks... ohh you'd be surprised.. tho yea instruments are great for the insta-dazzle when you really
want to impress.
scqueen, yea.. well....unfortunately I somehow pack a lot of
lovely crap into my life...I'm just lucky I guess...eerr..I've always vented through poetry.. sorry to disappoint that I'm so young...
ah Stephen males reach their peak at 18 and sadly we go down hill after that .... sigh... from pleasing four women in one night to just pleasing only three... yes with age we learn things like making a woman sigh just by massaging her feet or how to make her grin by.... ah well that goes past the r rated thingies but as for peak and par well that all falls to the youth
a very old and decrepit

Steven; I think it's great that you shared your picture with us and I hope you will share more.
SCQueen; Well hop in the car and come on then. ha OK so I don't have a scanner but I will get you all a picture soon I promise.
Vish; I would be 007, an oceanographer, a Folk singer, a painter, a Broadway star, a great chef or anything where I don't have to schlep up afterwards hahah I guess this is where the wild imagination comes in huh which makes me the regular joe-bk that enjoys playing with words.

To answer Vish's question - no.
I wouldn't trade it for anything else.
Taking it a step further, I would not be where I am professionally could I not write.
OK, I'll jump on the band wagon... this is me in Rochester, NY during Christmas last year: http://www.deevaa.com/xanga/2000-12-14_winterdee.jpg
complete with my blank artist chick look.
If I could not write, I'd be... um an artist? I have no clue, I don't think my writing skills are all that really.
ohhh... trading one skill for another.... (read the question wrong)
If I trade writing for another skill, I'd just have one more skill I was just 'ok' at... *grin* I wish I was an ok singer. I can't sing to save myself.
Take care of your hearts.
Oh and I've just been told that photo was not taken last Christmas but the Christmas before.

Stephen ~ Not disappointed in the least, 'jealous' might be the word...would love to be 19 again. I'm glad you posted your pic, if anything, I am even more in awe of you now and don't think of you differently. Jack, on the other hand...we'll I won't get started on that poor old man:-)
I'm jealous too!
I'd think a little more about being 19 again, but my own son just turned 18 last Wednesday, so that hurts my old head too much!
hmmm trade? for many years i tried to destroy ( fer reasons too long to list here and with substances that make up almost as long a list) that part of me that draws, sculpts, writes... quite actively, in fact, with full knowledge of what i was attempting and why. lol not sure if i fully succeeded er not but now im too old to be rid of it so ill take my revenge by just (some time in the far future like maybe 300 years from now i hope) dying with it.

hey guys! i just wanted to say everyones poems are great(: i went out of town for a week and had no acces to a computer so i just got to read. theyre all good.
also, i was wondering if you could give me some advice since you all seem to be good at that. what do you do when everytime youre around your friend all they do is say negative comments about you and your other friends. i dont know what to say to them. im not the type of person to sit there and tell them that they are hurting my feelings, instead i sit there and take it. well if you can help, id appreciate it! thanks!!
Wow! I had no idea I would start this GREAT photo sharing thing!!! I love it!!
Deeva ~ If you ever decide to paint that demure one, let me know. I would probably buy it! (well, on a single mom's salary and budget?...hmmm....but I could SAVE UP!) My sister is a fantastic artist, but the only family members she ever painted were my son and my sister. Oh, and I love your black hair!
Kevin Urenda ~ *blushing* (do I blush?)
Jackrhyme ~ (yup, I do) Also, I loved seeing your photo. Is that you're daughter? She's a sweetie!
Stephen ~ I am also impressed and thankful for a wide range of ages here. You're a cutie! Oh, and I adored Red Moon Blue.
Gala ~ Heh! You're the wench. You already knew what I looked like. Luvs. (Hey! You guys should see Gala's eyes! Talk about seeing right through you. Peircing. Gorgeous eyes she has!
B.K. ~ thankyouverymuch.
Savannah Haze ~ You're a living doll! Way cute!
Splat ~ we'll have to start a blocked head club, huh? I gotta get my groove back! Wahhhhhhh!
Scqueen ~ I do wear combat boots! HA! But I've never been blonde. (never wanted to be either) But aren't you a babe! Great legs!! You're in pretty good shape!
Muryan ~ *wink* blinkin' me eyes at ye.
Vish ~ I'm like Deeva on this. I would wish for a beautiful singing voice. Sometimes I will sit in church and CRY because I want to be a part of the gorgeous music and voices of the congregation. If I never learn to sing very well while I'm here, then when I'm a spirit again I will sing for eternity.
therosser ~ you ARE a Blenderite. You're here and you comment and you write. (quite well too, I might add)
Anyway, I loved seeing the pics. More please! Who else is gonna come out?

Anyone got some romance-related piece that they'd like to review for next month's blender digest?
Hey Kirk, how about Nicholas Sparks' latest book, "A Bend In The Road"? Just a suggestion. He is my favorite romance author.
Hey, I was wondering if anyone ran across my latest poem?
I was trying to figure out if my writing is getting any better or worse.
Thanks,
~~Max~~
How wonderful to be able to put beautiful faces to the talented, caring people on the blender! Who knew you were all such a handsome lot?
Okay, I'm in: http://profiles.yahoo.com/chantebelle
This picture was taken last year at a singing gig, *after* a full set under hot lights, which is why I'm so nice and shiny. . .
TJ, I know what you mean about the power of music. I sing semi-professionally (meaning I sometimes get paid), and it is amazingly powerful form of expression.
So Vishal: I have to say that whatever gift I could have instead of writing, it would have to be some other form of expression that moves other people. The one that comes to mind (since I don't have it) is the gift of dance. Well, I suppose we call all dance, but when you can communicate clearly and directly through movement, it is awe-inspiring.
Hey all. I know I haven't been around here for too long, but I feel like I know you all already from reading your poems and your posts on this board.
I have a question for you all. I don't feel that Im very gifted when it comes to understanding women. I haven't ever really had a problem keeping a girlfriend once we got together. Its just that getting together part that I still just can't figure out. I have a very difficult time figureing out what women are thingking and feeling.
Take right now for instance. There is a girl I know that I would really like to have more with than our current relationship. We are good friends though, and I wouldn't want to put that friendship in jeopardy. I don't want to ask her and have everything feel strange and wierd when we are together after that. There are times that I feel like she might be interested, and other times that I think that she just wants to be friends. Ita all horribly confusing. I would ask her if I just got one good, solid sign from her. That is where my lack of ability seems to come in though. Can any of you, especially you women, offer me a little help in finding some good signs that she is actually interested?
Thanks!
Entropy
