Re: Oh, that was a *first* name...
Ooh, testy. But that backhair stubble IS itchy the first few days...I got Nan's e-mail initially off a careless posting I can't find again without wading thru profiles of lotsa ladies apparently married to cats. Easier to figure out the anagram (which I did, thank youse).Besides stomach flu, we amused ourselves at our house this weekend with www.amihotornot.com Fun site, altho the pulchritude ratings are often totally bogus. The sobering thing I found is that my beautiful daughter, out of pity or whatever, rates even scrofulous winos' pictures no worse than a 6.

"Ooh, testy.

Easier to figure out the anagram (which I did, thank youse)."@@@@ And here I was thinking you'd initially gotten my addy off the minpin rescue site, with is a way cooler site than Curse of the Cat People/Fangirl World. :)"Besides stomach flu, we amused ourselves at our house this weekend with www.amihotornot.com Fun site, altho the pulchritude ratings are often totally bogus.

But I seriously doubt than any of those guys would pass the "Are You the Alpha Male?" test on the site that P.L. found. In fact, quite a few of them looked like they'd need a pointy stick to get any respect, so I must say I wasn't overly impressed with 'em. :)-- Nanaea

Monkey Hot or NotYou have no idea how waxing your back can be taxing on your nerves.
But since you apparently are a fan of the hairy look, please check out http://www.modernhumorist.com/mh/0011/monkey/ and have Rural Utah to rate me :)

Nice parody site! And it's cool how you can specify categories of pictures, like "Monkeys and apes", "Monkeys only", and "Guys named Gus".Are you really an eekonomist? My undergrad degree's in the same discipline, but there weren't many jobs for economists in Aquarian America and none of us sure as hell wanted to be bankers. Grad school and more years of play seemed like the only palatable alternative.

Etymology of Gus?Any ideas of who the awkward name Gus was coined? As far as I know, several ill-advised Greek immigrants in the USA have changed their wonderful name Constantine to the more suitable-to-the-American-palate Gus.Yep, I really am an eekonomist. Did my graduate studies in the US of A back in the 80s. Unable to find a bonafide job as an eekonomist back home, I too had to sell out.
