i dont think of anyone on here as being sexy.  some of the girls are prettier than others, sure.  but sessy?

i mean, mark ruffalo isnt here, so i am sexy-man-free.  unless i am thinking of the self that comes through in writing.

in which case, i would definitely pick squirrel, because there is nothing sexier than a man who loves his family, is there?  no, there is  not.

i would pick mikelk, because his poems so often move me, and speak such truth.  he could make up love poems all day long.  real love poems, not passionate shepherd nonsense (which i also love, btw).

i would pick arthur james, for being a staunch advocate for me.  isnt that what we all look for in a mate?  staunch advocacy?  the pictures in his poems are also pretty rockin.

i would pick con chapman, who every time i read, i say to myself, WHY dont you read him every single day?  is there ANYTHING better than laughing??

i would pick steve b, who i begin to think is a secret OS angel.

i would pick coogansbluf, who shares my love of lebowski and therefore could always keep the black moods away.

i would pick rictresa - for loving his theresa so well, and also for giving us all such a beautiful site.  imagine os without ric's work.

i would pick bbe, whose politics i just love, tho i also love when he just plays around, which he doesnt do so much since he is busy trying to save us all.  you all, really.  i already got it.

i would pick tink, for all the obvious reasons.  i mean, how did he get a cat avatar with the exact same expression as his old one??

i would pick catamite bastard, for the beautiful heart that burst through every one of his posts. but he left us, so i cant pick him.

i would pick scanner, who runs the gamut on topics, and always always entertains and informs.  and who has no idea what a good writer he is - modesty is always attractive.

except in john b, our resident curmudgeon.  he would keep a girl on her toes, with his laughing and kvetching in equal parts.

and oh SNAP!  bill s, just for being him.

cap'n - cause he calls me smittie and i really love that. 

i would pick torman, and kindofblue and bbd and david cox and harry and i dont even know who all.  for love of family, music, art, for their vulnerability, righteous anger, and and and....

well, think about it for more than 30 seconds, and i find i am wrong.

turns out OS is overflowing with sexy men.

so then, what the hell am i doing here?

*************

trolling for sexy men indeed, bill s!

i am walking around my house thinking of those i forgot, and i am sure there are more than just these:

walter blevins, aka cheap bastid!  thanks to him, when it gets going, i will have the best damn soup kitchen going!

cymraeg, for his anniversary posts to his lovely love!

duaneart, for his awesome drawrings and kind words when needed most!

joeinaustin, for his smart person in texas posts!

stacey youdin - is there a more sincere person here?

ralph tingey - climber extraordinaire - by far the sexiest sport!

bill michton - that avatar alone makes me love him!

kerry - for giving me someone to picture when i rail against the unfairness of TPTB!

PAB - for his myriad talents and endless curiosity!

**********

holy crap!  and frank indiana, who said on scanner's post that he puts parmesan on the OUTSIDE of his grilled cheese!   hot diggity! 

***************

ok, last update:

how did i forget placebostudman, who has the words STUD MAN right in his name, and is fierce and funny and supportive, all at once??

and

chuck stetson - who knows how to be a kind friend to those who bear that handle??

oh christ - and monte canfield, our resident theologian and peacemaker!

and last but not least - andy h, who is honored for his creativity and humor! 

and really last but not least - lonnie "lonbud" lazar - resident foot fetishist, apple expert, and general morale booster!

and last last but not least - HOW did i forget michael rodgers??  he is half the reason i need to get to florida next year! he doesnt know that yet, though....
