Well if you saw "Shrek 2" ...
You'd know that was said by Antonio Banderas who, according to some women, also sounds pretty OK.

I dont know.
I've always been a sucker for the blond-hair-blue-eye-boyish type. The dark and swarthy type doesnt usually do it for me.
(Still, if old Antonio happened to show up at my door, I wouldnt send him away! Something is always better than nothing!)

What a beautiful batch of kids. Yours and Christian's. Nice pic of you both as well. It's fun to see what yall look like.
Laura, how old are your kids? My daughter is 9 and in 4th grade. Followed by Mike, 15, a HS freshman, and Andrew, 18, a college freshman. (Yes, we need to update the photo :-/)
Surprise! I don't look like that anymore. My hair is short now, and is also a dark auburn. (It's too hard to grow hair out and maintain the blondness.)
Thanks for the pics! Peace, Amy

I change my hair color seasonally
Right now it is dark brown. I'm not sure what color it really is anymore, but judging from the roots there is a lot of gray in there.
My son Mitchell is 10- 5th grade. He hates everything about school except recess. Emma is 6- First grade. She reports she is the smartest person in her class and is going to marry Nicky who sits across from her.
They are polar opposites. Emma is my mini-me. It's hard to get mad at her for painting the dog blue when I see so much of myself in her. Mitchell tends to take after his Dad, which is sometimes difficult because when I see a flash of his Dad in him I get a fleeting urge to smack him upside the head (which, for the record, I would never do because I love that little boy to death!)

That's an interesting website
I think reflected images allow you to see things in your subject you wouldnt normally perceive.
And going further OT-Photograhy is my thing. I just bought that camera and was tinkering around with it when I took the picture in the mirror. It was a gift to myself after my divorce and I splurged and bought the best camera I couldnt afford with a Carl Zeiss lens. I absolutely love it. When I get around to it, I'll post some of my photos. I've even sold some to be used in marketing publications.

My firstborn is a photographer
He is pursuing his associate's degree in photography at the community college with the intent to transfer to the Big School in two years.
He also works as a photog. for a company that takes pictures of Little League games. He is using some reeeaaaaalllly nice cameras (digital SLR's). Then the pics are downloaded, set-up for the parents and then printed out right there. Neat little operation. He makes ten bucks an hour...woo hoo!
We also got him a Fuji S5100 for his birthday. Great website called Discount Foto.

And those tiny newborn nieces and nephews of mine -- at least some of them, AFAICR -- were actually a little *less* ugly than most other squalling little monsters.

I find that I am highly selective as to which babies I care to hold or become attached. There are about 3 babies with which I am thorougly enamoured. (Sam Tilly is one of them. :-) )
I do know, however, that my children's babies will be the absolute, most adorable babies since my children drew breath. Hopefully, that won't happen for another 5 years or so.

I'm an uncle many times over as well
Only counting the ones who survived (one died of SIDS), I can think of 15 nieces and nephews offhand, and I'm pretty sure that my oldest brother has more than I am positive about. (In fact possibly more than he knows about. He won that paternity case but that was before DNA testing...)
Unfortunately, due to quirks of geography and a spread out family, I only got to see one as a baby. Since I was fairly young at the time, it did not make the impression that it should have.

Bah!You're either lying, or at the very least gravely misled
You may think there's such a thing as "your" copy of Shrek 2, that you "own" -- but if you're talking about a DVD, then you don't really own it.
Why-what-how, you ask? Well, "owning" something means you're in total control of it, does it not? Like, take any book you own with you on a trip, and you can read it in Malaysia as well as Monaco; in Equador as well as Eritrea.
Try that with a DVD -- come here, for instance, and pop it in the player at my in-laws' -- and it'll refuse to play. It does that because that's the way mr Jack Valenti of the MPAA wants it, and he -- not you! -- is actually in control. So, no, you don't "own" Shrek 2; Jack Valenti does.
HTH!
