Ok. so I'm new around here. I have spent some time reading several bloggers material and being the sort I am I have decided to do a little exercise.
I hope what I'm about to do will not offend anyone. I am going to try to guess a few things about some of those I have read. In all likelihood I will be way off base with most of my guesses, but I may be on the money in a few instances. In either case there is no need to confirm or deny any of my accusations or insinuations about your identity, occupation or geographical location. That is of course unless you want to.
I'll start out with Zayda, the first person to comment on one of my posts.
Zayda: Aka; super z, zee or Z. Professor in the English Department at a university in Michigan, more to the point she teaches writing. (If I were to render a more specific guess as to where she teaches I might say Michigan State) She has some connection to Virginia Tech (she either attended or taught there early in her career), but she doesn't hold a degree from VT. She is a doting mother of one, a son precocious by nature. She is what some refer to as a foodie. I would place her in her mid to late thirties. I picture her with dark hair, shoulder length at most with a low maintenance style. Some might consider her manner of dress a tad frumpy, others would consider it tastelully professional. Who am I to judge?
moonriver: He is a poet and a romantic, even a tad eccentric. I cannot place him in an occupation but he is more free than most to move about. I would guess he is self-employed. I place him somewhere in eastern asia but I have the distinct feeling that he is european by origin, perhaps Austrian. He is married and has at least two children whom he entertains with fanciful tales and tall stories of long ago. At least one of his children is an adult, perhaps married. He is middled aged, perhaps in his early fifties. His love of music tells me he has a family history in that field, as it seems music is an essential part of his personna.
silverwhisper: Ala; Ed and too many others to mention. I have not read a lot of his recent material since it consists mostly of polls and such. His general location is relatively easy as he has mentioned that he lives in New Jersey, likely north jersey as he until recently commuted to the 'City' While not a total computer nerd his carreer path has kept him close to information technology. He is married with no children, this he has made quite clear. He has a background in theology, either his father or an uncle was in the clergy. His father in-law is a man of the cloth. He likes to travel, but in short spurts. He too is a foodie and has admitted as much. He is in his mid to late thirties with a receding hairline, likely displays a marked widow's peak. His most strongly held beliefs and viewpoints are not sacred. He is willing, perhaps eager to be challanged on any of them. He is strongly opinionated however and is always more than willing to offer up his take on any given subject. Even when he is wrong. He likes to stir the pot on occasion, but he will generally let others get things rolling and join the fray at his leisure. He seems to have an affinity for trout!
evil twin: He is a twenty something yuppie nerd, recently married. Being a sci-fi freak, his love for Star Trek and Star Wars is obvious. His occupation is unclear except that he is involved in some way with the entertainment industry. (Who in LA isn't?) He is generally soft spoken and gentle but has been known on occasion to have sudden outbursts of hysteria. He seems skeptical of very little and is almost willing to believe anything told with a straight face. Having been born and raised in the area he is a true Los Angelean, unlike most people the rest of us like to connect with the city. He can't imagine living anywhere else at this point in his life. He is not the adventurous type. He tends to tell his stories with such flair that some may think they are made up, but trust me they are largely true. No one but a true nerd could understand that these things can and do happen in real life.
These are the four people I have read the most so far. There are others of course and I may add some of them later on in the comment section should this post garner any attention at all. Some of these have likely never heard of me since I may not have ever left any comments on their blogs.
