Imagine that.

Have you ever seen a person's screen name and wondered what they look like? Do you form a picture based on that name alone of what that person looks like? For this contest, I want you to look at someone's screen name and give me what you think they look like, what kind of place you imagine them to live in, and what kind of job/hobbies you think they have. Personify them from their screen name alone.

RULES:

You may only use their screen name on storywrite.
You can't ask them what they look like.
You can't ask them anything or look on their page for pictures.
You can only use screen name's on storywrite.
You may not use your friend.
If need be, look at the online now list and pick out a random name.

It can be as long or as short as you want.

    Think I should enter sometime, but I'd have to decide who to do.
