I KNEW you never met me! I am short, ugly, balding, at the moment kind of dumpy, have a horrible sense of humor, a vague personality, and the only person that image can intimidate is the one who regularly catches a fleeting glance of it as he quickly passes the mirror after a shower. However, occasionally someone mistakes me for an old, ugly, balding, short version of Neil Diamond. For a hard rock and heavy metal lover, that hurts. Bob C [Posted in FML issue 3949]
