I'll distract the alien hordes
And as I stare death in the face
I know my sins will take me to hell...

Alas, Col. Sanders is no more...

UPDATE: Had the surgery on Monday...can't go back to work for at LEAST 2 weeks

Colonel Sanders?!? Lol! Hilarious, but not my image of Eb at all. In my mind, he has that leathery skin outdoorsy older men have, an awesome voice, and kind of ignored hair. But most importantly he's got a face that could stare down Sauron and make him blink.

So this. This is exactly how I picture Eb.

I think you picture Eb as this guy then.  ;)

Okay, maybe not that much. I guess I never pictured Eb so slasher movie-esque.  ;)

...I brought her up. :p

Actually, Jim beat you to it. :D

Jim gave Ardian pictures of Erica Cerra (Eureka) as reference for the Dresden comic.




Sean Blakemore as Sanya
Katee Sackhoff as Charity
Christina Hendricks as Lea

Lindsay Lohan as Maeve (she wouldn't really have to act much)

Katee definitely has a place in my mental casting for the Dresden Files, but I see her as Murphy.  She's not old or tall enough to be Charity.



And Christina Hendricks... GUH.  Lea just got about fifteen hundred quadrillion times more attractive in my head.  Thank you!


As for Lindsay Lohan, even thought it was meant in jest, I totally could've seen it during her Mean Girls days.  She certainly has proved herself capable of bringing the crazy lately, but now she looks stringy and skeletal and eugh.

I looked back at the quote. i misread the original statement. xD I meant to say that I brought up Sarah Shahi, not Erica Cerra.

Oooh. those pics almost sold me for Erica Cerra. I still have my mental image of her from Eureka, and her char. in Eureka just doesn't scream Susan for me.

I agree with you on both counts. I watched a few episodes of Eureka and, although I liked her character, she seemed a bit too tough-guy tomboy type for the feminine Susan. However, those pics do look rather like the Susan I always picture. (She kind of reminds me of Emmanuelle Vaugier in those pictures...what would you guys think of her as Susan?) I think I'm still a Sarah Shahi fan, though.

And as for Katee Sackhoff, I'm not sure. She looks too worn out in the Battlestar Galactica pictures and too glammy in alot of the other pictures. And in my image she has more rounded features (kind of like - but not - Julia Stiles.)  ;)

Huh. For some reason, 'Cellie, the first pic you posted of Katee came up with the red X for me. Let me try, because these people deserve to see Murphy:



*edit* Weird. Now it's working in both posts. I don't care. I'm going to leave it, because that makes double the awesome.

Probably because I was being a bandwidth-stealing linkweasel.  Uploaded it to my own web space and swapped out the links.  They should work now.

Well, thank you for that. And I note that you did not suppress the second posting of the picture. :D Twice the awesome at the same price - FREE!
