There's also The Queen. Which makes me wonder...

How would it be to be a cross between The Queen and Freddie Mercury?

Depends on the day, really...

Alot of the time I'm a cross between Toad and Piglet... but never for an entire day.

There are some, who don't know me btw, who are insisting I must be a cross between the Phantom of the Opera and Moriatry... Heck... where do you begin with people who think thoughts like that? I just smile.

Sometimes I'm a cross between John Q. Public and that guy who's name escapes my mind at the moment... but it's usually right when I 'should' be someone special...

But really... if I could be a cross between Dougie Maclean and Vivaldi... I'd be satisfied musically...

But as far as I can stretch it? Well let's see now... How about a cross between Chuck Yeager and Robert Burns?

Yep... Uh... you ha'en tae ha' a stee o Beeman's?

Omar Khyyam, Don Quixote, Cuchullain, Benny Hill and Eeyore and a Gnome of unknown origin, with maybe just a smidgin of Galileo thrown in

I always rather liked the cross that was suggested in The Fast Show -

Cross between a frenchman and a pygmy - fantastic cook but too short to reach the oven...

By the way, way up top I mentioned former President Wilson. His first name was Woodrow, not Woodward.

It looks to me as though I should have nominated someone else. That man would never have misspoken.

Nick
the Pope?
sorry thats a title and not a proper name.
When the appointed name is used it is Pope Blah Blah the 6th
but you got me with Winnie the Pooh. IF the church ever needs a strong arm Pope they should name him Nick the Pope.




John Sebastion and Art Carney ?

Thats almost like Senator Kennedy and John Kerry.


This thread being more than just funny has shown me that everyone with androgenous forum names that I assumed was male is probably female...not that there is anything wrong with that ;)

At the moment I feel like a cross between a yeti and the creature from the Black Lagoon... but it is 4.00am here in Yookland and after 5 nights sleeping on the cold hard ground, 300yds from a working generator, it's too quiet and too soft here!

Usually I'm more Hermione Granger and Garfield.

Visually, maybe Christopher Loyd and Jed Clampet.
Mentally, perhaps Jerry Falwell and Larry Flint.

There's a great difference between who ARE you a cross between and who would you LIKE to be a cross beween.

I'd LIKE to be a cross between I.K Brunel and Archimedes but if the truth be known I'm much more like a cross between a deckchair and a squirrel.

I'd like to be a cross between Pete Seeger and Richard Dyer-Bennet!

"John Sebastion and Art Carney ?"

Though I don't really see it, I've been told I look like Sebastion. I'd take that as a compliment. Carney plays the awkward, goofy one that I usually feel more like.

Generally, a cross between Aristotle and Hagar the Horrible, with a little Rumpole of the Bailey thrown in.

In appearance, maybe sort of a cross between Jean-Luc Picard and--um--Shrek.

Musically, a bit of Richard Dyer-Bennet, a dollop of Gordon Bok, and a large portion of wounded buffalo.

I guess I'm a mix of Bonnie Raitt, Greer Garson, Debbie Reynolds, Ann Blyth, Katharine Hepburn, Susan Hayward, Noreen Corcoran, and Maureen O'Hara (looks-wise), Joan Baez and Judy Collins (singing-wise), and Larry David (personality-wise -- at least according to my brother).

These, of course, are things people have told me over the years. People, of course, generally tend to be flattering when making such comparisons. (No one ever said "You look just like Leona Helmsley" or "You sound like Minnie Pearl.")   And I haven't been compared to Noreen ("Bachelor Father") Corcoran since we were both teen-agers.

But thinking of all these people I've been compared to, I can't help thinking of the "If They Mated" shtick that Conan O'Brien uses on his show. I can picture some really funny combos!

Apparently I share a birthday with the Rev. Ian Paisley and Sir John Betjeman (different year, obviously), so if there is anything in astrology I ought to be like a cross between those two - luckily the astrology hasn't worked in my case, I'm not even anything like they say an Aries should be.

Or was that a cross-eyed bear? As in "Gladly the cross-eyed bear..."?

"luckily the astrology hasn't worked in my case"

Sadly - the planets are not in the same places on the same calendar day every year...

Huh. Well, physically, I'd say I'm a cross between Baby Huey, this guinea pig, and Dylan Thomas in his "fat Elvis" years.

Philosophically, I like to think that I'm an unwholesome mixture of Leon Trotsky, Imam Shamil, Godzilla, Juraj Jánošík, Edward Said, Peter Griffin, Dian Fossey, and this dog.
