SquawkRadio Comments

The Ralph Lauren guy is absolutely gorgeous but he looks too young for me to take him seriously.  (But he’d definitely be welcome to come rake my yard without a shirt on this fall!  )

And I noticed you referred to the “Power That Be” instead of the “Powers That Be”.  Would that be your editor, the art department or God who decided to change your cover???

I bet you guys don’t know this but Teresa Medeiros never makes a typo.  That’s why she’s so mean to the rest of us.

Get this: Over on Running With Quills today, she said that we all have fat bottoms!

Maybe we should vote her off the island.

Said Eloisha

I saw the bottom comment . . . couldn’t believe you guys would take that sitting down

Oh!! For me it´s almost impossible to “see” somebody! Terrible imagination, I can’t picture anything in my mind. So I don’t really know how Mayne looks, I just fell in love with his personality! I always fall in love with character’s personalities…

Hey, since everybody knows I have the biggest bootie in Squawk (and perhaps everywhere else aside from Lil Kim’s jail cell), I’m allowed to mock.

And I do too make the occasionally tipo.

I also don’t usually have any idea of what a character looks like, or I don’t match them with actors or other people, if I have some sort of inkling in my head, but I’ll post pics anyway :D .

Green shirt Simon

At gun point

I see a taller version of Johnny Depp as Mayne, if Mayne had brown eyes instead of blue.  But the cheekbones, the way Depp can get a tumble of black curls on his forehead sometimes...and the way he always looks better in historical dress than modern…

Johnny Depp is Mayne.

Tall, 6’3”,
perfectly and wonderfully hugable,
dark or blue eyes, depending on the day,
dark hair,
strong hands
sense of humor

So, that’s Mayne for me.  Of course, that’s also every other Romance hero too.  Obviously I need to get out more.

Firefly, “green simon” looks like a perfect Mayne to me. OOh, I do lurv that Mayne

Eloisa, that is one hot cover, but I also noticed the “no breasts” thing. Even a slight hint of a curve there, perhaps?

for me, it’s got to be the actor Olivier Martinez. The age and coloring are right, there’s that certain French flair, and the man is just gorgeous.

There are a lot of photos of him around, but here’s a link to one that really seems Mayne-ish:

(my verification word is “bed53”
Could this mean something?
Dare I hope?)

Waah!  I found a really great picture of Christian Bale, but I can’t figure out how to link it here!

Okay, I’m going to try to give a link here.  On this site
http://www.christianbale.net/home.htm
under PICTURES, then MAGAZINES, then STUFF MAGAZINE is the perfect picture of Christian Bale as Mayne.

Oh do we really have to chose just one Mayne?  Can’t we have a smorgasboard? 

Here’s my idea of Mayne… if JFK, JR. were still alive today, he would be Mayne.  No questions asked.

I finally figured out why Christian Bale looked so familiar… He was Laurie in Little Women.  I had no idea.

Also finally watched Finding Neverland, which was wonderful.  No idea why I put it off for so long.

For another face, what about Ioan Gruffudd or maybe Alexis Denisof

Now I really have to get to class…

Brennan Elliot is perfect. Saw him on Cold Case last night and he made my mouth water. If the links don’t work, go to imdb.com and look him up.

http://www.imdb.com/gallery/hh/0254392/iid_1119474.jpg.html?path=pgallery&path_key=Elliott,%20Brennan&seq=6

It’s Purefoy all the way for me...He’s perfect, the right age, and damn hot...not french but that’s fine with me!

And just for fun...from Rome...sorry couldn’t fine the full frontal!

Sigh...My dream man…

Okay I have to agree about Christian Bale being Mayne but I think this is the perfect pic

http://handson.provocateuse.com/images/photos/christian_bale_08.jpg

Teresa SAID “we all have fat bottoms!” REALLY??? My question IS She talking about just The Squawkers rears or Are The Squawkees included in that WE? 

And to The Powers That Be…If I recall, yes I’m sure that I’m right, curvaceous means well endowed and deliciously spacious. Not Tall and Small. So fix that cover and Get that Scrawny Woman Out of my sight. 

See I can say stuff like this ‘cuz I am The Cu$tomer and a Reader… And I don’t have to worry about kissing those things that Ms Medeiros was talking about.

Brennan Elliott is gorgeous! 

I liked this photo of him:

Can’t forget the lovely Ian Somerhalder!

MY HUSBAND IS THE COMPUTER GEEK IN THE FAMILY SO I HOPE THIS WORK.
http://mielofon.com/actor/eddie_cibrian/12.shtml Here is a shirtless pictore of Eddie Cibrian.  He now star in Vanish.  Thank you Eloisa for Mayne.  It’s been such a long wait but i’m sure it’ll be worth it.

Eloisa,
What a delicious topic!
Here are my potential Maynes:

How about Hugh Jackman as Mayne?

Hold on.... Obviously I missed soemthing…

Mayne is actually endign up with Josie???????

Aaaagggh!!!!!!!  

sorry about the typos.
It is still early in California (just past 10.00)

I can’t get any IMBD photos to load, guys!  I’ll keep going with the others, but I have to resize, so I may miss a few (I’m supposed to be working today and the kids are home from school--eeek!)
Eloisa

This is really hard. No guy I’ve seen has lived up to Mayne, but here’s my faves.

From Sherrilyn Kenyon’s site:

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v465/Peeeete/BDB%20Banner/kerrigan.jpg

Ioan G. (not going to even try to spell his name) as the more windswept Mayne:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v465/Peeeete/BDB%20Banner/ioan.jpg

Hugh Dancy (sp?) as Mayne:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v465/Peeeete/BDB%20Banner/Hugh.jpg

Not really a Christian Bale as Mayne-girl, but for fans of him as Mayne I’ve got a slightly windblown Batmayne on hand:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v465/Peeeete/BDB%20Banner/batmayne.jpg

I can’t believe no one has mentioned Patrick Dempsey of Grey’s Anatomy.

He could be the poster boy for rakish, dark-haired gentlemen. And he certainly looks like he could make a girl go “ooh la la!”

I sent an email to Eloisa.....but I’ll post the link here also.  Karl Urban *sigh*

My first choice for Mayne is the one in my head. No one will ever match that. For second choice, I’ll take someone who is known just as an image, not a personality.

So many gorgeous men!!  Here’s one more--Clive Owen.  He’s going to be Sir Walter Raleigh in ELIZABETH, THE GOLDEN AGE with Cate Blanchett.

I am sooo enjoying all of these pics.

I submit the gorgeous David Boreanaz:

Sarah, I can’t get the unknown handsome man to load, alas!

And much though I’d love to load the IMG photos, this blogger won’t take them for copyright reasons… sigh.

Eloisa

And I did NOT say we all had fat bottoms.  I said we were a bunch of big butted chickens over here at Squawk Radio.  That’s totally different!

*LOL* Teresa, don’t you know better than to say anyone is big butted, even in cartoon format?

And the pirate Depp is not what I meant for Mayne...*LOL* But his Sleepy Hollow one.  Totally my fault for not sending poor Eloisa a picture of what I meant.

Lots of hotties listed above.

Send me His Sleepy Hollow pic, Miss Hellion, and I’ll pop it up there!

Not that there’s anything wrong with Johnny the Pirate.

Eloisa

Oh, it updated (I changed my Avatar for the Sleepy Hollow pic)...hit the refresh...by the way, have I mentioned how great the new SquawkRadio site is?

He almost looks a bit like an undertaker, but his hair...and those cheekbones!

No, nothing wrong with Johnny the pirate, but whenever I say Johnny, people go, “Really?  HIM?  God, why...” *LOL*

I don’t know if he has already been mentioned, but what about Raoul Bova?

http://www.perfectpeople.net/picpage.php3/cpid=86300

The cover model Stephan Andreas Schwarze also makes an excellent Mayne. He’s one of the few cover models I actually find attractive!

http://stefanas.com/index.shtml

Hmmm… this is diificult. But since I’ve been watching Code Name: Eternity way too much, my suggestion is Cameron Bancroft.
http://fp.culttv.plus.com/ukculttv/exclusive/codenameeternity/codenameeternity.htm

Very nice indeed, Sara! 

And I forgot to tell you that I never give you my rose on the FanLit thing because I’m trying to help you because my Top Picks never win but then my top pick for this week won and ruined that theory so...I’ll just shut up now.

Sara Lindsey...that man is very edible...my god why can’t I meet these guys in real life? He’s too hot to be real!

Absolutely delicious, ladies! Keep ‘em coming! 

Let me just say this about our delicious Mayne.  He has dark curls and large hands.  He is Puresex to some and JFK, Jr. to others!  I’m leaning towards James Purefoy only because of the visual aides provided by Tiff!  She’s so thoughtful of others!

Oh, and ladies, lest we forget “Fat bottom girls make the rockin’ world go ‘round!”

Well, this thread is just downright delicious

I already have Raoul Bova as my visual for Matt Farrell in PARADISE.

Brennan Elliot.....where has he been hiding??? WOW

Green shirt Simon still fits my visual for Mayne. Depp is a close second, a bit too sinister though (love him for it , nevertheless)

How do you all find these guys? I must be living in a hole! Or I just don’t watch enough TV, lol. Loving the choices

Yeah, sure, Terri! 
Your pick from Round 1 won, too.
It’s okay - maybe if I make the top 10 all six rounds Carrie will give me a special “A for effort” prize!
If you want a good laugh, though, I’ll send you my STD parody… You, too, Eloisa…

James Marsters has gone dark…

http://www.flickr.com/photos/ravenu/248639374/in/set-72157594286894684/

Curly hair James (he’s still blond here, but look at those cheekbones)

Oh too funny, Sara!  I’d love to read it

Eloisa, I had a picture in my head of Mayne in my head, but it has just been usurped by that picture you posted. :fans herself: Damn, he is hot!
