I have been avatarless since the loss of our dear Cavfancier. I've had a few avatars since joining in 2002, but now I think it's time to find a photo that is me. I would appreciate it if those of you that have known me for a while would post some pictures that you think look like your image of me. I will pick one from your suggestions.

So post those pics, folks.

Isn't that hamburger eating, bowler wearing friend of Popeye's named Swimpy?

I mean, shouldn't you really be Swimpy if you're going to be Swimpy?

dj, that's wonderful! The only result I ever got for Swimpy was some cartoon shrimp named Swimpy. Although I am short...um, make that vertically challenged, I don't relate to crustaceans as a personal image.

And yes, Popeye's pal was Wimpy. "I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today."

You know you'll always be a red, hot chile pepper to me, Swimpmeister.

A red hot, chile pepper with a hot new kitchen.

Not something I'd recommend as your avatar - but isn't this a great Halloween costume!

My bad. It was a scooter, not a bike, but go with it.

I don't know where I put that one, rog. I'll go searching. That picture was from a birthday card my sister sent me on my 50th. I kinda liked that one, too.
