Reyn, yours looks like you're selling coffee in '50s TV.

That's a possibility, but I found it HERE.

Hi everyone.

Yo, Bear...who said I'm out of rehab???

Could be I've just managed to git aholt of an office key from one of the nurses...using the usual methods.

Dys...if you don't shape up...I'm gonna tell everyone that you look jest like that avatar of yours...and don't resemble Richard Gere in the slightest.

Frank--

Good to see you. Perhaps now the unseemly speculation will cease?

I used to be a Rack o'Bones in tennis shoes with a cork-loaded Uzi.

Then my son offered to help me adapt the Fool from the Waite-Rider Tarot deck.

The Fool symbolizes the beginning, the end and that which cannot be scheduled. The Fool embodies both folly and wisdom, madness and sanity, carelessness and insight.

I adore symbols.

I adore symbols too, Noddy...especially when they crash them at the end of the 1812 Overture. Boy...we do have a lot in common.

I think Jes said something about a border collie. To someone who knows dogs, that remark would be a bit confusing!

Well, at the time, I was a border collie. Now I'm a sleepy Bahstin terrier. I'm sleepy and I'm in Bahstin. So it works.

Oh, and I'm married to a green hot pad.

I'm glad you cleared that up, jespah. For the past several months, I thought your avatar was some form of weird turtle.
Now...if one hadn't a clue it was a sleeping dog, the what I now realise is a blanket, looks like a turtle shell.

Maybe it's my medication.

What?

Who?

I'm hearing them again.........

The only meaning you can attach to mine is I don't have enough imagination to find a new one. I have been put off occassionally by unpleasant ones, but that doesn't usually happen here. There is another forum where members seem to compete finding the most offensive ones possible.

I'm back to the one I started with.

I'm occasionally lured away by another siren, but I keep coming back to the bedecked puppy.

And I am glad of it, Beth. Your avatar, and Roger's rat, are my all time absolute favorites!

TMI! TMI!!!!

Of course, I always figured that, behind the restrained exterior, that Region was hot......

That's a puppy, ehBeth???

I was just SURE it was a deer. Embarrassed

(Boomer, I wish I'd lived here in Tulsa in the Mazeppa days. I got here just a little too late for it, but I've seen lots of clips. I think there's a DVD out now...probably available online somewhere. Will look and "pm" you if I can find it. Talk about a blast from the past...)

I have been referred to <out of my hearing of course> as the deerhuahua, Eva.

I still hold that it looks more like me than anything else - the hat, the flowers, the lovely periwinkle accessories Very Happy

The deerhuahua....HA!

It's not a deer, it's a dog...
It's not hyacinths, it's periwinkles...

I am NEVER going to get this straight. Wink

<ahem>

about the periwinkle - that's the colour the flowers come up on my work monitor, not the varietal - I think they're hyacinths as well

There's a little dog in our neighbourhood, Buddy the PomChi. Part pomeranian, part chihuahua. Buddy looks remarkable like my avatar - especially the ears.

I change my avatars every 6-18 months. They all have three things in common: they all think clearly and systematically; they all write concisely and provocatively about politically divisive topics; and they all have the guts to stick their heads out. All these are characteristics I value in a writer, and I hope to emulate some of them sometimes.

I could imagine that the sequence of my avatars seems confusing to those who view politics through a partisan lense. It is hard to reconcile Milton Friedman, Paul Krugman, and Antonin Scalia from that viewpoint. But although I have pretty strong views about politics, I really don't care about them when I decide whether someone has something to say or not. My next Avatar could be as conservative as Robert Bork, as anarchist as David Friedman, or as socialist as George Bernard Shaw.
