Bloorigard Q. Kazoo, who is one of the characters on a cartoon show called Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends that my kids got me hooked on.

I picked it because it's so freaking goofy and funny.

It's Lil' Bush, from the Comedy Central cartoon that pokes fun at Bush and his administration.

I saw the pic on the net the other day and decided to snatch it.  I'm kinda moody when it comes to my avatar, I'll probably change it again soon.

It is a fairy. I always loved fairies ever since I was a kid. I plan on getting a fairy tattoo on my calf and as matter of fact, that might be one I am thinking about getting or the one I used to have. It was the green fairy, which as legend says, is what one would see after drinking absinthe, a Czech regional drink. I am 3rd gen Czech so it is a combo of my heritage and my love for fairies.

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government.

That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle

Mines the first Naval Jack. Used to be for the oldest active ship (USS Constitution doesn't count) My first ship had this flag. Since 9/12/02 it is flown on all naval vessels for the WOT. Always loved when we'd enter port and fly the huge 'Don't Tread on Me " flag...............

Something from as famous a movie as may ever be yet as obscure of a character as can be found in the whole series at the same time. (as obscure of a character as can be found with dialogue anywho)

Dunno really. A quickie MS paint job on a stolen pic from I don't know when. Just tickled my fancy as a fair warning about what you may find in a given RS post.



All of that goes to why I have the av I do... but I should also note I've never been able to size the Hank Rearden, "First Heat" painting to fit an avatar and look recognizable.
