Icon5 What is the meaning your Avitar picture?

Read a similar post on another forum and thought it was interesting.

My avatar is of my '79 10th Anniversary Pontiac Trans Am. It is the last year GM made a "big block" performance V8. Mine is one of 1700 made with a factory 4 spd.

Wanted one bad in high school but couldn't afford it. Found this one from a collector a few years back in Michigan. 40k original miles and MINT. My wife was perfectly happy when I said I was buying it instead of another Harley so it was an easy sell!

What's the story behind your's?

I like The Police.

Went to 4 shows this past year - Seattle, St. Louis, Louisville, and Columbus. Amazing to seem them - I never thought it would happen.

I love the movie Wall-E... the characters who fall in love have similar personalities to me and my husband...

I like big clocks, skinny black ties and traveling through other dimensions, dimensions not only of sight and sound, but of mind. Did I mention big clocks?

I'm nuts about all pearls, but my favorites are Tahitians. I have a strand similar to the ones pictured in my avatar.

Boa, how many OEM's have you had? We currently have two, I had one before my wife and I were married, the two we have now make them my sixth and seventh mastiffs. Wonderful, wonderful dogs!

My brother had one, and we've had two. After Evita died, we got her half-sister, who unfortunately contracted tick disease and died very young. They are the most comforting dogs I've ever had, very soulful.

Dan, that's still one of my favorite avatars.

Mine - well, I'm a stay-at-hom-mom, and it's a little satirical jab at the cliche. Plus, I'm a pretty good cook!

It's the only Irani Sheepmaster in Sweden I have imported from New Zealand. It's a great dog
and the only that I don't like is he post and Skype too much.
