What's Up With Your Avatar? :) (1 Viewer)

As stated, I change mine a lot. Currently, it's Edward G Robinson as Lancey Howard from the Cincinnati Kid.
 
Kilroy

Mine is a modified Kilroy, a WWII cartoon character my Dad used to burn or carve into his woodworking projects.
The GI's used the character in WWII as graffiti marking where they had been.

The TR King logo as designed by Johnny5. I wanted a SoCal/Dodgers feel to represent their Los Angeles locations (5) from 1931 to 2006. John came to the rescue and hit it out of the park.

My favourite chip from my first Paulson casino set.

Slightly off topic, can I change/remove the flag above my avatar?
 
Mine is now a logo for one of my favorite breweries in Ontario. I'll probably cycle through a few others, especially the Nfld beers I grew up on that I either can't get here, or are considered "imports".

Sry, there is no option for that. It is generated by your IP address. Is it incorrect for your location? They sometimes show an incorrect flag but normally comes back on the next refresh.

LOVE that avatar! Too funny.
 
I've owned bikes ever since my first 1965 Honda 305 Superhawk, and this one is my favorite ever -- a tweaked 2001 Aprilia Falco, 998 cc, 135 hp, with terrific sounding carbon fiber cans.

I had to sell it a few years ago when my knees and back couldn't take the riding position any more, but I'll always miss the performance and the sound. And the paint job. ;)

Now it's just a black-on-black Honda 919, cored exhausts, and a more upright riding position, for me.

Not much fun riding down here in FL though, especially after dark -- you never know when you're going to get drenched with sewer water by the automatic watering systems along the roadways. The same problem makes riding in a convertible problematic, and I always have the top down unless it's raining. (Hell, my last car didn't even *have* a top...and my next Super Seven clone won't either. ;) )

An album cover from my favorite college band and related new board name. Doug Clark and The Hot Nuts were said to have been the inspiration of Otis Day and the Knights. Man, when they got to the third set, it was on. See that girl dressed in green......she go down like a submarine......Nuts....Hot Nuts.....get them from the peanut man. Christain Laettner's gotta itty bitty balls......Doug Clark unfortunately died in 2002. They played at UNC frat houses (and many others) and our apartment building shindigs. I miss them. Has the poker Nuts to add to it.

Doug Clark and the Hot Nuts, also known as Doug Clark and his Hot Nuts, The Hot Nuts and, since the death of Doug Clark in 2002, Doug Clark's Hot Nuts, is a rhythm and blues, rock and novelty band that has played party and club dates for more than fifty years. Starting in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, they became famous on the college circuit in the southeastern United States in the early 1960s for their risqué song lyrics and jokes, and for allegedly performing in various states of undress. Their signature song was Hot Nuts. Other songs that they were known by included: My Ding-a-Ling, Big Jugs (based on Big Bad John), He's Got the Whole World by the Balls, Baby Let Me Bang Your Box, The Bearded Clam (is a delicacy that won't be found in the deep blue sea), Gay Caballero and Two Old Maids. It has been said that the Hot Nuts were the inspiration for the Otis Day and the Knights group in the movie Animal House. Their first album had a picture of the band on the cover, with Doug Clark "flipping the bird" to the audience. All of the Hot Nuts albums were on the "Gross" label, a subsidiary of Jubilee Records created solely for the band. Even though Jubilee published a line of "party" records with risqué material, the Jubilee name did not appear anywhere on the Gross albums. Doug Clark and the Hot Nuts influenced contemporary artists such as Too Short and Ol' Dirty Bastard.

Not incorrect according to my passport, no... British v Scottish etc etc. It's not going to stop me posting if it can't be changed, thanks for a quick reply though.
 
My current avatar is The Mint 25c chip and is the inspiration for the design of my retro cash set for CPC...Still in the design; AKA monetary retention phase.
 
I enjoy great logos in general and being a fan of PE was a bonus in my case.

Loved all of those bands. I'm a PE fan too. Do you live in the area now?

It's from my favorite ever Bloom County comic strip. I have a signed copy hanging in my poker room. And I'm a urologist. And I'm male.

It's a dragon. I'm a dragon (...year of the). Dragon's are cool!

Do I need another reason? :D

BTW, far from albino, just quite pale from getting very little sunlight working at night and all....


Leonard, I've always loved your avatar. I remember you posted the comic on Old Blue a long time ago. I don't think I knew you had a signed copy of that particular one though. That makes it even better! You really should hang that in your office though, as an ice breaker more than anything else.

It spent a number of years in the office first. Gets more traffic in the bar in my poker/TV. I couldn't find the link to the original strip but I did find THIS.

Maybe I should have gone Bill the Cat instead of Opus...

My avatar is from one of my favorite boardgames, RoboRally. Twonky is one of the robots that is constantly getting lost in the widget factory as it races from checkpoint to checkpoint. :D
 
I chose 'Ol Bill because he has always been a personal favorite of mine. Moreover he's Canadian and fittingly represents the good-hearted sense of humor Canucks are renouned for. He is also a TERRIBLE actor.

I suspect you would enjoy meeting Mrs. Poker Zombie someday. She playtested RoboRally with Richard Garfield in it's pre-production days. But you are not truly a Twonky fan until you own this movie...

OMG I remember playing Robo Ralley while pounding beers with my friends back in the 90s!
