Subject: Your avatar and why you chose it.

Written By: MrCleveland on 10/04/07 at 6:48 pm

I chose the Beatles by an American flag because I love the Beatles and America. You can say whatever still in a certain extent and the Beatles basically did every genre under the sun.

Cats ... they just can't get enough affection, can they? Like a perpetual sponge waiting to soak up your stroking them.

Years ago, like I stop to 'tweet' at wild birds .... I'd often spend time on the way home late at night stroking whatever cat might cross my path. Gave that practice away a couple of years back when I was personally persistently bothered by a biting flea or two ... which I figured I'd picked up off of one of these cats. Anyhow, normal service is now resumed, as the building I've recently moved into has an adopted 'fat cat' .. that everyone seems to make a fuss of. He (she?) is so placid ... almost on 'mogadons' .. just seems to sleep its life away, and invite you to stroke it. Well, it's nice to be in touch with nature.  :) 8)

I think mine is pretty self-explanatory and simple. :)

You know, I used to change avatars all the time, but the one common theme was that I wanted something that expressed myself in one way or another. And I can't think of anything that says who I am better than this one. I don't intend to ever change it, and even long after this board exists, or I stop posting, etc...I'll always feel that way, probably the rest of my life. When I'm 90 years old, I have hardly any doubt that I'll feel just as strongly as I do right now.

My avatar is a Poke'mon, Marowak and can best be explained by Neil Young;

I Am A Child

I am a child, I'll last a while.
You can't conceive of the pleasure in my smile.
You hold my hand, rough up my hair,
It's lots of fun to have you there.

God gave to you, now, you give to me,
I'd like to know what you learned.
The sky is blue and so is the sea.
What is the color, when black is burned?
What is the color?

You are a man, you understand.
You pick me up and you lay me down again.
You make the rules, you say what's fair,
It's lots of fun to have you there.

God gave to you, now, you give to me,
I'd like to know what you learned.
The sky is blue and so is the sea.
What is the color, when black is burned?
What is the color?

I am a child, I'll last a while.
You can't conceive of the pleasure in my smile.

The muscle man with the face paint is 'The Ultimate Warrior' and was a WWF wrestler between 1988 - 1992. He won the intercontinental title twice, once from the Honky Tonk Man at Summerslam 1988 and the second time from 'Ravashing' Rick Rude at Summerslam 1989. He also won the WWF heavyweight title in 1990 at Wrestlemania 6 after beating Hulk Hogan in a great match.  :)

He came back for a very short stint in 1996 but the less said about that the better.

I chose him because he's a wrestler and I like wrestling and he's a bit mental . . . A bit like me I guess.  :D

i was reading the bright lights film journal about the movie and came across this

"Most of the fun in Flying Down to Rio lies apart from the plot, which has to do with mutual pursuit of glamour girl Dolores del Río4 and glamour boy Gene Raymond. Del Río plays a Brazilian beauty (not much of a stretch; she was Mexican and gorgeous), while Raymond is a bandleader/pilot whose father owns "the sunny side of Wall Street." (Fred is Gene’s accordion-playing sidekick.)"

I loved Wonder Years! Kevin and Winnie had the purest romance. That moment of the first kiss. The time Winnie broke her arm and Kevin was sitting outside her window watching her (We've Got Tonight) was playing.

and then the finale when you learn they marry other people.... ugh I cried so hard.


The First Kiss


funny thing...they pretty much tell you during that scene that they don't end up together but wishful thinking is mighty powerful tool.

It was a great show. Yes, very sad when you find out they marry other people. The first kiss was also so cute. The "We've got tonight" moment, priceless. And when Winnie tells Kevin "I found someone" (right beside the school buses). So sad.
Great show. Waiting for it to come out on DVD, WITH all the songs there ( which is why it's taking so long)

Mine is fairly obvious why I chose it, since my username is SemperYoda.  As why I chose SemperYoda.  I was once a Marine and Semper Fi is their slogan.  I was older than a lot of my friends so as a joke they called me Yoda for a nickname.  Supposedly since I was supposed to be older and wiser.  It stuck.  They engraved SemperYoda on a Kabar knife as my getting out of the Marine Corps present.

At least it means something to me and the picture probably won't change as I post my 2 posts per year.  LoL.

There is a limit on the size of avatar allwed on the site, and if the animation makes the avatar too big, it will cut the animation out and just leave the still pic. ;)
