I knew the Muybridge trivia answer ... I was crazy about horses when I was younger and read everything. Most books have information about the motion study pictures.

I use the same avatar on most boards I go to that use them.

What about your signature: "wolf eht htiw og" ...? I would make that part of my MO if I were you.

I got it, but only because my son doesn't miss an episode!

That's a bit of hommage to LJ, actually. I can't take credit for it.I only post as wolf on a couple boards.

My .sig has been pretty much stable for several years.

I know, it's LJ's work, but it was freely given. Wherever I posted as "wolf" I would use the shit out of that.

My plan to play the genuines against the ironics is finally coming to fruition!

Here's the one I usually use, big deal:

Same can be said of our user names. It's just silly fun.

Undertoad--I think your Avatar avatar is pretty clever!

And - not only do I use the Avatar brand bass speaker cabinet as my personal avatar, I also use it as my personal speaker cabinet. I have two of them, and they are great.

No imagination? The avatar I posted is a black bear hibernating in a cave. The black bear symbolizes me, in a state of slumber, waiting for the spring which is my life to awaken as I too, awaken to my true self and emerge...strong, rested, and sure. The cave is the dark space which I had slowly retreated to over the past couple of years, a shelter from the madness and sadness, a roof from the rain of despair and loneliness...yet positioned next to a beautiful forest of life and goodness.

No imagination...puh!
