My avatar is one of my favorites from the LOL Kitty collection.

It makes me laugh everytime I look at it, and I hope you giggle too

It also reminds me of what I was like when I was drunk...I made my kitties, kids, hubby, family, friends SCARED.
I love your avatar. I want to hug and kiss and love on that cat. Its adorable

Mine.... Pretty simple

Have maintained a 4 handicap on the golf course for the last few years (was a +1 handicap when I lived in Florida).

I was gonna use "DayTrader", but that name was already taken.

I'm a Leo thru and thru so I picked that as my screen name. For some reason I'm just drawn to the number '21'..........i dunno why!! My avatar is mr krabs holding money because I admit I do love money!! But for me it's a reminder that the biggest impact (thankfully) of drinking was my finances and just blowing through it like crazy.

I've had other screen names at other forums in the past like txfiddler (cause I play the fiddle), and my fav though is 'trueknight' which is my ***** email address and screen names at other joints.

Everything, racing, cruising. The only thing I haven't sailed yet are dighies and multihulls.

I am in a perfect place for dinghy sailing but unfortunately we aren't allowed on the 'lakes' here.

I loved that old avatar, it is actually a cropped picture of two sailors from Yemen.

That guy, you have to love the "I don't have a care in the world" look on his face.

I'd start a vote to get that dude banned.....he rarely has anything good to say anyway.

These are interesting to read! As for me, "Watch the Sky" is a song by Something Corporate that describes how I feel about addiction, mental illness, and coping with all of it. It says to me that I'm not going to do everything right, but every once in awhile something will stick. The whole song carries this message for me, but the line I really love is in my signature. ("You live the life you're given with the storms outside, some days all I do is watch the sky.")

The avatar just reminds me that I still have coffee as one of the loves of my life!

My username comes from....wait for it....a bar. To be specific a bar restroom. There was this piece of graffiti over the toilet that was a cute little piglet running (drawn by a rather talented local artist no less) with the caption "speedypig rules!". I have always remembered that drawing and it always makes me smile.
