Explain your Avatar Thread

Mine is a political statement.

 

Which I have studied before...to try n figure it out...without success...

 

Yours is one of my favorites. It was a sad day or 2 a couple of years back when you had the silly idea about changing it.

 

Exactly. Out of respect for forum protocol, I'll leave it at that.

 

Mine is......

























































Still my head on a muffin.....

 

It’s a picture of myself riding my KTM 525 supermotard at the Broadford motorcycle complex. (I love that old bike!)

Mine currently is my old predator splitter in front of one of my pallet firewood racks, perfectly covered in a little snow.

The red and white were perfect contrast with the wood.

My new splitter is grey, not quite the same effect

 

Colorized version that Backwoods Savage found...
From Walden... (Some heresy about burning green wood!)

"Every man looks at his wood-pile with a kind of affection. I love to have mine before my window, and the more chips the better to remind me of my pleasing work. I had an old axe which nobody claimed, with which by spells in winter days, on the sunny side of the house, I played-about with stumps which I had got out of my bean-field. As my driver prophesied when I was ploughing, they warmed me twice, once while I was splitting them, and again when they were on the fire, so that no fuel could give more heat.

…Hard green wood just cut, though I used but little of that, answered my purpose better than any other. I sometimes left a good fire when I went to take a walk in a winter afternoon; and when I returned three or four hours afterward, it would be still alive and glowing. My house was not empty though I was gone. It was as if I had a cheerful housekeeper behind. It was I and Fire that lived there; and commonly my housekeeper proved trustworthy."

 

Mine is Curly from the three stooges
Why? Because great minds think alike of course!

 

Not really heresy Midwinter if you remember what they were burning in! 4 yo dried wood burns really fast in a fire pit

 

My pic is one of our first baby goats we had a few years back. They were great pets. We bottle fed them so they were very tame. Unfortunately we had to sell them all (wife's car had some issues and needed repair) but they all went to good homes.

 

Mine is our new stove (IS installed in Jan '11)

 

Does Longsnowsm have a great avatar or what?

 

My current avatar is of my current bike. It really helps to confuse those that haven't been on forums with me; with the name and the bike, they assume I'm male. I like to mess with people like that

 

Have to admit, I thought the same till I got to know you better through your posts.

 

Everyone does. Heck, some of the old-timers forget every once in a while.
