Okay, okay. I believe I've said this elsewhere, but I selected The Architect from the Matrix films as an homage to two of my all-time favorite posters: exegete and Rollo Tomasi. I also picked The Architect since the views he expresses in The Matrix Reloaded remind me a great deal of "the Mormon Condition." Ray A has said of me that I seem like a "dour prosecutor," so I guess I selected the proper avatar.


Mister Scratch, you scare me. So does your avatar.

Uhh, no it isn't.

Are you on drugs?
Nope, he does not call it drugs, his doctor calls it Sandy candy.

I am a sucker for fat cats. :-)

No avatar. I never figured out how to load one.

My board name is the new name I received in the temple. My avatar is a picture of God.

I don't know why your avatar gives me the heebie jeebies. And um... I worry you're going to write up a dossier on me one day. ;P

Thanks for the explanation. I honestly thought that was Pope Benedict.

This has been my avatar on two other boards. The original board had 4 pages of avatars to choose from and I just liked this one. I find that being a sexy cartoon avatar gives me more message board leeway.

I find it humorous that I read posts in the avatar's voice if I know what it sounds like. James Bond then Ned Flanders and so forth. It's pretty silly.
Insert ironic quote from fellow board member here.

My avatar is a picture of God. Does God have a deep, James Earl Jones voice or is He more like Pee Wee Herman?
