I like everything zombie related so when I saw on the news that somebody had hacked some road construction signs to warn of zombies I just had to have it.  I did not have an avatar prior to this one.

Makes me laugh every time.

Mine is a picture of yours truly, looking through the driver side mirror of my cougar

Its funny I was thinking of starting a similar thread, except that it would be to explain some of the usernames around here lol... you know like mine is my initials sarj and then three x's just to take up space for places that require 6 characters or whatever and I just have stuck with it for a looooong time

I remember when Tom had the guy from Bum Fights!

Mines the back wheel from my Mustang.  Snapped a shot of it one night for kicks and realized it actually came out quite nice upon review..... Shrunk it down and put it in my upper left hand corner.

One can google mine..it's called a triquetra.

Can mean or stand for several things, but to me, not so much as "mainstream", as what I'd call....."earthy".

Mine is a picture of my bird on the day i finally won first place at my towns local car show. Proud of it cuz usually whoever donates most wins instead of the car being judged, but not that year!!!!!. If you squint your eyes really hard, you can see i was a smartass and took a pic with the trophy on the air cleaner ; )

Your avatar takes the award for most clever. Not just you, but your reflection in the rear view mirror. I started using "Chrome" as a username many years ago. I don't remember why I chose it, but I use it on the internet always. I like to keep my name concealed for privacy and safety. I don't care on this site. You are all becoming my internet friends. If any of you would like to you can call me by my real name. I'm Derik.

Someone found an 80-82 cougar on ebay that was the "Steel Cat" edition, I can't find the Leads section thread, must have been lost. It had that emblem on the vinyl half-top. I took that picture and horribly quick-and-dirty photoshopped it to say "Steely Cat" like Steely Dan :giggle:

Mine is a pic of a winking cougar....a photographer was out taking pics of this cat all week and it was just sitting there and winked while pics were being taken of it. the pic is now all over the internet since I had come across it in 2007.
If you search winking cougar... you'll find many versions of it now

Isn't that the guy who sold Arnie Cunningham a car ???


Yep the name is George LeBay, at least so in the movie, I'm not sure of the actors actual name...

These days we do bear a similar resemblance, with my grandson Nathaniel....
