Hey I understand about the school thing. I have final next week. Although I finished college many years ago, I'm taking a college course in connection with my work.
About the avatar. It is a painting that I really like, but it has an inner meaning for me. I believe the cowboy riding the horse is me. It portrays what I like to do and the cowboy life. The baby calf being rescued from the winter storm is the child (AB/DL) part of me, which is protected by the cowboy me. --OK, I know, that's pretty deep, but that's what I like about the picture and why I chose it. Besides, I just think its a cool picture of a cowboy saving a baby calf from the storm.
