My user title is just because I was too scared to face the LJ challenge. So I thought I'd make a feature of it.

My sig is just a great line from a poem. Will change it pretty soon to be..... another great line from a poem. Versatility is not my middle name. Actually.... that may be my next user title.

Versatility? Not as hot as Sundae Girl... not as many condiments go with it.

I am on the LJ user title bandwagon (excellent work so far on his part) at present, but my sig has usually been a quote of some sort that ties to my user title. I'm not using quotes at the moment, but I still like to have the two items bearing some relation to one another. I sort of think of it as two halves of the same (ass)hole.

My sig: "That which does not kill me had better run pretty damn fast"

I use it on several different boards and it has two meanings.

Originally, it was "That which does not kill me only makes me stronger". This was a motto of mine as a result of surviving years of parental and then spousal abuse. However, as I matured, I became less timid and passive. I found my voice and began to speak up and fight injustice and abuse in any form. I discovered I can be quite effective in this when I am outraged enough. So, I changed my motto to it's current form.

It's secondary meaning relates to the online MMORPG I play - Everquest. I play a silk caster, the squishiest of them all. My character dies extremely easily however I am also a raid leader which means I lead between 50 and 70 RL people (also playing their characters) into battle against the game's baddest bad guys. So if something attacks me, it better kill me or I will sic the entire raid force on it's butt and turn it into nothing but a grease stain (so run fast!!).

Simple. I am easily distracted by horses. That is all there is to say about that.

"Sìn a nall na cuaranan sin. -- Cha mhór is fheairrde thu iad, tha iad coltach ri cat air a dhathadh" is Gaelic for "Hand me over those moccasins. -- They will not help you much, they are like a singed cat."

zompist.com is the original source. Looking back, I'm not sure why I thought it was funny...I think I was just tweaking people who use olde worlde sayings in everyday life because they think they're wood elves.

Stephen Hawking recently wrote that he now believes a "Theory of Everything" to be unattainable, due to the paradox that we cannot remove ourselves, as observers, from the physical universe which we are a part of.

Something like this realization, that we are our own biggest obstacle to understanding, is what I believe Zappa refers to in my signature quote. I think what he means is, you have to free yourself from convention in order to achieve anything of consequence.

Okay...I cannot go any longer without saying this, and I hope that you aren't offended, HH, as I mean it with the greatest of respect and admiration...

I cannot look at this picture without wishing that I was that horse's back.

I truly put that in as gentlemanly a manner as I could muster.

C'mon Elspode admit it. You have a thing for centaurs, don't you.
