Dear lajzar,
I've got to go with Eowyn. Maybe it's my Celtic heritage, but ladies who can wield a mean broadsword (pun perhaps intended) and can also be gentle and caring (as Eowyn was in LOTR) get my vote over Ms Sparkly Pants and Ms Aloha - neither of whom would I feel too confident about were they beside me when the minions of the Dark Lord poured over the battlements.
Regards,
John |

Maybe it's Caper's celtic heritage, too. She doesn't want to let go of that avatar! Shame.

I am a big fan of the new avatar because it appears to be an exotic-looking Asian women, although I do wish she had bigger boobs  |

Same goes for me. My own Celtic heritage resonates, as does johnslat's reasoning - strength and compassion prove a very nice tandem. Aloha comes in a distant second, whereas Sparkle is - well - kinda Pam Anderson-esque.

I still think the sparkly pants one was the best on Dave's. The new one is nice too. The site she got the two animated pictures from is pretty cool. There's one of a girl with a yo-yo that is funny. |

So, Lajzar, for which avatar did you vote?
I chose Sparkly Pants because I thought she was cute. I chose Eowyn because of her Celtic look, her strength, and the fact that my hair looked a lot like hers at the time (really long, really blonde). Now my hair looks a lot more like the third avatar's and I think her dress is very pretty. However, I don't really see her as "Asian-looking"; that's not really the look I was after.
Hmmm...I'm going to see what else I can find.  |

You chose Eowyn for how she _looks_? <hangs head> I like her because she says something about your character; strength, courage, and compassion all rolled into one. The others say nothing. |

Act IV, Scene I, l 185)
Quote: |
The quality of mercy is not strained.
It droppeth as the gentle rain from heaven,
Upon the place beneath.
It is twice blessed.
It blesseth him that gives and him that takes.
It is mightiest in the mightiest,
It becomes the throned monarch better than his crown.
His sceptre shows the force of temporal power,
An attribute to awe and majesty.
Wherein doth sit the dread and fear of kings.
But mercy is above this sceptred sway,
It is enthroned in the hearts of kings,
It is an attribute to God himself.
And earthly power dost the become likest God's,
Where mercy seasons justice.
Therefore Jew,
Though justice be thy plea, consider this,
That in the course of justice we all must see salvation,
We all do pray for mercy
And that same prayer doth teach us all to render the deeds of mercy.
I have spoke thus much to mittgate the justice of thy plea,
Which if thou dost follow,
This strict court of Venice
Must needs give sentence gainst the merchant there.

A wise man once said that loving someone is hard. Loving the bits you like, that's easy. But that's not enough. You gotta love completely. You gotta love teh bits you don't like. Only then can you say I love you and mean it.
Sorry, what was the question again? |
