Mine is a Simpsons version of me that some of the kids at the school where I work made of me.  It's scarily close to the real thing!

Cheers,

My dog, Arthur.  It was a grab shot.  I never really thought about meaning until now. The calming effect dogs have on us and the unconditional loyalty, affection and love they give.  We could learn a lot from our pets.

It may be down to the size of the picture you are using, maybe one of the very nice moderators will be able to advise. Smile

Mine is from an Elektra espresso machine that I rebuilt a couple of years ago.

Elektra Rebuilt Thread

Which got a new kitchen.

Thanks, it fits in well with our 50 year old "modern" house. We have an Eichler home, which is termed a 'mid-century modern' house style with a huge number of floor to ceiling glass walls. Of course it was built when heating costs were a lot lower and without our California climate, it would be hard to build in other areas.  We love the amount of light in the morning.

Just me on vacation. We flew out to Bowling Green Kentucky where we picked up a new toy. Then drove back to California.


That explains the big smile!  Big Grin

But it couldn't be the toy I'm thinking of, you can't carry much lumber in them.  Wink

Mine's a shot of me playing at the Coyotes Center; we're good friends with a rival team so we organized a game at the NHL rink before a Coyotes game then did a huge BBQ in the parking lot before the game.

I took a hit to the knee nearly 3 months ago, but kept playing another 17 games before deciding I should give it a chance to heal.  Sitting here while my teams are playing is incredibly difficult.  Eek!

For the record, the guy in black is pointing, but he isn't pointing to the penalty box with my arms up going, "what? me?!".  This was during warmups when I noticed (easily...) that their side of the ice had a lot of fans... 20 of them all stunning with their team shirt.  The story goes that one of the guys is an orthodontist and in their office, they basically have all stunning assistants (and one chunky one for diversity  Tongue Out).  I had my teeth straightened in high school, but I think I need a touch-up...
