Apparently I never set up an avatar. I'll get right on that....

Bucky: Hey, I don't need the MAN to approve my record. I can do that myself.
Bucky: I don't need the MAN to tell people to buy my record. My talent will do that. I don't need constant adoration & ego stroking to feel good about myself, I'm not a DOG. You say jump, I say how RUDE.
Rob: Gotcha. You question authority, eh?
Bucky: No, I annoy authority. More effect, less effort.
Get Fuzzy is my favorite comic strip these days. I have 4 books of Get Fuzzy strips.

My screen name is from one of my favorite poems by Tennyson. Ulysses. The avatar, which changes on occasion but the theme is the same, is because I am a Black Woman married to a White man.

Me? I'm Russian. And the avatar? Stalin. Bloodthirsty dictator, snappy dresser.

The name is because my best friend in highschool dated this dork who thought he was some sort of gangsta, hanging out at the suburban malls. We called him G Money Posse. I have a pronounced brow and overbite so I've been told that I look like an angry monkey when I'm concentrating on things other than my facial expressions, such as doing hair, studying, having sex, etc.

My avatar changes but right now it's Louise Brooks because I think that she's cool and my hair is kind of similar in cut and color, but I'm growing out the bangs.

My name's rather obvious, if you have some common sense...
My Avatar is from the Movie "Hang Em High" with Clint Eastwood...
My Signature is from a framed quote hanging by my bed, that was given as a gift a few birthdays back... I sometimes glace at it upon wakening, and hope for the best that day...

I'm a big fan of the Phillies and Major League Baseball and my favorite show is "Baseball Tonight." There is only one seam on a baseball.

Illiniwek ties together my university and the Prairie State, where I was born.

My current avatar is Brock Samson, who is trapped in the Jonny Quest-gone-wrong world of the Venture Bros.
