What does your avatar and name mean?

Well, my name was honestly just pulled out of my butt, literally. I joined the website becuase I used it for about 7 months and always wanted to post, but never did. So one day I said screw it and threw together ElDorito. My avatar is Venom, who is by far the coolest supervillian ever (at least in Marvel...) It flashes nice thanks to Oni! thanks again.. Curious what yours means...

Pandora, did you see 'Lost In Translation' with Bill Murray (one of his few serious roles)?

I, personally, thought the movie was sublimely great.
Yes, I did... it was pretty good (not really my usual type of movie, i.e. drama)... I really love Scarlet Johansson in it...

DoNotCall = Do Not Call (yes, really). I'm not too big of a telemarketing fan.

My name relates back to the music of the late 80's. I was really into bands like The Clash, The Cure, Pixies, the Cult, and so on. I had some really great times. At the time, the recording industry was having some trouble labeling these bands. Punk didn't really fit, and it certainly wasn't the sound of Madona or Tiffany. Then I began seeing this type of music referred to as Post-Modern. I kind of liked that. Thought it made some sense.

Then at some point they began to refer to it as Alternative. That was kind of cool too. Then "Alternative" became the mainstream. That I didn't like.:thumbdown
So, postmodfan was born.

My name goes back to highschool, I have changed it over 8 years, sadly. I was known as "chuckles" in high school band, but I couldn't get it on AIM, so I went to mrlaugh. on aim, I'm mystalaugh, because stupid aol wouldn't let me keep it after I mistakenly signed up for AOL (used it for 3 weeks).

former rock eater and my avatar refer to the marching band at Wisconsin. One of our Mottos was "eat a rock!" which was basically "suck it up, get it done, etc" and the avatar is bucky badger, the WI mascot, dressed as drum major

The name comes from me being an Eaglescout and the 48 was my troop number back in the day. As for the avatar, I'm Buddhist (think that was pretty obvious).
