Alright, so I'm thinking it's about time to get myself a new avatar. I really like the Court symbol, but I can't decide between

Here's it with a transparent background, both with border and without.
The second one is 125x55.

Yeah, I was going to go for the black background one, but I have no idea when I'll be able to get it, so go ahead and take whichever you like; I'd rather see it receive a good home than be lost in the darkness of the internet because I "claimed" it and never used it.

11:13: Despite Gio Gonzalez warning, "Never mix your sparkling juices," Bryce Harper opens another bottle of sparkling grape and mixes it with sparkling cider.

1:07: Harper walks to the 7-11 and orders an all-syrup Slurpee.

1:10-3:05: Harper has no recollection of this time. Aliens?

They don't like to be identified. I think supporting the comic has the same effect, though.

I want to bring the discussion back to something said a while ago, about how despite magic/science, there's still human problems to be solved. Annie and her father are still distanced despite all the fancy ways to communicate. There's something incredibly nuanced and sad about that, how even the best tools possible can't patch up a relationship between people.

MSPA being on hiatus for the week and the comics poll talk in the general thread motivated me to finally read up to date in one day. Really regret not looking at this comic sooner.

Your av and Acebuckeye13's made the top of this page pretty cool. Stacked on top of each other like that, they rock.

We need to organise the GC avs and titles to make a page in which the avatars are the real conversation, rather than the posts.
