I have really good balance on towers, trees, high places and get called all kinds of <insert expletive here> crazy for it.

But slipping on ice and having zero control?  It scares the hell out of me!
 

Now seeing someone fall, it's impossible not to laugh because it just looks funny.  Of course if in person I have to at least make sure they are alright. ;)

SHGs are back breakers. 

The Bruins set a record in 2010 during a game against Carolina by scoring 3 short-handed goals on the same penalty kill (it was a 2-minute minor); it took all of a minute and 4 seconds to do the job.  They won 4-2.

In my Head i picture everyone as their profile pic.  Stormtraker let IS Beethoven.  You are Bob Dylan.  Mrs. J is Mrs. Slocombe be from Are you being served.  Maestrobjw be is a sentient treble cleff.  I get disappointed when I see peoples real pics and they look nothing like I pictured them.

Eta: Just noticed someone else Ninja-ed me.

I hear ya - I do exactly the same.

I don’t really look a ton like Dylan, but I’d like to think that being viewed as a young version of him is a good thing!

Since I don’t know what anyone looks like I always just picture people as their avatars.  Like I don’t even know what some people’s avatars actually are but they become the image of that particular poster. So you basically are Beethoven in my mind. 

Right... So I have a bias to picture people as their username. As an example, here is mappy...

Wow we had the same thought within like a half hour of each other.  Kinda weird!

I love that you know who Mrs Slocombe from Are You Being Served is. I have in the past had a turquoise peacock stripe in my hair. May have to get it done again as I lurch towards 50. :whistle:

I'm fine with that.  I've had the same avatar since Wright weather BB.  Then Easternuswx and now.  It'll never change (except for MLK birthday).   I hated classical music before (white people music!!)..but then I accidentally found myself listening to Beethoven's 9th (there was nothing else to listen to and I found an old CD in my desk drawer of his 9th)....and from that point on, I fell in love with classical music.  

Lesson is to always have an open mind and heart.

That catchy theme song with cash register effects us running through my head right now.

I think Ji may be one if the few exceptions.  I've seen pictures if him before but in my head I still picture him as looking somewhat like Sheldon from Big Bang Theory.  Not sure why.
