I've always wondered about yours.
That's a great anecdote and a reference which I've never come across. Groo the Wanderer.
I like it!
Guess mine?
You? Anne Hathaway? I don't know... I guess I need to work on my guessing.
That was the original BHW logo? From how long ago? I see that you joined in 2011 (which was before me), so I wasn't around in the days before the black/gold globe scheme.
I like it!

The logo I did for my web design business
Your logo has now changed... I sure hope that isn't your web design business' new logo!

Mine is the adopted colors of the rastafarian faith and the colors of he Ethiopia flag. I belive in the way of life of rasta and try to live that myself. Although I fail at the diet, not smoking pot (my own choice) and other things but most of all you give me respect for no matter what I look like and I will give it right back. Lets work together and not against each other. Never get that concept!
Bless up!
Bless up!

I was a tank commander on the East/West German border and in Desert Storm.... which pretty much explains that pic. Plus, it's extremely gratifying shooting stuff; and particularly fun running over shit like cars, trees, people shooting at you or pretty much anything that pissed you off. Sixty three tons of M1A1 rarely loses an argument...

You sound like you must have a plethora of interesting life stories... I'd read your autobiography for sure.
Adopt a way of thinking not for the restrictions to your personal life but for the values it affirms! I like it.
One of the more colorful and interesting looking logos I've seen.
The great and almighty muscleteen has graced us with his presence! All bow!
I love that show. It's in a league of its own, and these last few episodes are living up to expectations for sure!

It's epic for sure. My favorite of all time was Sopranos but this season, especially this last half of season 5 had pretty much got me leaning to BB.

Sopranos is next on my list. I've never really been one for TV shows but in the last year or so I've been introduced to a few gems. Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, and (on the complete opposite side of the spectrum) Arrested Development.
I'm sure there are more but I don't have much free time these days. I'm sure I'm not alone in that!
Edit: Also I've recently discovered It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia! I haven't seen much but it seems funny.

It reminds me of the most beautiful copy I ever heard. Don Draper from Mad Men is giving a pitch to the execs of Kodak. He wants to change the name of the prototype Kodak carousel. Only the execs have been calling it the Kodak wheel. Don Draper uses the carousel (with the old cine-screen) to show the execs old pictures of his family. Don is currently having a hard time deciding wether he should stay with his wife and family or flee with the woman he is having an affair with. That and Don Draper is a legend!
"Nostalgia - it's delicate, but potent. Teddy told me that in Greek, "nostalgia" literally means "the pain from an old wound." It's a twinge in your heart far more powerful than memory alone. This device isn't a spaceship, it's a time machine. It goes backwards, and forwards... it takes us to a place where we ache to go again. It's not called the wheel, it's called the carousel. It let's us travel the way a child travels - around and around, and back home again, to a place where we know are loved."
