it's the sail in the distance sailing away with the wind and clouds in the background. Or it could be a spinnaker coming towards you. (In my mind I can see the dolphins in front of the boat too).

Hey Todd, it's like a Rorschach test - the more immature you are the more movement and animals you see - (imagination and stuff).

Autism sort of depressed my brain development so i never fully matured so I get this stuff pretty quick.

In Ray's case I think he has a Spinnaker so I think his is a spinnaker in the distance but I'm not sure - could be a genoa.

Hey Ray! Is that a spinnaker or a genoa??

Best signature yet
Ok-- I stared at the signature and didn't get it. My son looked at it for 2 seconds and said "its a sailboat!". Was he right? :?:
Yep :!:
_ = the hull

)= the sail

~~~~~~~ = the water

I can’t go sailing, so I have been working on my watercolors.

This was based on a photo I took at the end of the Santa Monica Pier last February.

BOAT mentioned German cars, and this came to mind. it’s worse than you think.

These major companies have changed their logos (Not a joke).

Back in the day, we used to mess with each other by changing the DOS C-prompt (C:\ to those born in the 70's or later, in the dark 'pre-Windows' ages) on someone's computer to things like Bart Simpson's face, complete with blinking eyes, using keyboard characters.

Good times. :wink:

(Can't even find examples of creative command line prompts out there online; where did it all go?)
