We need an av of Colombo saying to JS Bach, "Oh, one more question . . . ."

Columbo: You gonna finish that fugue?
Bach: Be my guest.

*Fugue turns out to be a brand of cigar*

That could kinda fit Janacek too. :)

Artwork that we were unable to see while on our trip in Boston:



The Concert: a painting of c. 1664 by Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer.  Still has not been recovered. :-\

Oh did you go to the MFA Bill?  Or the Harvard Art Museums?  They're great! :)

<---- Jacques, my son's Sock Monkey. Not sure why he's French, but I made him to be, he even has a French accent. I was contemplating celebrating my 500 post with a new avatar though.

Spartacus: Blood and Sand.

Good series.

Question -- I had actually made this gif avatar months earlier, but (for me) it just appeared. I had actually forgotten about it, but I guess something must have updated on my browser or something. Anyway, was I sporting it this whole time or did something change in the forums to allow it to appear?

I have not seen you with an avatar in a long time, except it when it said hot linking not allowed! :D

Aha.

No hot linking allowed-- the 4'33 of avatars.

At first glance, I thought MN Dave's avatar was of a baseball player.  Perhaps a 'Cooperstown' image.

Now I realize it is of a violinist.   :D

It is. He's a nice fellow if you don't piss him off.  ;D

I'm glad you didn't change it. Love the Sock Monkey and...well, it's so you  ;D

Thanks, Sarge.
Perhaps I'll just change it to another Sock Monkey pic. I would hate to lose the respect of my fellow GMG'rs because I deleted Jacques!  :o :)

Yup, the spittin' image of 'ol Sam Thompson, right down to the lefty stance!
