Please help a brother out by posting suggestions for my new picture.
The best one will be put up when I log in 24hours later tomorrow morning.

holy cory!  i understand, though.  i'm still all fucked up about ghosts.  but i'm trying to put myself in situations (ie haunted houses) so that i'll get over it.  

have i told this story before?  my brother has a CRAZY fear of porcelain dolls.  and my mom has a tonne.  one day i was picking up some pictures i'd gotten developed, and there was a picture of him covered in the dolls, with them pulling his hair and stuff.  god damn i wish my scanner worked.  it is the funniest thing in the world.  whooo.  

dragz, here's what i found:

people have weird phobias - i now know two people who have button phobias.... one can't even wear clothes that have buttons on...

i have a coin purse that has about 20 buttons sewn on one side - my flatmate would make me turn it button side down if she saw it lying around.

i have never heard of a button phobia.  and you know TWO?  was there some crazy brand of buttons in australia that were slicing up peoples' fingers, or not staying closed properly, thereby exposing people?  buttons.  hm.  why would one be afraid of a button..

the girl who's 32 and afraid that ghosts are floating over her at night is trying to rationalize a fear.  okaaaaaaaaay.  ;)

on another forum I'm using the cover to "at dawn" as my avitar, but I considered it a bit contrived on this forum.  But who knows,  i might end up using it at some point.

dude, i say if you want to use at dawn, who cares what anybody else would think?  plus, i'm sure it's a pretty safe place to use it. ;)  nobody here's very snotty if that's what you're worried about.

i can get a bit moralistic sometimes, but i certainly can stand to see the at dawn cover as much as possible. :)

HAHA! Look what happens when you go to the gym for a couple of hours!!!
Some great pics right there!
I love EC's dragonboy & Ali's dragon pic but so far I'm leaning towards Tracy's Donald or John.

 ;D ;D ;D

this dude would've fit in great at rites of spring.  there was a lot of horns as well as goat-like activity in the way of ramming.
