Mine has personal spiritual significance. I am carrying my staff as I go out to part the weeds in the raspberry patch.

Nope, It's a negative, and it's sorta "pastelized" (to create a word for it).

Figgered you knew that, but wasn't sure if you'd ever seen the profusion of blackberries in late summer there, so thought I'd share that with ya. It really is incredible. Only seen it once 28 years ago, but I think I still have stains on my fingers from picking so many.

Yeah, I have about 70 pounds of them in my freezer, and those were all wild. The things will spring up in your lawn if you forget to mow it.

I change mine every week or so. It's usually John Gill, J. C. Philpot, Dostoevsky and Lead Belly.

Mine has changed multiple times since I have been here. I used to have a guy standing at the edge of a diving board ready to jump in and another was a kid dunking his head in a toilet, both references to me being a Baptist and believing in immersion. After I felt a little convicted that I was making fun of a belief that my predecessors were willing to be persecuted for, I put one on of me with my two kids.

My current Avatar is the solar eclipse popularized by the show Heroes with the symbol in the center from the same show.

Oh yeah. And my title under my name that says "The Dallas Cowboys are America's Team!" is a lie foisted on me by the evil Administrator of the Dark Side who goes by the name Lich Reino.
