A whiskey barrel with a hand-painted Dickens scene on it! [Dickens Whiskey](http://www.seawaychina.com/Dickens-Whiskey-Barrel-on-Stand-Royal-Doulton-Seriesware.aspx) Apparently Dickens’ likeness and quotes have been used to sell J&B whiskey too. ---

I wasn’t even going to do the search because it was pretty obvious what it would be but I searched anyway and was mostly correct except for a couple pictures of some stupid bird that were mixed in with mine. ---

Many different things - a mispainted buS stop, a weird giant sculpture, cough medicine, but my favorite is a [giant balloon turtle](http://www.misterbup.be/?p=welkom&lan=uk). ---

I get a lot of Jack of Diamonds, with the other suits far behind in representation - and all behind various ‘Jack of all trades’ pictures. But the first row is mostly t-shirts showing word clouds in the shape of disney characters. ---

I get many, many images of some sort of fantasy warrior princess with colossal mammaries. That’s not what Teela Brown looked like! Unless there’s some comic book character that I never heard of bearing that same name for some reason. I only saw one [image](http://fc07.deviantart.net/fs71/f/2010/347/f/1/teela_on_the_ringworld_by_arcass-d34tyzc.jpg) that looked kind of like my mental image of Teela Brown. ---

The Greek god/titan, of course. I’m surprised by how few of them are classical, however. A lot of them seem to be from some game I’ve never heard of named “Smite”. EDIT: > [@](#): > > I get many, many images of some sort of fantasy warrior princess with colossal mammaries. That’s not what Teela Brown looked like! Unless there’s some comic book character that I never heard of bearing that same name for some reason. That’s a character from the old Masters of the Universe cartoon named Teela. She doesn’t have the last name “Brown” (nor any other last name, I think), but that’s a pretty common word, and Saturday morning cartoons are a lot more popular than science fiction novels. ---

Got a lot of fluffy cat pictures and some pickles… a few hits from SDMB including these [cute little ghosties](http://farm4.staticflickr.com/3742/10480481493_c7b2be4f6f_b.jpg) and one of [Hal Briston](http://i.imgur.com/LQ3wBAu.jpg) - I assure you, I don’t look NEARLY as good as Hal does… my shape is more like that of the little ghosties… though not as cute. Maybe I’ll claim one of the fluffy cats as me. I do like this fluffy pickle dog though: [fluffy pickle dog](https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/a7/02/6a/a7026acf1c56603793c9700152563085.jpg) ---

While I didn’t see it, apparently one came up as a chicken with his head cut off, and so it was used as my avatar with the avatar script. At least, that’s their excuse. For me, I get lots of ways of turning my name into a signature or logo, and a few big(-ish) black guys. Oh, and [this image](https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSiXH9fsVi4jPio-UNaTV5VY0-JslkRkcY5CukoYNtOSiXxqM8yiQ), which I think I’ll make my new avatar.
