_opens the signature exchange up for business_

This is your chance to demonstrate how well you know your fellow dopers. Give them a sig that encapsulates them or part of their personality. It can be serious, surreal or silly (or alliterative even).

I’ll start:

\*\* pLt:\*\* I could never love a girl who’d voluntarily go out with me

\*\* Bratman007: \*\* He’s not the cyber-messiah: just a very naughty boy!

\*\* PurpleBear: \*\* So sweet you’ll get diabetes from hanging out with her

Tymp: I’ll do everything ChrisP does, then his women will come to me…

Was that a little harsh?  
I’m sorry…  
_wink_

(If I knew how to use those damn smilies, I would)

Quite honestly, I have a couple, but you started this thread in the wrong area. I can’t post mine if this isn’t the Pit.

**dpr** RE: my sig line - you don’t think that’s too obscure, even for a Python reference?

Too bad I can’t stick around and play this game, but I’m on a conference call. This is two days in a row that I’ve actually had to work. I may have to turn in my resignatino if they keep expecting me to earn my paycheck.

Sorry to hear they’re actually making you work mate. Mongrels!!

How about:

\*\* Bratman007: \*\* The one doper who SHOULD’VE expected the Spanish Inquisition.

Or is that too obscure too? 😉
