Something that has had me wondering for a while... I wonder why there are some that have their avatar of a burning house? Dont most wood burners fear this most? I know I do. Not knocking anyones avatar, just more curious than anything else........
 
We all have our phobias, fearing the house burning down is a heathy one. But hey, some people probably fear Ted Nugent. :cheese:
 
I thought that was Weird Al Yankovic, actually...
 
I think the burning house is just a representation of a toasty house. Sort of bragging how hot one's house is. But what do I know.
 
My very favorit has got to be FireWalker's, though it's not his avatar, it's his sig: "Hearthstone Equinox. Heating most of the neighborhood"
 
Not sure about the burning house one, mine is what it is because that is how I feel sometimes.

I thought it was Gallengher going to smash something. :lol:
 
A burning house is negative. I'd rather stick to the positive.
 
My current avitar was put up after paying my wife's dentist bill. :bug:
 
mine is where I would rather be, besides there aren't many good OPB pictures.
 
Mine is basic suburban "yard art" and I like it.
 
Mine is my birthday gift from my wife...she gets the wood thing, and I love her for it.
 
Mine is an album cover from the Minutemen - album name "What Makes a Man Start Fires". I never thought anybody would get it, and wouldn't you know it, on my second post, somebody had it figured out....

Mine is me doing what I do :D
Ditto. Me doing what I do after the wood's been put up for the year. (Well, I sneak a few races in between.)
You guys that mistake The Nuge for Gallagher or Weird Al....you must live way deeper in the woods than me. LOL.
 
Mine is what I would like to be doing, tipi camping. Hopefully this lodge won't be burning! :ahhh:
 
Mine represents my love of winter. The summer is cool too, but around here it means bugs, humidity and chitty beaches!
 
mine is just my stove.
 
I changed it to macgruber. Funny for the exact same reason I used the nuclear explosion. oh and probably only funny to me....and I am ok with that!
 
Hmmm :coolhmm: My new one is what someone would think the north is all the time, BUT we do get two days a year that looks like this. Thursday and Friday according to Uncle Brother Bart.
