You have two options for an avatar.
1. Hot Chick
2. Monkey
All others are aren't up what you would call 'high quality'.

Maybe you didn't see his current avatar. John Turturro isn't exaclty the greatest example of, "We did not descend from apes!"
And welcome.

Welcome to the site fell free to ask questions without a lot of gripping and people calling you an idiot or something like that. (I have seen that on other boards), I’ve found this one to be actually very friendly. This is ftr where "making money is fun!" see you around the forum…

Thanks

I changed it becuase the Pats are a dynasty.
