that's alright possum. I've probably had around 50 different avatars since I've joined and I would say that around 99.9% of them have been American. No particular reason....apart from being a bit of a shirt-stirrer maybe 😀

Awkward? No. Sarcastic? drippping in it.
kmax is no mate of mine: There is nothing to be admired or respected in his desire to control and regulate his fellow man, but hey it's for they're own good isn't it kmax.
And I'm no mate of kmax': Too independent, might put concerns for my welfare ahead of my concerns for his welfare. He sure doesn't like that, doesn't like when the horse tries to shrug the saddle off.

No kmax, I gave the reasons, whether you make cracks about my having a heart or not having a heart, or half a heart, all that is inconsequential, so please continue if you so desire.
