I like my sig, but I'm wondering, should I change it out with this one?

And yes, BOTH of them are movie quotes, even if the Punisher one is probably better known.

I'd go with the Punisher skull, just because a) it's new, and b) it looks cool. Never saw the movie, though.

I prefer the Dune quote, both because it is a classic literary reference (I am, quite obviously, one of those people who feel that a classic can be newer than Gilgamesh) and because it is a laudable sentiment.

Yeah my hubby was lucky: His school had Lord of the Rings as required reading; I got stuck with King Lear......which wasn't even true to the tale it was based on!

(yeah I even know the tales Shakespeare borrowed from; fear me)

I have a better idea: change yer avi!

It reminds of the time I had to venture into a nursery school in my early teens. Not cool... :?

And keep it such, so long as it doesn't turn into "Let the spice flow".

Speaking of Dune; did anyone else have a problem with what a whineyboy the second version turned him into?
If they'd had the original Paul (heck the original entire CAST) and the second's special effects. . the miniseries would have rocked!

but it just doesn't do to have a hero who's realistic about his survival chances "hmmm oh gosh; the Harkonnens are trying to wipe out my family; but if i fight back, I'm a MURDERER!" oh help /rant off

Nothing tops the books woot!

You mean nothing tops the ORIGINAL Books. I myself am not a fan of the ones written by KJA, though Frank seems to have done a good job in most of what I've read.
