Love the avatar!
I'd say, "Oh, to be at the helm of a ship" but, really, I'd be scared to death...one does not live in the middle of the Australian Outback, watch Jaws when one is very young and then not see/swim in the ocean until the age of seventeen without having a healthy fear of the briny deep!
In fact, though I find it impossible to appreciate all that goes into the series (due to my ignorance in all things 'marine' except for fishing in rivers and going whale watching once!), I really do love how LST makes me have to get out of my comfort zone and imagine how the world would be if I could only view our seas and oceans as pathways to other worlds, instead of a barrier hemming me in...or one that must be overflown by wings.
I also love the signature...so, so true!
