My avatar came from O Brother, Where Art Thou (actually, pilfered from the movie's web site), but its origins go back to one of those cheesy name games at some summer program or other while I was in high school. You were supposed to come up with an adjective that began with the same letter as your first name that somehow described you. The irony of "DapperDan", of course, is that I generally avoid dressing up whenever possible.
