Good bye old WoT quote, hello new one! [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]
I really did like this one, though. Love those prophecies. Oh, yeah, I still have my army recruitment link... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] Quote:

I just killed off my Matrix quotes... for a while. They'll be back. For now it's Douglas Adams for me... [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img]

I haven't had this sig for an overly long time, but it's time to change. Farewell, sweet words!

I'd only had these ones for a short time, but the Moxy Fruvous one is part of one of my favourite songs:

My old sig featured a haunting melody that helped get our choir straight ones for the UIL competition:

And now I lay this one to rest - it doesn't have any sort of sentimental value, just that I've had it for a very very long time.
Of all the Great Ones who dwell in this world the Elves hold Varda in most reverence and love. Elbereth they name her, and they call upon her name out of the shadows of Middle-earth, and uplift it in song at the rising of the waters. Still, time for a change.

Now I lay this one to rest. I liked it, it served me well, and is with its ancestors. Ashes to ashes, dust to dust...alleluia, alleluia, alleluia. Ok, enough.

I am, at long last, throwing off the tyranny of my ruling quote even as my forefathers did 227 years ago on the fourth of July!
Okay, so my quote wasn't exactly tyrannous. And I'm not exactly throwing it off, just trading it in for a new one by the same people and in the same song. Here it is anyway: Quote:

I'm finally retiring my sig (sniff, sniff)). It's the one I started with and I think I shall miss it. I'm replacing it with one of my favorite quotes.

Alas, as amusing as my old sig was, it was too long, so I lay it to rest in both its forms, way too long and just too long, here:
Too long: Maedhros bent over his father's lifeless body and heard an echoing voice: "This elf will explode in 5...4…3…2…1…BOOM!" And behold, the Sons of Fëanor were covered in a black dust and their father spontaneously burst into flame and disappeared entirely!" --from "Of Fëanor, the Exploding Elf" and Way too long: "Maedhros bent over the lifeless body of his father and heard a small, echoing voice from deep within Fëanor's chest, as if Mandos himself spoke from afar: "This elf will explode in 5...4…3…2…1…BOOM!" And behold, a great noise overcame the Sons of Fëanor, and they were covered in a black dust. They stood silent as their father spontaneously burst into flame and disappeared entirely!" --from the alternate Quenta Silmarillion, "Of Fëanor, the Exploding Elf" And now for something completely different... Cheers, Lyta

I really liked this one; it was pretty cool. And quite appropriate for the Downs.
I fled, and cried out Death; Hell trembled at the hideous name, and sighed From all her caves, and back resounded Death.

Oh, the horror! I've changed my signature. Here's my beloved year-and-a-half-old sig, which I'm sure I'll be returning to shortly:

As far as I know, the sig changes in all of your old posts as soon as you make your first post with your new sig, if that makes any sense.
