Wow, 1tinsoldier has a "new" look and name..

The letter is the initial of my father's name, my middle name, my diet, and is the symbol for peace when it is formed with the index and middle fingers spread apart.

thanks Jane of Arc (the artist formerly known as What?) 1tinsoldier, the name, the song, and the image I used, though inspirational, was somewhat cold and sad. Besides, I found another guy in cyberspace using the same name.
