Logo/Avatar contest

Okay, inspired by Sabreur's request.

Which avatar should I use for December 2007?

Old Temple Logo with hat.

Current Temple Logo with hat.

Hooter face with hat.

Hooter with hat.

Attacking Owl logo with hat.

Poll runs through the weekend, I'll swap to the new avatar (assuming no issues with being able to adjust filesize, etc.), as selected by the community here next week.

Which is the old and which is the new temple logo?

I'd say the one you have now; is that "new"?

The poll options are in the same order as the image thumbnails.

The Temple T that I use as my standard avatar is the current Temple logo.

The slightly orangey T with an owl perched on top is an old logo (several iterations ago).

Um... no.

Being from Buffalo, NY, I can say with some authority that in spite of what they write on the back of the Hooter's menu about the proprietors moving to Florida and missing Buffalo chicken wings, what is served at Hooter's is not particularly close to a good Buffalo chicken wing.

I imagine that the only reason to frequent a Hooters is for the breasts - and possibly the thighs. Not the wings. Never the wings.

Not that I'd know, of course.

Hooter face with hat is the only one that doesn't look sillier than the others.

There is a place near my old apartment called "BBGs", or "Bikini's Bar and Grill". The primarily female staff wear bikini tops and denim shorts and are all extremely attractive. They also have dozens of HDTVs and free wireless, so it's really not a bad place to burn some time at.

My outsourced Badly Drawn Santa Hat has arrived, BTW.

The wings really aren't that bad. Granted I don't do buffalo I usually get plain but they're generally pretty tasty. Definitely an NAC staple in most cities.

To highjack Brad's thread:

Should I get a holiday avatar this year and finally break my streak of never having an avatar?

Holiday avatars are the best.

I voted for the current temple logo with a hat, because it looks silly.

LOL...when I was a kid all we had was McDonalds and some freak in a clown custome (i think all clowns are John Wayne Gasy types).

I'm very familiar with "boobies" but, pray tell, what exactly are "boombies"? Maybe boobies from Bombay (now Mumbai) India?

My child is very advanced. "boobies" and "boombies" are the same thing when your 6.
