Howdy from cow town!

Just to add to the snark...An axle rod could also be called a shaft. You can draw your own conclusions on that one.

My current avatar is a picture a parent sketched for me after a concert. (I'm a music teacher) It's weird and funny, and actually captures a little bit of why I do what I do. So I like it. But in real life my beard isn't nearly as cool as this guy's. Nor is my hat.

That is very cool I can see why you'd like it. With my eyesight being what it is and our avatar pics so small I thought the beard was straw. Like someone crossed the wicked witch with scarecrow.
