Is it still Xmas at your end of existence?

What are the consequences of the inexistence of your avatar for your own existence?

Well, I hope it's not what they call an "omen". You can see it, too, right? It's not just me?

It is now boxing day, and a pleasant 20C. Christmas Day is now yesterday, which was 43C here. (I think, either we are experiencing a "cool change", or the heat is making me hallucinate.)

I too can also see that the unseeable is unseeable.

Back in Blighty it has been rather frigid. Some sunshine on the day itself, but Xmas Eve heralded the start of a cold snap. No snow, of course, although it was predicted. Circa 150° on the [Wikipedia] Delisle scale

Looking at your profile, I notice that "Interests: Nil known."

Might the lack of interests be related to the lack of avatar?
