Thanks, Tony, for helping me with my new avatar.

Its pretty obvious - the house flag of Black Ball Line of clipper ships on the New York-Liverpool run
Needless to say, I never laid eyes on any of them, but the Black Ball Line still exists, out here on
the West Coast. It only has one ship, the MV Coho that plys daily between Port Angeles, on
the Olympic Peninsula and Victoria, B.C. and I have sailed on her a couple of dozen times, so I am
adopting the house flag as my avatar - for a while.

"My flash man he's a Yankee
With his hair cut short behind.
He wears a pair of long seaboots
And he sails in the Black Ball Line."

Definitely no storage charge, they'll be here whenever you want them: the red shield with Maple leaf and Canada insignia and the little sail boat. :D :lol:
