Mr Sparky was my cat - we found him abandoned in the middle of a road as a kitten and nursed him back to health.
When I was offered a free domain name by my hosting co. One time offer stuck for a name and Mr Sparky - a real character jumped up on the desk - hence the name of my site, and the user name on forums ever since.
Sadly he got run over. Some builders had found him and did the decent thing. Years later I found out that a group of teenagers had done the dirty deed because they thought was a fun thing to do.
This litte guy was a real character, everyone loved him, friends still mention him now. So my avatar has been never changed it, probably never will.
Might be silly to some folks - but compared to some humans - give me a cat anyday :)
