   I understood that. The use as a cursor does explain the large triangular   
   shield, though: to be the pointer end of the pointer.

   Not my site. I'd be unlikely to collect much more than the ones I've   
   drawn myself, but one of several good archives that exist.

   She was not born with that name, but had it changed to Dragon. She still   
   goes by that among friends, but last I heard she was going to change her   
   first name to something else for easier dealing with bureaucracy. I   
   haven't seen her in three or four years. She still goes by that name on   
   Linkedin, so she owns it still enough to use for employment.
