The yellow ribbon may confuse some as the yellow ribbon is also for waiting for a member of the family to come home from war (Tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree)

I love the cartoon of yours. How about GBP enthusiast..a journeyman devoted health

I am also weary of all the ribbons-- I think so many things have been "ribbon-ized" lately that the whole concept has just become cliche.

The owl is a Disney creation -- they're pretty fussy about their copyrights. (link: Disney Rarities - Owl)

I really like "Baron of Bariatrics" -- it's just so appropriate and catchy!

Patrick, love your caricature, and the concept. Not crazy about Sage (comes across to me a bit pompous, and you are so NOT that), but I love Baron of Bariatrics, or perhaps Bariatrics Baron. I have to agree about the ribbon - it really doesn't hit the target for me.

Your right - they're not that good, nor does "sage" describe me.

I'm getting a headache from beating my head against the wall trying to figure out the right word or words.

I see myself as too complicated, so I'm asking all of you, my friends, how would you describe me, based on my postings here, and my dream posting from last week or so.

I can't wait to see the ideas!

Thanks!
