Whats in a name...

greetings greetingss...
A lot of you been asking whats with the salamander thing. A salamander is an amphibian that lives mostly in fresh water. Its also the mythical symbol of fire. The name actually comes from a recurrent dream of mine. In it, there was this pink and white salamander. Whats even more weird was that it had only one arm and one leg. It always look at me with intelligent eyes as though it wants to say something but can't. Anyway, that's the story...i'm not sure what its suppose to symbolise. What do u all think? am i a closet nutcase?
