Let me guess:
idea

You're from Phoenix AZ.confused laugh


Actually:

A phoenix is a mythical bird with a tail of beautiful gold and red plumage (or purple and blue, by some sources ). It has a 600-800 year life-cycle, and near the end the phoenix builds itself a nest of cinnamon twigs that it then ignites; both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young phoenix or phoenix egg arises, reborn anew to live again. The new phoenix is destined to live as long as its old self. In some stories, the new phoenix embalms the ashes of its old self in an egg made of myrrh and deposits it in the Egyptian city of Heliopolis (sun city in Greek). The bird was also said to regenerate when hurt or wounded by a foe, thus being almost immortal and invincible — it is also said that it can heal a person with a tear from its eyes and make them temporarily immune to death; a symbol of fire and divinity.

Phoenix used to play cricket (hence the ashes allusion)

He died a death at cricket, but rose again to become a top-ranking female volleyball umpire.

He likes to sit up on a high chair and look down benignly at the lady players.

Phoenix was quoted as saying:

'I love my job. it's the bestest job in the whole world!'
