Status: offline 		Okay this forum is growing in leaps and bounds and I gotta admit some of the handles out there are boring (like mine) but some are really "out there" and frankly I don't get them.... Some make me laugh every time I see them, maybe cause of the Avatars I don't know.....

Might be fun if you explain what your name is all about or the story behind picking it?

LIKE (I'm not pickin on ya or anything) WHAT IS htraenoecaep OR Jick or Kufan... (your avatar is a riot)

I'll start.....First time to a forum so didn't know I should make something up....see boring!!!

NEXT....COME ON.....

I too have wondered about some of the login names. Sometimes I regret that I didn’t selected a better login. I wish I had capitalized emel…like Emel. My moniker is my name, Mel and the initial of my last name and it sounds kinda like email. Maybe it should be EMel. If this were a Cozumel forum, I would have selected CozuMel. That would be cool. I could be Mel in Texas, but in deference to Steve…I just couldn’t.

Status: offline 		Guess I am gonna jump in here..Journey has been my nickname for years, when one of my friends called me by this and it stuck. Then my granddaughter came along and they changed the spelling, but, the name is still the same, "Jerney". Perfect name, she is such a little trip, full of spunk, spark and enthusiasm for life. I felt honored to have her share my name and to be her "nanna".

I fell in love with the Roo in the first ten minutes of my first visit, not just with the water and sand, but, with the mayan people and their ways, their connection to the earth and it's energy. It wasn't hard to combine the things I love the most to become "Mayajerney".

Brandy

And no it has nothing to do with me being a magician. Although, I do hold some pretty good tricks up my sleeve.

Status: offline 		Funny you should post this today. I was sitting at my desk(should have been working) and I kept looking at one really strange name. The only thing I could think of was to try and spell it backwards, and Voila! Now I get it...As for us...when we get back we are going to change our name to something else and HOPEFULLY the two young ladies going with us can take over the "old name"......lol

Status: offline 		OK Michelle I can answear at least one of these. First of all, since you live in Canada I forgive you for not knowing what KUFAN means. There is a place called Kansas University located in Lawrence Kansas and believe it or not they have actually have some fans. They are called Jayhawks and they are part of an elite group known as the BIG 12!!!! So KUFAN means that they support their favorite college team, theirs being KU. Hopefully they are basketball fans, not football.
Sorry if I am losing you there Michelle, but me being a KSUFAN,{Kansas State University} we are rivals in the sportsworld.
Hope this helps!!!
Now really can anyone help with htraenoecaep???? What is that????
PS GO KSTATE!!!!!

Status: offline 		I do alot of hiking and I can go uphill faster than I can go down that same trail lots of times. The spelling makes me not have to be uphillclimber 2047 or some such thing. I post everywhere under that name, it is distinctive.

Also, in a previous life, my whole life was an uphill klimb. That's not so much true anymore.

Status: offline 		Good idea Michelle

Well, five years ago i decided to join in the fantasy football craze that hubby was in
so I took over his losing team and brought it to the top
He couldn't believe what I had done with it. Picked up unknowns and they
ended up doing very well. Made some good trades etc.
He was so impressed he named me "footballgoddesss"
Since then I'm kind of fantasy football nutz

As for the avatar??????????

Well that's my real name !!!!!

I thought - what a great internet name and have used it ever since.

Yes, I'm just the texture on your ceiling!

Nicknamed my wife, for posting messages..."Sweety". Nothing that refers to our favorite place in the world (QROO), but it's all I could come up with when I joined LG.

Status: offline 		Emel - you coulda put "in Texas" on your screen name. When I first signed up like 10 years ago EVERBODY had "in Texas" or "from Florida" or wherever theyw ere from in their screen name. I took a few years off from the board and when I came back used my original name just so that if any old timeres were still around they'd remember me. Turns out only two people did, so now I wished I'd have picked something a tad cooler...

Rugby Princess

Status: offline 		Good question Michelle! I've been wondering about a few screen names also.

My name is actually kind of stupid IMHO. I ended up becoming the de facto "team mom" for my son's rugby team, but I had stated from the beginning that I did not want the team mom moniker. I also declined to be the rugby queen. If any of you know rugby, you'd understand why I declined that position also. I was known as the Queen Mum for a short while and then one of my son's friend started calling me Princess and it just stuck. They even gave me a tiara and I display it proudly.

Told you it was stupid. Even if I could change it, I don't have a clue what I would change it to.

Status: offline 		So funny you posted this Michelle - just yesterday I was wondering the same thing about the 3 you mentioned ... jick kufan (I'm from the US and couldn't figure that one out either) and hatecrap (that's what I think when I see his). I'm anxious to read his response. Yesterday he mentioned something about his website - turns out he's a magician of sorts. I tried to link that in somehow and still nothing. Good thread - let's us learn a bit about the personalities here. Mine...? Well .... a not very creative loco here.
