    My name is Susan, and I want to be "a better Susan" so "bettersusan" is the first thing that popped into my head! :smile:

    My friend always used to call me Toots, like Tootsie...and the 99 is from Agent 99 on Get Smart. I don't know why I used Agent 99, but I really like the number 9, so two is better than one. :laugh:

    When my daughter was a teenager she had some friends that called me Momma Red because of my red hair. When I created my hotmail account, mommared1, mommared2, mommared3 and so on was already spoken for so I used my birth year (1953) and came up with mommared53.

    Mine is currently first initial, last name.

    But I used to always go by bassbonebabe = my instrument is bass trombone and the first four letters of my maiden name is babe (plus you don't find to many female bass trombone players around ;-) )
    I played Bass Trombone... wasnt a fan, I also played bass tuba and i LOVED it!

    Wasn't a fan! J/K It isn't for everyone. Especially if you aren't playing in fun groups like big band or something, just concert band with whole notes. Tuba is fun, but I have to think while I play it. Darn Valves ;-) But on the plus side, I still play my bass bone and it burns a lot of calories :happy:

    T'was many moons ago, at the "Cozy Inn", a bar near Little Creek Amphibous Naval Station in Norfolk VA. I was a cute young sailor - she was,,, not. Time is kind to some of us, but it had not been kind to her.

    I was first repulsed, then intoxicated, then intrigued. As the draft PBR flowed, I became more interested. Fortunately (or unfortunately, who knows? The heart wants what it wants),,, fortunately a cadre of my naval compatriots carried me to the bed of a nearby pickup truck and hauled my inebriated butt back to the ship - effectively cancelling my night with Wendy.

    Wendy Witch,,,

    Yours?


    LMAO! Casper thats hilarious!

    I used to call an old coworker of mine "Daniella" as a joke (his name was Dan, he dressed better than most girls I knew, so I said secretly he was a girl and called him Daniella) to "get back at me" he started calling me "Nikiki" which I had no problem with and started using for my screen names :)

    this has been my screen name for eight, maybe nine, years. it first started as a plea when my son was diagnoised with asperger's syndrome - please God, bless our home, our family, our life. now i use it to remind myself to be the blessing in our home - please God, help me to bless our home, our family, our friends. :)

    My boyfriends best friend, Dan came up with mine, cos I speak in quite a posh way (my grandparents are a little posh), he joked one evening when we were all having a few drinks and called me Lady C (my name is Clara). It has stuck ever since. :) It's not as pretentious as it sounds! Haha, just a bit of fun. :)

    I absolutely LOVE Edgar Allan Poe. One of his most famous poems is The Raven. Thus the E. Poe for Edgar Allan Poe plus Raven for the poem equals epoeraven.

    The best part of my name is that someone else on here is "poeraven" for the exact same reason!!!! Great minds think alike!!! :bigsmile:

    There are some epic screen names here,,, my faves:

    "Panic at the buffet"and "Will pillage your village for food"

    I also really like BrendaLee (The gal and the name). But I always wind up with some damn catchy tune stuck in me head. "Put another nickel in - in the Nickel-O-deon,,,,,, "Boppin' around, the christmas tree..." :bigsmile:

    I'm thinking of changing mine to my pornstar name,,, Wayne Shields. :glasses:

    Created mine in 1998 when we first got a home computer to use the internet, all the talk then was about the coming Y2K disaster!!

    So I spun off that, having two daugthers - I'm m2k (mom 2 kids) and jenn short for my name Jennifer. I use it everywhere.


    Screen names are fun - I love the ones with creative stories - or inspirations behind them.

    DH's first pinball machine was Pinbot. He started calling me his pinbotchick as we played. He still calls me that 10 years later.

    Porn star name = your dogs name + the street you grew up on. :tongue: I don't remember where I heard that, but it always creates some good laughs when people start sharing their names. :laugh:
