    shortened version of my first name, fave color, and shorted version of my middle name. and the number 2 just because it's a second account here and I am not creative.

    I had kidney cancer and so now I only have one kidney bean left in me. :)

    That's a really cute username, I think the meaning behind it is interesting.

    Picked up the nickname Ox in college because I had and uncanny, and unfortunate, resemblance to John Candy. The rest is just an abbreviation of my last name. I have also had people say that I remind them of John Candy in "Uncle Buck"......Eventually I realized that I looked a little too much like John Candy and realized I needed to change things which is why I am here....

    I looked in the mirror, said "Dagnabbit! You did it again." and it just came to me. Like a vision or epiphany or something.

    My name is YiFang(一芳), in Chinese, when you call someone you are close to or just being sweet, you repeat the same word ( just like in English, you add "y" at the end) people call me FangFang(芳芳). However, the real pronunciation of "芳" is more like " Fung" then "Fang" so I figure I can have some fun putting these two words together....

    PICCOLO is actually my fav, but I figured not a lot of people would get "Makankosappo" so stuck with this one. Maybe I'll change it one day :]

    It's sort of a half joke. The joke is that I have/had the "yellow lemon ed (eating disorder)" Where I just -have- to eat that lemon because it's so yellow, or I have to eat that donut because the glazing is perfectly symmetrical. lol

    I was turning Fifty shortly and my goal was to be Fabulous at 50 so had to play with it until I found something that wasn't already taken. Hate it BTW and can't change it :tongue:

    It looks like you can change it once.
