  • I'm a movie buff, especially classic monster movies! While I love Boris Karloff, my favorite Frankenstein monster was played by Glenn Strange (who later went on to play Sam the bartender on Gunsmoke). I simply mixed Strange and Frankenstein.

    I am the youngest girl out of 6 siblings, thus the princess. PB is a joke, my dad used to call all us kids 'mutts' and I decided I was a 'purebred'. Thus the pb.

    My nickname is Pookey and "ism" means a belief or creed, doctrine, or art of being - hence Pookeyism - the art of being me!

  • I live in one city, work in another and my husband works in a third city. "Home again Home again jiggity jig" is a children's rhyme that we can relate to -- we're always driving somewhere. I carpool to work; I carpool my kids & their friends to karate, chorus, destination imagination team and so on... So that's the "Jiggy" part. Gibby is a nickname from our last name. Hence, jiggy_gibby.

    When I was little, my uncle used to call me Katie (my first name) Fox (the ending part of my last name) = Katie Fox! When I was in high school it was "cool" to have a tag name (though I was too chicken to write it on anything but my own notebooks, lol) so I took that childhood nickname and tried to make it look hip. Katie became K+80 (eighty) = K80 or "Keighty" and I just added the fox on to make one word = K80fox! Though now my family likes to poke fun at me and call me Kate Oh Fox instead, lol.

    This is a fun topic! Thanks for sharing everyone!
