4. Not really.
What would you choose instead, Jitterbug?

I could never think of anything else that I liked, even when we had the opportunity to change.

5. Nah
I've had to change it twice after losing passwords - which Skinner and the other mods never sent to me despite repeated requests to do so. Check my sigline for past madness.

7. No.
My first incarnation was Kennethken, which I changed to add a space = Kenneth ken. Then I left for a while.

I didn't know if I could have that name back when I came back, so I opted for this one, which I like because it's pretty generic.

You ought not regret yours, because I know you as "an original DUer" as opposed to all those random names who came after I signed up the first time.

:hug:

18. a little
First time I ever made one up. I couldn't think of anything clever or cute. Now I think it sounds like something a troll would make up to sound like a democrat.

Parangaricutirimicuaro.

(Edited for spelling)

See? That's why I didn't choose it.

Pronouncing it is even harder. :evilgrin:

28. Sometimes
I chose my name because of all the jingoist Republicans acting like they were the ones to save us from the terrorists ( even though just about all Shrub's 'brain-trust' were chicken-hawks).

35. Yes - didn't think much
about it. I was in a rush and just used an name I had used on something else. It just doesn't mean much - especially for a political board.

36. Yep, I'm probably on every Paul McCartney-hater's ignore list
simply because I was glancing down at a CD at the time I choose it. Not that I'm ashamed of Sir Paul, according to every report he killed in Cincinnati last Thursday night and Youtube has the vids to prove it. BTW, Jitterbug, I love your username.
