Cool!!!!!! Me too LOL.

What are some of your favourites??

Mine are (Besides the one I have on my tag) -

I love to go down to the schoolyard and watch all the little children jump up and down and run around yelling and screaming. They don't know I'm only using blanks.

Probably ... the toughest time ... in anyone's life ... is when you have to murder a loved one because they're the devil.

When I wake up in the morning, I just can't get started until I've had that first, piping hot pot of coffee. Oh, I've tried other enemas...

I love all of them really LOL.

My name isn't the most creative, just my first middle and last initials.

Most of my aliases are created by typing out long phrases in qwerty while in dvorak (another keyboard layout), thus messing it up fairly well, then I lift a small section and condense it and add letters to make a name.

Torrere is something of a made up verb that means 'a deluge of fire'. I created it while perusing the dictionary and combining meanings.

btw, juju - wow.

I'd like to add the origin of my user title, since no one ever asked me. :)

It's from a scene in the movie The Princess Bride, where Inigo Montoya asks the Dread Pirate Roberts, "Who are you?" -- to which he replies, "No one of consequence".

Well, *I* don't know any chicks named Juju. But anyway, the answer to your question is already in this thread. :)

My usual handle is Starship Trooper, but it is so incredibly popular these days (as is the short from I use, Trooper...even more popular than ST, as a matter of fact) that I decided to use Elspode. This derives from a name which my friends and I used to call each other in junior high school, Spode, which is itself a brand name of fine porcelain dinnerware. I added the "El" part, because, wouldn't you know it, Spode is also a widely taken name in these days of the Internet.

I really wish I'd been more diligent in using Starship Trooper during the early days of the Internet when you could still get a decent username with relative ease...it was my CB handle as far back as 1975!

Any ole name....

Just to throw my 'history' into the fracas -

I've gone by many names online, this one being the longest lived and most generally accepted. (It actually sounds like a real name you know)

Anywayyyy this particular name comes from a novel by Ayn Rand - Atlas Shrugged - The character's name was Dagny Taggart, and well, after reading the book a few times ( I think i'm working on 10 times) I realized I identified with the character. A minor spelling tweak so folks could pronounce it, and I was off and running.

Not so hard, now is it

Oops. Sorry Jujunaxidiouslyinixdelexbealidoshus. I missed your previous post.

I know 2 girls/women named Julie or "Juju" (Jew-jew).

So, in order to keep from getting them confused, do you refer to them as Jujuay and Jujubee? <ducking the inevitable shower of tossed unwanted little black licorice flavored gummy candies)

One Juju sets off the radar that I need to "run...Juju is coming this way".

And the other is pleasant. I never confuse them.



Thanks, now I have to leave the cave in search of Juju fruits.

and don't forget "jujuvision" which is the sniglet for attempting to identify the flavor of the JujuFruit by holding them up to the screen during brightly lit scenes of the movie in an attempt to avoid the black licorice ones ...

Perhaps I'm just more in touch with my feminine side? I do have long hair, after all. :)
