You can be all things to some people some of the time and some things to all people all of the time but you ..... dang it! Now I've confused myself. I'll be back later.

(walks away mumbling...you can be all things...no, you can be some....)

**BENESSE** · 12-12-2010, 10:16 PM

R, you're making my hair hurt!

**crashdive123** · 12-12-2010, 10:31 PM

Does it hurt all of the time, or just some of the time?

**BENESSE** · 12-12-2010, 10:31 PM

Just when I log in.

**crashdive123** · 12-12-2010, 10:35 PM

That 'splains a lot.

**klkak** · 12-12-2010, 10:38 PM

Y'all are the Borg aren't you? And you're not going to stop until you assimilate me!

You may take me eventually but it's going to cost you dearly.

**BENESSE** · 12-12-2010, 10:42 PM

Yes, yes, and no.

(assuming you're talking to me)

**FVR** · 12-12-2010, 10:50 PM

FVR is my initials. I could have gone with FR but that includes many FR's including FJR who is my begatter.

So I alienate myself with the V, and you get FVR.

I've had my share of nicknames, none that I would post.

Oh boy I could get in trouble explaining my name but here goes. Of course my dad wanted a son but he got me a gril. But he raised me as if I was his son and did all the things that sons would have done on the farm and he always taught me to be independent and stand up for my self. If you ask my DH he will tell you I as independent as a hog on ice. One of my husband neighbor on his dad s farm saw me staking hay on a wagon six tiers high and he asked him who that was in the hayfiel on the wagon and my husband said that was my wife. The neighbors reply was I guess you say yes maam to her and he replied sure do. So everyone says I was bornthatway to be my father s son.

When you're bored you look for...
When you're scared you try to find...
When you're alone..
When you need a friend to share with..

It's kinda just who I am, a personification of myself. Always helpful and honest. For most of my friends, I'm the guy they know they can count on for just about anything.
It's also a lyric to a song I'm fond of where "the sun beats down"...being a roofer..

The song also reflects a lot of my personality.

Maybe I've said too much lol. Now it's not just the name that's wierd lol.
"Captain, the ship is sinking! Have Mercy!"

Mine is my phone number without the area code.

**canid** · 12-13-2010, 07:03 AM

i go by canid (sometimes canidsong) out of respect for the canidae; the taxanomic family which comprises the canines (dogs) and vulpines (foxes), though of course people often think it's supposed to be candid, or can I.D. which is probably just cheap flattery of my humble skills

**Winnie** · 12-13-2010, 07:56 AM

I did have a different name originally, but Sarge gave me this name and before I knew it everyone was using it. You'll have to ask Sarge why.

**Old GI** · 12-13-2010, 10:59 AM

Sarge47: '47? You are old (one year older then me).

My name is one I use elsewhere when available; as a result of a rather lackluster career in the Army. retiring in '92 after just short of 22 years active.

Wait, wait, wait......I thought y'all said that it meant "he who lays under 4 wheeler".

**ClovisMan** · 12-13-2010, 12:03 PM

Most people think that my screename means that I am a man from Clovis, NM. In actuality I picked this name after the Clovis people that are thought to be the first hominids to really colonize in North America. I was digging around on the banks of the Devil's river on one of my kayaking adventures and found a knapped stone. I thought it was one of your basic arrowheads, but it was exceptionally large. After researching the net I found that it is the basic size and shape of the tools that the Clovis people used. It may or may not be an actual clovis point, but I like to think it is. That's how I picked my screename.
