Hello to everyone!
Isn't this great??! My mysterious friend checked in and, like I had hoped, he's a great guy! And welcome back to him as well.
His name is GENE, and he lives in Portland, Oregon (which, by the way, is one beautiful place). Be assured that there are no broken fences between Gene and me. In fact, I appreciate the messaging that has occurred between us. It led to this GREAT THREAD!
As you know, this thread would not have been much if all of you had not contributed. But, let's not stop. There are many of you who have not posted anything. Can we "twist your arm" a bit  to get you to post? Hope so.
So..........WHO'S NEXT??!

ahh Gene, in a perfect world I would have to agree with you, but, then, this is not a perfect world, so the strong must survive by knowing when to delete and when to respond...I, for one, would like to thank you for being a participant in generating this thread...It has given many people here a chance to view themselves and each other with a clearer eye, don't you thinkWe all tend to get so wrapped up in what we think, we lose sight of each other and our wonderfully unique differences, as well as each others private pain...
Sorry Gene, like most "old" ladies (I think I am older than Barb D) I tend to run on...so will just say Welcome home and I hope your day is wonderful and pf...PPP

Perhaps that was the intent, but when I read the word "vanish", I took it as sarcasm in regards to "goaway"...not in a literal sense.

When I first discovered this site I signed on as Bob G.
But.....
One day I didn't hit the space bar and became BobG. Been that guy ever since.
But.......
That's not my real name.
My real name and the name I go by is Robert.
Pretty exciting huh? Can I have a yawn.

Ahhhh, a name by any other name would smell as ???? I first came on the board as NancyMcFree. My real name is NancyMcCollum but I wasn't really comfortable using my full name, and the name Nancy was already used. So since I wanted to be FREE of headaches ... NancyMcFree. Like all good newbies ... I chose to leave the board at one point. Flame, flame .. go away. But, like most newbies, I could not stay away from my family. And since I was not smart enough to know that my name could be re-instated ... I chose OneEyeBlind as my new name. It was to remind me constantly that if you close one eye to petty stuff that sometimes happens on this board ......... well, life might just be a little sweeter for it. That's my story. I've enjoyed reading all of yours.

Not much mystery to my handle...
Except that not many people know that I was named after the ORIGINAL Stan The Man --

But know you know....THE REST OF THE STORY!!
For those of you curious of my bio...
Cluster Stuff: Episodic since 1992.
Occupation: Instructional Designer for a major railroad.
Personal: Very happily married, father of 4 children

This has turned into an awesome thread! Great job Mike! ANd Welcome Gene. Well since so many have added more than just handle explanations I think I shall add a bit more than what I posted earlier.
I am a former Machinest/Daycare teacher (yeah I know could i pick 2more totally opposite professions??) . Since I became a mommy I've been a stay at home mom. I have Sammie and he is 3.5yrs old and Antoinette and she is 2 yrs old. I've been married to my hubby Sam for 5 yrs now (and NO little Sammie is NOT a junior they have diff middle names  ) and Sam and I are guardians to my 16 yr old brother Ray.
Ok who's NEXT to post a little story???

Because me's is not smart enough to fink of something creative at the time of signing in, I used my nickname as it has been since I was little.
Turts is a shortening of my surname.
Used to be called Turtle as well at school, but with age it became Turts.
Christian name as per the birth certificate is Brett.

I would have used my real name, but most people have a hard time with Paul-Baptiste Johnathan. Heck, most people have a hard time with the just the first part: Paul-Baptiste. Hirvimaki is much more compact - although unpronounceable for most Anglophones. (Pronunciation is not such a big deal in cyber-space, is it?)
Wonderful thread.

Hey Mike (Goaway),
Great idea for a thread topic. While my handle is pretty transparent (my name) I have wondered where some peoples have come from.
Woobie ... I remember that movie too & my wife has a full woobie collection around the house (she says she can never be warm enough or have too many blankets ... err woobies) Also, sorry to hear that you're feeling torn up & tattered. Get some rest, grab a real woobie, and curl up and watch some of your favorite movies ... that'll work.
Take Care
Bruce

Tiannia comes from the Online RP game that I play with my hubby since 99. If you ever enter Everquest and go to the Fennin Ro server Tiannia is a level 53 High Elf Cleric. Ironic dont you think that my alter ego is one who can heal herself and everyone around her and has spells that can make any and all efflictions "go away".
IRL (in real life) I am a 32 year old married with two wonderful kids - son 13 months and daughter 6 yrs.

Cool thread!
My handle is extremely special. I created it so that no one could ever guess where it came from. You see, my real name is... Michel but I write it... miCHel. Incredible, isn't it?
Took me several months to come up with such a clever concept... And by the way, I work in a large advertising agency where I charge clients... by the hour.

PS The name part and the job part are both true...
