Now it's just my full name
before I was MaxiGHB
Maxi because I was the Max. and GHB from my initials Georges-Henri Bogaert
I used that one when I registered in 2003
Probably a good change, GHB is also known as the date rape drug.
blech -- don't remind me how stupid mine is. When we moved from Minnesota to Virginia 14 years ago, I had to come up with a new email. I thought it was fun to put vawendy for Virginia Wendy for email.
When I signed up on DPC, I didn't realize that it would show up all over the place. I thought it was just a login that you never really saw again.
And now I'm stuck with it, because I could never think of anything amusing/fun/etc.
However, one person did say they thought the va was for vavavavooommm! I like that. :)

Mark was already taken so I thought about MarkA but I didn't want people to think I was Canadian so I went with MarkB. Or perhaps B is my last initial.
Mine came from my involvement with BACA (see www.bacaworld.org if ya like). One of my brothers saw my signature one one of our kid's bags (big swooping D and nothing else) and said, "What's that? Your name's PRETZEL? And you can't even spell it, huh? Just draw a picture?" We all laughed, but later that same day, I squatted my 6'4" 270lb down to get on eye level with one of the youngsters and he said, "Yup, just like a Pretzel... I like your name, Pretzel!"

Whereas the truth is that fullness of soul can sometimes overflow in utter vapidity of language, for none of us can ever express the exact measure of his needs or his thoughts or his sorrows; and human speech is like a cracked kettle on which we tap crude rhythms for bears to dance to, while we long to make music that will melt the stars.
I've used this "handle" since the stone age of the internet, back to the mid-80's at least. Never had another one, except that I started with "music_for_the_bears", which proved annoyingly cumbersome keyboard in.
Mine is an ironic name, combining the legal profession with blindness, which would make it tough to be a photographer without sight, or at very least, a reason for crappy submissions.
Shortened version of my nickname that I've had since college. We made up nicknames for each other in the dorm. For some reason that I don't recall I became Cricket. It stuck. There were several Crickets registered here when I joined so crik became my DPC name.
