    mine is the first part of my e-mail address--which I put in the "username" blank by mistake when signing up. I've just never bothered to change it. I supposed I should....
    My username was SUPPOSED to be BunkeyB which is the name of my Grandmother's amazing parakeet which used to say "hello, my name is Bunkey Bartholomew" among other things.

    Oooo...how do you change it?? Do I have to get a new account?
    See, I saw "User name" and thought...Hmmmm My name is Regina. I'll enter that! D'oh! No alter ego on line here. Sigh. If I did...it would be "7rider" which is the bike I ride (a Seven) and my usermame in other bike (and photo) fora.

    Florence Alabama or Florence Kentucky?

    I can remember that Silver was intrigued by triskeliongirl's name but totally missing it thinking it was tris-ka-lion...but it's really quite technical...tris-kelion.

    Silver hasn't responded, so I'll chime in...She makes Silver Jewelry.

    Mr. Silver...hmmm, just trying to make it sure I'm not prowling for dates by hanging out here...

    Mine is kinda obvious and boring, but that's okay.... It's descriptive enough and at least doesn't include my last name, in case any stalkers are having a look here.

    Mimi, I love your new avi too -- very beautiful!

    mine was because i couldn't come up with anything interesting and i signed up here very shortly after my sister and b-i-l rode in the livestrong challenge. our team name can be seen on the sketch of our jerseys in another thread.

    hence my rather boring name. but then again, i've never been very creative at board names, why change now.

    Never thought of this before... but are you related to Kayleen from Bellingham? (Kileen, Kailein, gawd, how does one spell it...)

    Probably not. My husband and I are from Indiana originally. There are a lot of Laura Elmores out there (and Brians too) and it seems like someone's always looking for a "lost" Laura E where ever I go.

    trinena - tri because i fell for triathlon tho' i've only done one but definitely plan for more. and ya that whole play on tri and try. nena because it's a term of an endearment/affection in spanish derived from girl/daughter (niƱa) used in families and with significant others. i like the blending of the two qualities.

    SheFly - I like to think that I can go faster than I can . This name came to me out of the blue one day, and I've been using it since. On other forums, I'm known as MrsCouch - DH is CouchingTiger (aka Couch). The funny thing is that he hardly sits still...

    I'm orginally from the South, and most Southerners say "aunt" as aint--at least in my part of the South. I had a great, great aunt who was called Aint Doody. I can't even remember her real name now. There was a story about a cousin saying, "Oh, Aint Doody, I luv you!" So when I got my Pilot in 2005, all I could think of was, "Oh, Aint Doody, I luv you!" The bike became Aint Doody, but I shortened it to Doody, and I became Aint Doody.

    Later when I looked at it, I thought--Hmmmm, this could be translated into meaning "not sh.."

    Mine is from that story about the person walking down the beach, throwing stranded starfish back into the ocean. Someone asks them why they are bothering...how could it matter, when there are so many starfish stretching down the beach to the horizon. The person replies...it matters to this one.

    Mine is from my favorite city in the world (so far) - Florence. I like to pretend I'm Italian. In reality I'm a blonde, very very pale Heinz 57, not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. And 11 for my lucky number. Born on the 11th day of the 11th month in '83 and 8+3=11.

    It is nice to learn what they mean from you all.

    OMG! I just added up my birthdate and it adds up to 11, too!

    I was born on the 11th day of the FIRST month. 1-11-62.

    How weird.

    re my screenname...

    I've been using the same name since 1994 or 1995? My first AOL address--back in those days, you could only have 10 characters, thus, no E. Tuckervill is my little fiefdom, here, wherever I hang my hat. I can't imagine ever changing it, really.

    I was Tuckervill before Tanya Tucker, I can tell ya that!
