    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.
    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.

    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.."
    Tis better to wear out than to rust out....

    That's TOTALLY what I thought it meant! I always took it as an expression of humility. Honestly!

    I figured the aint was aunt, but thought doody was some form of her name.
    I had an aunt, Josephine, who's name my eldest cousin could not say when he was a child. He tried to say "Jo Jo", but it came out "Dodo". So she was always Aunt Dodo to all of us. She wasn't a flightless bird, certainly not an idiot. So...Dodo...Doody. Whatever!
