Thanks for the heads up, oldlady. While you are indeed a lady in your postings, I kinda read the saline content between the lines. :lol:

Like most others, a play on my name. It's Barry and my nickname is Bear. (BTW, the original Gaelic version is Bearrach which is pronounced the same as u-no-hu, which is why, I guess, he went by "Barry" in school.)



All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.

The Baja part is simple. Wouldn't be here if I didn't love the place. As with some others, my actual name, Howard, was already taken. Over the years, there have been times when folk, sometimes playfully; sometimes not so much, would refer to me as Howodd or Howeird. I flipped a coin.

Well, my name is actually Paulina, but that was already taken, and I wasn't reading a good book at the time like Kate was so I didn't come up with a creative name like Morgaine, which is lovely by the way...

Actually, I've been Paula since I was a freshman in high school. I found it traumatic to introduce myself just once a year in grade school, having everyone making a puzzled face and saying huh... what kind of name is THAT? So I shortened it to make myself seem more "normal", and avoiding 7 difficult introductions on the first day of school, moving from class to class.

So here's to ya, Paulina, you're a more fearless woman than I am :lol:! It's a beautiful name, and sometimes I wish it were still mine.

Dennis- Funny thing is that my father was also Howard. I became junior. My mother absolutely hated it when anyone called me Howie. Never bothered me, however.

It's very convenient having a name that works in Spanish and in English. I can remember to answer to it any way you say it:dudette:

First name Dan. Referred to as DanO by colleagues who want me to "book 'em." I have no idea what the hell they're talking about.
