05 Oct 99 - 04:45 PM (#121018) Subject: Nick-name amnesty From: Rick Fielding Sorry to start something so inane, but I've just spent half an hour talking about music theory on the "three chord" thread, and I need something that takes less concentration. A number of years ago the U.S. Government declared an "amnesty" for draft evaders. "Come home, come home they cried" and the next day half my friends were scrambling to the border to reclaim their passports. My suspicion was that Jimmie Carter thought all the expatriot war protesters had served the equivalent of a jail sentence by living in Canada and surviving a few winters. Well after reading "Little Neophyte's" heartrending plea to get a "Bigger" nick name, I thought this might serve as the time and place for anyone else desiring a change. By the way Little Neophyte, you may be new to folk, but you're not new to expressing yourself well. I'm glad you're here. Duckboots' sister started as "duckboots' sister", then went to "knock-knee'd one" and then (thank God) to "McKnees" which is much easier to spell. So it can easily be done folks. Any takers? Rick (I'm thinking about it) |

I'm going back to my usual name, now that I've seen that this experiment works. -Joe Offer- (I changed my name for a moment, and it seems to affect most of the stuff I posted. I changed it back quick. Whew!) |

Joe's back to normal, I reverted back to Jeri (I was "Clamfoot" very briefly,) and I think Charlie was supposed to be Christie from Christie's. I posted in another thread as Christie from Hoboken, but now it says I'm Jeri. Oh darn. |
