Default I figured out a way to get picked on for life!

Go to www.sailormoon.com and sign up.

They give you an email address with the ending "@sailormoon.com"

I'm Sailor_Boo.

Funny stuff!

*expects an onslaught of razzing from BigDon*

I'm making one for Dad, too.

Sweetheart, I distinctly remember when you were 6 you wanted to be called Pocahountas. Then, after that, you wanted to be the "Pink Power Ranger"...

Back in SWG I had a group of players who used armor and uniforms of the Rebel Alliance SpecForce Marines. Except one woman, a twentysomething out of Washington state, who's toon had all the right armor, just done in bright pink and white.

Took me all of a minute to dub her "Rebel Marine Barbie". Stuck like glue, even after the group dispersed.

Oh hey everbody! On a seriously cool note Boo had an acting audition with a talent scout that went really well. Boo and I practiced her script for hours the night before, only to have it change minutes before showtime. (Went from a monologue from Badgirls to a Levi's jacket commercial, oh well)

Though I had to keep dodging daggers being flung from the eyes of this Russian woman who was glaring at this very rude Mexican woman sitting behind me who kept talking through other peoples singing auditions. They louder they would sing, the louder she would talk. I was flabbergasted myself.

Funny stuff! Reminds me that I need to do something silly to get a new nickname, because a friend of ours has a cat named "Boo Boo."

I am NOT going to have the same nickname as one of that guys pets!

Honey, you were stuck with that name at birth. Ain't gonna wear off because of a cat. You had just come out of your mother and the OB/GYN nurse picked you up by your hind legs like they do and you didn't squall like most wee ones, you got this really offended look on your face like someone who is awakened from a sound sleep by a glass of water to the face and the nurse said, "Awww what's a matter Boo Boo Bear?" And you've been Boo ever since. I was there, I saw the whole thing.

Now don't scare her away. This is probably as close to a sitcom as this forum's ever had, don't bust up a good thing while its getting traction.

Of what?

Myself, I believe its very bad juju to have your image on the internet. It can take your soul and not give it back. Folks over at Fishindex.com have been asking me for my pictures for years now. I usually post pictures of Don Knotts from the Incredible Mr. Limpet when they start really pestering me about it. Boo Child didn't consult me prior to posting her own likeness as her avatar. I would have naysayed it. But what's done is done.

Better than anything on prime time this decade, and that's the truth.

A few months ago, my mother found an artifact of my youth, and sent it to me. (I've got it stashed somewhere.)

It was a modified magician's cape, sized for a four-year old, which I first used a certain halloween in '77 or '78. It was flipped inside-out (the inside was white, the outside black) and re-hemmed so I could pretend to be the leader of the Gatchamen (known in this hemisphere as the G-Force from Battle of the Planets.)

Nice of her to turn over the blackmail material. (Though it's not like she doesn't have plenty more where that came from.)

She was bald, covered with goop, and had eyes so blue even the whites were blue and they stayed that way until her early teens. She had a habit of pinching me with her toes when we had her in bed with us. Much more so than her big sister. Always nailed me in the love handle fat. It was like trying to sleep with a king crab in the bed. All kids do that prior to differentiating between the use of hands and feet. To a small baby they are both just "limbs".
