years ago, a friend who is a guitarist got a blood clot in his hand which caused it to blow up like a balloon. when he showed me his inflated hand, i couldn't resist accusing him of buying that cream that's supposed to make your penis larger...

:cool:




for my username: my real name is tom, and when i started in my company 24 years ago, my supervisor needed to have a dozen huge, platter type disk drives moved from one end of our building to the other. these drives were gigantic and heavy; roughly the size of a clothes washer and dryer back to back, weighing hundreds of pounds.

since i was the rookie, he told the older guys to get the "young buck" to do it, so after getting them all moved by myself the nickname bucky stuck.

later, a korean coworker was confused as to whether my name was bucky or tom, so he just called me buckytom. most people at work call me that, but my family and friends still call me tommy.
 
Bolas De Fraile or Monks Balls was given to me by an Argentinian student many yrs ago in Spain when we were running from Franco's police after the students uprising in Madrid.I was not a student but scousers hate Fascism and love a good ruck.:)
In Argentina they are known as Suspiro De Monja but anarchists call them Bolas De Fraile


The Catalan people who I was with are like scousers, they hated Franco and Bull Fighting

@ Bolas: Catalonia Banned Bullfighting in Late 2010

@ Bolas,

Firstly, thanks so much for your post ... Very entertaining, interesting and :ROFLMAO: in good humor.

Secondly, I wanted to tell you that the autonomous Government, The Generalit ( President ) of the 4 Catalan Provinces: Barcelona, Girona, Tarragona and Lèrida banned Bullfighting in late 2010 under the former socialist Prime Minister José Luis Rodriguez Zapatero. GOOD !

Thanks again for your wonderful post. :)
Margi. :chef:
 
Margi how much crap really hit the fan in Spain when HRH King One Careless Bas**** got caught for paying 10,000 euro a day to shoot Elephants in Africa and is it true his wife was the plant pot. at one of Saliva Berlesque Bunga Bunga parties.:ohmy:
 
My family (wife and kids) all have the same initials. E.M. We were 3me on another forum and then 4me when my son was born. 4me has usually been taken by other users on alot of sites so it morphed into 4meandthem.
 
didi is one of my nicknames. That particular username was used, so I added the initials of my surname. In hindsight I could have been a bit more "creative" with a username, but hey ho.
 
Let me clear something up before I start. No, it doesn't NOT come from twilight, and I've had variations of this username for years before twilight came out! On another forum i'm on, I often get asked trivia questions on the movie, sort of like an open invitation.. granted, it makes me giggle and I try to answer them, people are very misled!

Now.

I need to explain my email, first.

My email is Canadianbella99. I'm Canadian (who would have thought lol) and I love the name bella, ever since I heard my friend as a child, get called Bella (short for Isabella) I just like the ring to it. I am not full of myself, and I didn't put it there because I think i'm purty, I just like the name. 99 for no reason at all, I don't even know why I put them there.

When I make usernames, I either use Canadianbella or Bella. Bella was taken here, so I used the Bella99 so as I couldn't be found from the other forums I go on (where I mainly use Canadianbella)

I hardly have a memory, so I picked something i'd remember (like 1/2 my email, which I use daily) rather then something food-y. Plus, I have a horrible imagination, my username would probably be something like "Feta"

Phew, still following?
 
In Italian BELLA ( Prounced Bell La ) means Beautiful and in Spanish it is pronounced Bei Yah, and signifies beautiful too ...

Isabel or Isabella, was a very quintessential Queen in the late 1400s and 1500s ... She financed Christopher Colombus´ Navigation to El Salvador, Cuba, The Dominican Republic and Puerto Rico ...

Thus, beautiful queen !

Have nice evening ...

Ciao,
Margaux.

Very interesting replies.:)

I could never make gravy. I thought Bisto was gravy. We have a famous cook over here called Delia Smith, and on her website you could have a live chat with Delia and ask questions. I asked her how to make gravy. She answered me and I followed her method. It worked like a dream. I truly am the Queen of Gravy. And modest. My kids love my roast dinners with proper gravy, there is nothing like it.:yum:
 
matg, did you happened to keep my e-mail where I describe the origin of my "handle" if yes, please re-post here. I know we had thread like this long time ago, but we also have a lot of new people here.

Years ago, when I got my 1st computer and Internet connection (good old dial-up), I wanted to learn more about the Internet so joined my ISP's chat forum. When prompted for a username (I hate having to think fast) I chose "Nobody"(it struck me as funny at the time) someone else apparently thought it was clever as well and it was already taken, so I thought well if I can't be "nobody" then I will be "somebody". Well of course there are plenty of somebodies, and this name was not available to me. Frustration was setting in by this time and I was getting anxious to start my online adventure, I changed "body" to "bunny" and that is who I have been ever since. I use this as a username for just about everything.
