I'm conflicted on this name change thing...
this is the ONLY place on the internet where I'm VelmaD instead of DarthVelma. Of anyone has any input on whether it would make a rat's ass of difference if I changed it...feel free.

3. I caved.
I was satellitesister. There was a reason I was such. But, people kept assuming it had something to do with The Satellite Sisters. It didn't. Not even remotely.

So, here I am again. Hello world, I am The Dogfish.

There's a reason for this, too, but it's so silly I think I'll keep it to myself.

5. I changed
My old one was outdated, and anyone who has known me in the last several years can attest to it.

8. I briefly thought about changing mine to "7thGenDemocrat"
Which would probably be more accurate.
I can PROVE that my great-great-grandfather voted Democratic -- but I believe, based on what anecdotal evidence I can find, that his grandfather (my G4-grandpa) probably voted for Andrew Jackson, as the two were practically neighbors at one time in a part of the world where proto-Repubs were damned rare.
Anyhow, my screen name may technically be inaccurate, but I think I've grown comfortable with it. So I'll probably keep it.
John
Comments encouraged.

15. Hmmmm
Edited on Mon Nov-08-04 06:17 PM by redqueen
I guess I'm pretty anal about these things, so for consistency's sake I'd say change it to match the others.

16. I think you should change it to DEEVEE ENT.
It would require a few years of medical school to get your otolarygnology credentials to be able to call yerself that legitimately, but well worth it, I should think.

19. I kinda feel that way myself, but...
I met some of my best friends and people I care about as "VelmaD" and a part of me just doesn't want to change. :shrug:
