9. Even MORE intriguing
Thanks for the link. And do you work with stone? Whatever kind of craftsman, I am envious. You are very lucky.

28. I wish it were cool like that
hehe

In Jr. High my friends and I were interested in paganism and rituals and we all gave ourselves ritual names. Later on when I wasn't interested so much anymore I used it in role play chat rooms. I used it on all my message boards, too. I'm still attached to it. :D

I found out through googling my screen name that there are porn stars named 'Ariana' and 'Celeste', so if I want to google and see what comes up from *me* I have to do a safe search. :7

26. It's in Quahog
and damn you for getting that song stuck in my head. I haven't seen The Music Man since I was a kid but it was my sister's favorite movie so I saw it dozens of times.

Gary, Indiana, Gary Indiana, Gary, Indiana,
Let me say it once again.
Gary, Indiana, Gary, Indiana, Gary, Indiana,
That's the town that "knew me when."

If you'd like to have a logical explanation
How I happened on this elegant syncopation,
I will say without a moment of hesitation
There is just one place
That can light my face.
Gary, Indiana,
Gary Indiana,

Not Louisiana, Paris, France, New York, or Rome,
but Gary, Indiana,
Gary, Indiana,
Gary Indiana,
My home sweet home.

23. Nope
When you're first coming up with a name, however you spell it makes it right. It's your name, your spelling, you're right.

Period.

Y'know — Peter Greeder, the meter reader.
