Very well; so Skinner has a 'user-name amnesty thing' going on please review ~
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=389&topic_id=4833201&mesg_id=4833201

Now...my user-name: bridgit, has several refs certainly knowable to me and to others; some this & that, other yada-yada things: but bridgit is also a conferencing software that we utilize to interact with clients: http://www2.smarttech.com/st/en-US/Products/Bridgit so there's that, which was part of what prompted me to chose it initially, now, question is...

And I don't per se need recommendations unless of course it is felt I might, or do; so much as I have an interest in determining *whether* it is thought I should change my user-name vis-a-vis Skinner's 'user-name amnesty thing', capisca?

So please do. Let me know which or whether it's all good though I am claiming Ponzi Scheme first and foremost pretty mich cause DarthKitten is already chosen :( though however, and, for that matter...

Will you be changing your's? What would your's be if you were to do so? Or what should other DUer's user-names be changed to i.e. DS1 < DS2, SallyMander < GerryMander, kayakjohnny < birchbarkcanoejohnny, CreekDog < AlluvialMoonPoolDog, or Rabrrrrrr < Rabberberberberberber, matcom < mat.com, stuff like that :thumbsup:

1. My name is too Beatrix Potterish...
It doesn't fit my current attitude, situation, or mood...problem is I can't think of anything better at the moment...At least there's a few days to think about it...

5. You're making it complicated
Edited on Fri Jan-16-09 01:21 PM by Bucky
You're not required to change your name. Right now, everyone thinks you look like this.

12. Ptah, friend, can you imagine?
I posted these links http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vs9_TjIor5g http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vSifBY6AGs http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QIhdQIEI8WI as illustrations of the kinds & levels of resolve some people bring to problem solving with an eye to the pilot that dead-sticked that plane in the Hudson and was told to "fuck off" (in so many words) for trying to point out how others perform under very specific tic-tock tic-tock stressors...go figure :shrug:

cause I'm figuring go figure :headbang: cause while I am just a nobody; I flew under a solo pilot's license once upon a time, but even I had to land my little Cessna in a cornfield one night in the dark, all by my 19 year old self, when my engine terminated. The farmer came out, real sweetheart guy, and asked if I was OK...and said he knew I was in trouble but thought I did just fine so yeah I guess...

Fuck Me!! :spray: :hi:

14. I think I'm going to change to "Arugula Latte"
I typed in the incredibly dull "Oregonian" after about, oh, I don't know, three seconds of thought. I didn't expect to use it more than a couple times here. HAH! 7 1/2 years later ...

I really am the stereotypical arugula-eating, latte-drinking, tofu-snarfing liberal (although I don't have a Volvo). I feel like, hey, reclaim the "insults," you know? I love arugula, and I don't think people should apologize to rightwing assholes for drinking lattes.

15. The only thing I'm changing about mine is the capitalization
I want it to be "Oktoberain" rather than "oktoberain"

19. Howzabout "oKTobeRRRRrrrAin"
That way, you can capitalize on both the crazy capitalization subspecies of DUer and also rip off Rabrrrrrrr(however many r's he has).
