I am now officially registered as Pluto Spice at the Spice Girl name webpage.

One of our (relatively) new posters has a website that includes this useful page -- no, she's not an actual fan, her tongue is planted firmly in her cheek -- and she has responded to my e-mail pleading for recognition by granting my request.

I won't tell you who it is, since she might not appreciate a flood of e-mails from all you lemmings out there (and she's probably wondering right now who this pluto guy is and why did she ever put her homepage in her profile) but I'm sure she'll open this thread and she can identify herself if she wants to.

Just think of the possibilities, though:

Ukulele Spice
Cowgod Spice
Uncle Spice, or Beer Spice, your pick.
CatRandom Spice
Zette Spice
and, God forbid, Satan Spice!

Well BurnMeUp Spice doesn't sound so good.

Now Sailor Scout Burn... that has class!

Bunny Spice. Maybe that's something you put on rabbits before you cook 'em!

Catrandom Spice! I rather like the sound of that, though perhaps it should be three words: Cat Random Spice.

Considering the originals, wouldn't Satan Spice be sort of redundant?

What in the wide wide world of blazin' saddles would you want a spice name for?

Just call me terrified and I'll be ignoring pluto spice until I shit nickles spice.

My friend's teenage daughter is painfully shy. She owns a pair of those thick-soled Spice Girlish sneakers.

I suggested we call her Fraidy Spice.

Would Wozzie Spice be too stupid? How about My roommate's Italian, would that make him Pizza Spice? Oh, I could go on for days, but sadly, I'm not funny.

"Chef Spice" sounds like the host of a cooking show.

I like "Cajun Spice" better, even though I'm cajun only in spirit...as the commercial says, the only delta I was ever in was a fraternity house.

Alright, I'll admit it, the Spice Name chick is myself. It started at 3:00 in the morning sitting in some friend's apartment, bored. I posed the question: "If I were a Spice Girl, which Spice Girl would I be?" My "friend", without missing a beat, cried "BITTER SPICE!" which became my screen name for about 2 years, and is still my public one.

Anyone (not just the newly ordained Pluto Spice) who wants a name may have one. The rules are A.) you must think of it yourself. (I've gotten e-mails saying "oooh, I want one. Think of one for me." screw 'em.) B.) It must amuse you. Amusing anyone else is optional. Here's the link: http://members.aol.com/bitterspce/spice.html

Judge not my HTML skills. Moved away from a great computer, which was complete with PageMaker and PhotoShop. ::sigh::
