Yes, please. I would like a name (other than what I’ve named myself).

Thanks, **lno**! But I’m not sure I’ll include it in my sig, since everyone knows me as _She Who Posts A Whole Lot, And We Mean A Whole Lot_. Then again… if I include this one, my sig will be full. It’s too long for a new username, so there goes THAT possibility. I could always junk the first line of my sig, seeing as I came up with that on the fly, without really thinking about how witty that would sound… yeah, I think I’ll do that. Thanks again!

I can rest when I’m dead.

**Poysyn** , 'cos though I always think of Popeye when I see her name, becomes _Devourer Of Spinach And Bonker Of Bluto_.

**Gopher** , though not a groundhog, is _Evil Nazi Garden Wrecker_.

**Lady Venom** , a fan of herpetology/ophiology and Shakespearean literature, attempted to put on _Macbeth_ using a cast of snakes. The original run sold out, and gave her the name _She Who Doesn’t Need Your Stinkin’ Approval, The Critics Love Her_.

**Kat** , our official Cat Goddess since 99Oct20, shall henceforth be known as _She Who Should Get Into More Cat Fights Because You Can’t Get Enough Hair Pulling And Face Scratching For My Money_.

**screech-owl** is _Not The Screech From Saved By The Bell, She Swears, Just Get To Know Her First_.

**Sassy** , having completed her magazine run from 1988 to 1994, sought solace in other teenage-girl-oriented products. _Yearns For Lance Bass, But Will Settle For Justin Timberlake_ she has become.

**Gravity** is _He Who Draws Folks Inexplicably Near_.

**Mullinator** had once been a killer cyborg sent from the future to the present day to enforce strict rules on mulligans on golf courses. However, his programming had gone awry and he ended up with the Shawnee. As a result, he is known as _He Whom Arnold Schwarzenegger Will Play In A Future Role_.

**scout1222** is well-known among the Iroquois for her tracking skills, and was named _Discount Version Of GPS_.

**Stiletto** is _Not As Clumsy Or Random As A Tomahawk; An Elegant Weapon For A More Civilized Age_.

**lno** I commend your choice for my tribal name. My family is from Germany! But Gerhardt ran away from the army not a sewage plant. Not bad for a shot in the dark!
