Hey, how come I have never seen anything you’ve posted before? ---

That’s an original way to announce your name change, _\__\*\*\*\*\*. I like it! ---

Not really. I don’t seem to recognize any names ever. Each person could put out one post and quit and I’d be none the wiser. ---

I don’t know. I seldom read my own posts. ---

If so, I would have to disagree. The only thing pointing to that is the email name: "The email address for Whammo is [b\_line12@hotmail.com](mailto:b_line12@hotmail.com) " Not enough proof for the SDMB, I’m afraid. ---

And the tag at the bottom where you claim to have been greeted by Cecil Adams, that reduces the number of possible suspects to 19, not including Hoo-haa. ---

I think the only poster of whose presence I was unaware before last week, and who had a lot of posts, was SingleDad because he took some time off. But I had been hearing about him and there was that thread asking about him and all that . . . ---

OK, I gotta know… Did you change the name because you ditched the gremlins and are hiding out on the outskirts of town? ---

but since the cat’s already pretty much out of the bag, **B\_Line12** started this thread: [Funny things said during love making/intimate moments…](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=24960) And he had 940 posts on Monday and he is not a searchable user anymore and **Whammo** sounds like him. And I spend too much time here. ---
