Hey SPOOFE - If you dropped the “S”, you may have to fight Coldfire off with a stick.

Hey, why do you all have to make up weird names anyway? Why not use your real name like me. DIANE. D-I-A-N-E. DIANE. See? No confusion at drunken Dopefests when trying to match up usernames to real names. Makin’ my head spin already.

Losers. 😉

I think **bibliophage** has the right idea. So, who gets “A”? Moderators should have first dibs of course, so it’s a face-off between **Arnold Winkelreid** and **Alphagene**. Alphagene is bigger, but Arnold is nastier and sneakier. Arnold takes down Alphagene and gets to stay. Now bibliophage gets to stay by default. Now…\*\*Chronos, CK Dexter Haven, \*\*or **Coldfire**? Hmmm, easy choice, obvious, I won’t even bother with naming the obvious winner.

Now…I think there could never be and “L” name as good as mine. What? **Lynn Bodoni**? Never heard of her. New member maybe?

I changed my username from **Goboy** to **Gobear** for reasons that made sense to me, and if **Lemur866** doesn’t like it, he is cordially invited to sit on my dick and spin. In fact, maybe I’ll change my username yet again to **SGobear** just to piss him off!

I am convinced they are the same person. Hey, it works for me . . . no headaches trying to remember who’s who if they’re the same person:).

[sub]Does anyone confuse me with someone else?[/sub]

I don’t get it. But, now that I think about it, that’s probably a good thing… 😃
