So I need a change…or do I? My current email is karp2381@blah blah blah. But I can’t decide wether or not to keep it like this. My first name is Ryan, but my new gmail account needs 6 or more charecters. What do I do? Keep the Karp2381, or create something new? I need some serious help with this issue.
(The 2381 is my b-day, and it was and still is my original AOL IM name from the Mid 90’s, but I think a fresh face might be good on my new “permanant email”)
Ryan
Is yesterdog taken? That would be a cool email address, way better than karp2381. Karp2381 sucks donkey balls.
I should have added I want a sense of professionalism in there. I’d hate to have to put yesterdog@gmail.com in a resume.
Here is the million dollar question:
What is (a) yesterdog?
Man, the whole joy of having a gmail beta account is that you can get an account name without a bunch of appended numbers.
Use your name, if you want a “professional” looking free e-mail account.
Using “Karp” for a faux surname: (I guess)
ryankarp@gmail.com
ryan_k@gmail.com
That’s what you want, fella.
“Yesterdog” makes me think of summers gone by. (dog/day)
Isn’t it the line that comes before “All my troubles seemed so farawog”?
Ahg, I caved. I settled with karp2381@gmail.com
I figured I’ve been using that forever (litterally 10 + years running) so it would be the easiest. Still a bit proff, but at the same time, has a sense of internet anonymity (sp?)
But, no one has even came close to what is (a) yesterdog? One hint: American Pie
The numbers have meaning…hence original dilema.
Just think of the trouble I’m going to have naming my kid(s).
I still have no idea, but every time I see '“yesterdog” I start humming that Stevie Wonder song (“yesterme, yesteryou, yesterday”)… 
Woops, did I mean karp2381? I meant ryankarp. ADD cometh…
