D’uh. Sigh. I am turning in my “Monty Python Fan Club” card and abashedly submit myself to the torments of the Comfy Chair.

Another “Morrigan” is **Morrigan Aesland** forthe “Night Warriors” videogame, manga & anime. She’s a green-haired, bat-winged subccubi, with a low cut top & nifty funbags.  
So…that sound like you? 😉

As for pairing _my_ name…\<sigh\>.

Loneliness is the price for rugged individualism.

The Morrigan was also the Crone aspect of the tri-part goddess of the ancient Celts (maiden, mother, and crone). So, Morrigan (crone) and Cranky(asan)OldMan.

Ethilrist–ugh! I really think I like the description by Bosda Di’Chi of Tricor better. (Can I call you Bosda for short?)

Who wants to be a crone?

Winner of the **Golden Shovel** award, October 2001.

The prestigious **Golden Shovel** award is given to the Doper who most gracelessly digs him or herself into a hole.

Congratulations, **Ethilrist**!

oops! I think this thread has been hijacked, sorry.  
(Imagine that! I swear it’s the spitting image of me. I’m thinking my rights may have been infringed upon. Of course, that’s my work outfit, you should see what I wear for special occasions.)

I’ll shut up now. Back to the name game.

Well, why don’t you come over to my place, change out of those nasty old work clothes into something more comfortable, & we’ll get to know one another. 😉
