**Shirley** , I once was going to write a Western which I planned to call “A Fistful of Ugly.” Now you’ve made me wonder if it should be a username… 😉

Before this goes into its own thread, let me be the first to congratulate you on _that_ snazzy username! 😃

BTW, they ask that you CC: at least two or three mods for these requests, in the same email. They have lives outside of this board, believe it or not, and otherwise your request might slip through the cracks, at the very least it has a good chance of being answered faster.

Don’t forget to email from the account on your record here, and include your old username.

🙂

Ha! Like I’d wash a car to save a quarter. That’s, like, manual labor and crap. Requires being all outside . . .
