HAHA! Like anyone cares, I have FIVE AIM NAMES!! Count them 1…2…3…4…5…ah ah ah ah!! I’d like to think mine are creative too.

Heartashes  
Madameofdrunknes(couldn’t spell it right, not enough room)  
Malificentdragon  
Nymphscruple

Now I’ll go back to my cave and shiver in the cold darkness

Well, I have “SexyGrapefruit”, “EvilCandyStore”, “AnimeBootyRUs”, and “IAmASadTomato”, if any of those are creative, but I hardly ever use those ones.

That reminds me of something an ex of mine used to say. She was a Leo, and she always used to say “Rar…I’m a lion!” It was very cute and endearing.

By the way, all, I’m **SuperdudeKev**. Though probably not for very much longer. I’ll probably change, and when I do, I’ll letcha know.

I am the one and only \<B\>JellyBeanliness\</B\> on AIM in case anyone needs it. I really wish I used that for my doper screen name, too late now. Oh well.

Actually, **KBean** , it’s not. You _MIGHT_\* be able to if you throw yourself upon the mercy of **TubaDiva** our beloved administrator. No promises, but she might be able to change it for you.

You know, I haven’t decided yet. I’m wanting something deep, goofy, and so utterly ME that no one else has it.

Nice try, but wrongo! Actually, “247” is my high school class number. Up until the early '60s my high school used to graduate classes of seniors in February and June. To avoid confusion the school assigned class numbers instead of referring to them by year of graduation. I graduated in 1988, in case you’re interested.

BTW, any other Doper Lancers out here?

My AIM name is **TomIofIV**. And before anyone asks - it’s an inside joke with a friend of mine that no one ever finds nearly as hilarious as we do.

For security reasons, I don’t give my AIM or MSN names on the open board because they’re variations on my legal name. My AIM name is in my profile, and I do welcome IMs. Just let me know who you are, OK?
