Watermelon Man I guess a darker green with a red part in the middle would be more **appropriate** , but at least it looks acceptable…😃 Just to demonstrate the appropriate :Watermelon Man In fact::Watermelon Man And separate name coding for both words: Watermelon Man ---

crazy4chaucer Purple! It was my favorite color when I was a kid. I remember begging my mother to let me paint my room purple, but she refused, insisting it was too dark a color. I retaliated in my own way. Now that I’m a grown-up and have my own house . . . I have a bright pink room, a bright yellow room, a seafoam green room, a dark blue room, a sandstone room, and a sky-blue room. teehee ---

Purple to match my shoelaces. I was thinking that we could form families like in that Kurt Vonnegut book (was it **Slapstick**?) where all of us of the same colour (or approximate tonal group) would be in one big pseudo-family and we could look to one another for support, companionship, and perhaps most importantly, _financial assistance_. Hey, it was just an idea. Of course, this would mean that I would be in the same family as crazy4chaucer, and have you seen the way that looney toon’s house is painted? 😉 ---
