Where'd you get your name?

I’ve posted this before and wasn’t believed, but I got my name from a work colleague when she saw the length of my tongue.

It’s true - honest!

I want to know where Pump Action Gerbil got his/her name from! (Or maybe I don’t)

Anyone seen that old black and white movie Witness for the Prosecution? I was watching it at a friends one night a long time ago and the trailer that was shown at the beginning of the movie said the leading actress (Marlene Dietrich?) portrayed an intriguing question mark. We all thought it was hilarious (at 2 am). Somehow, when we all chose nicknames I got that one and we all just shortened it to I.Q. but I decided to put down the long version here, I felt just I.Q. was kinda…I dunno…conceited or something.

I got mine from Greek mythology, because I really couldn’t think of anything and Ovid’s Metamorphoses was sitting right in front of me. I looked through it and chose Protesilaus, who was the first Greek killed in battle during the Trojan War.

I was thinking of a name for the boards, when I started looking through my winamp playlist. I came across the song “21st Centuety Digital Boy” by Bad Religion, and the song “Chorus of the Furies” by Faith and the Muse. I ended up combining the 2 words, since they sounded neat together.

I hope that made sense.

My dad. Gave me my name and my looks and took off.
