So who do you think has the coolest nickname name here? I hate to honk my own horn but hey ::honk honk:: I also really like tatertot, green bean, and Drain Bead. So who gets your vote for the coolest nick here?

I **love** your name, Talkingsquirrel, even though squirrel is very hard to spell. 🙂

I like all the food nicknames, with a special nod to my sister spud, Saucy Potato.

Shirley Ujest and Sue Dunhym make me giggle.

And no nickname thread is complete without mentioning Canthearya.

Something about SwimmingRiddles is really intriguing.

Coldfire is pretty heavy too.

::Vanity alert on::  
I’m mighty proud of my honkytonkwillie. It’s taken me five years to come up with a user name that I really like.  
::Vanity alert off::

My post count is still in the single digits, so it’s entirely possible that I’ve not been noticed. Yet. But I fully expect loads of people to tell me mine is just great, the best they’ve seen to date.

Hmmm…I’ll have to recalibrate that Vanity sensor. The alert seems to be shutting off too early.
