I get a lot more respect since I changed my name from **lieu from hell**. Kinda.

**Silky Throat**? Oooh, that’s deep.

Well, **Gazelle from heck** just doesn’t have the right balance to it. **Gazellewiththenosepearls** also has that not-too-serious-ness about it that wouldn’t work in the tear jearker threads. **Gamera** isn’t related at all, but it is my favorite Godzilla foe. Hey, if you can’t pointlessly inject a duel-exhaust turtle into a thread, what _can_ you do?

Aww, shoot. I thought “Gazelle from Hell” was one of the best usernames on this board. Oh, well. If “Gazelle” works better for you, go for it. We’ll all recover. Probably.

For those of you who haven’t been to Minnesota, a travel guide:

Circle 1: Melancholy.  
Circle 2: The Lustful. **Blown about by stormy winds.** Later in the season, maybe.  
Circle 3: **Lying in mud, besieged by snow, hail and filthy water.**  
Circle 4: **Condemned to useless labor.**  
Circle 5: Attacking one another. Maybe in the Pit…  
Circle 6: Confined in burning tombs. Okay, not that one.  
Circle 7: Submerged in hot blood, encased in trees, and being forced to live naked on burning sand. Golly, I hope not! Uh-oh… **Running.**  
Circle 8: Whipped by devils, covered with filth, turned upside down with fire on feet (ooh! like that droid in Return of the Jedi!), Heads twisted around backwards (again, maybe in the Pit…), Covered by boiling pitch, again with the devils, clad in leaden mantles, trapped in a snake pit, concealed in flames, wounded, diseased, abusing one another (again with the Pit…), and consigned to the depths of the earth.  
Circle 9: **entombed in ice.**

Ya’ll _know_ what really happened. See, **Gazelle** has been so good and brave that the folks in Hell won’t let her say she’s from there anymore. They _disowned_ her.

Yay **Gazelle**!!!

**AHunter** , that nick is looong gone. Sorry, bud.

**vanilla** , it’s [gazelle@kqrsrocks.com](mailto:gazelle@kqrsrocks.com)

**cadolphin** , thanks for the vote o’ confidence.

**bristlesage** , glad you enjoyed the locations. “Minnesota” is due to a lack of creativity right now… I’ll come up with something exciting… Then again, after reading **Ethilrist** ’s post, maybe I’ll leave it!

**lieu from hell**. It works. Go with it.

**NurseCarmen** , Gazelle from Heck? Bwahahahahaha! That’s it. I’m saving my next nose pearl for you. Hope you have something that goes with pea green, because it will be on a necklace.

**ForgottenLore** , hope you feel better.

**Unc!**! I haven’t heard from you in so long… I miss ya!

**scout** ybaby! After our short e-mail exchange last week, I thought maybe I’d scared ya off… Thanks for the endorsement. 😃

Awwww, **NinetyWt**. You’re so sweet to say that! 🙂 The “M” thingy is the symbol for Scorpio, of which I be one. Someone smarter than me can say what the symbol is… Greek?

I always liked the name “Gazelle From Hell”, and I absolutely loved the way the Hell part was in red. Everytime I read your name I said “Hell” in a scary voice. 🙂

Oh well, Gazelle is good too.

Sorry bout that. No harm intended.

And I browse sig-free, so I’m sorry I’ve missed this colorful sig!

Aw, now I’ll have to change my sig. And I won’t get to use the red markup like I wanted to.
