 I've gotta admit i have two favorites....
 Pookie
 and Skippy....
      That's just the way I am....Oh wait.... there is one other...
 Whenever we play anything involving command words, passwords or security 
lockouts I have one word which works quite well for a name 9actually it 
is a name but it does not seem to mind being a word as well....) 
 Note: I never actually use this for anything real because everybody and 
his (or her ) aunt guesses this one first...


          Antwerp.


 I don't know...it's got legs....
  I guess this is what happens when your friends call you Nene...
  Which is by the way Hawaii's state bird....

Gopher : you would prefer 'snook-ums'?  It's still at S-Mart - I just
 checked.

O.K. I give. Just what does a 'snook-ums' look like? *giggle*
I don't know Andy, it might be kind of fun!

Oh not you too! <sigh>

OK. I was thinking about this. As grateful as I am to the Space Gopher for
my Christmas 'nickname', it doesn't seem to be sticking. And since the rules of
nicknaming exclude me from entitling myself with a new one, I guess I'm
at the mercy of the list's members (the ones who give a hoot) to come up
with something else. Sorry Windlily, but I don't think Snook-ums will cut it (I
have no idea what one looks like, but the name itself conjures up images of
white and pink fur and sickening cuteness. It might be bearable if it had a
poisonous stinger on its back feet^_^).  I'd also advise those with submissions
to the "Not-So-Great Nickname Contest" to send them to me directly to cut
down on spam on the list (I know, it's not as much fun, but it's a little too
low in fanfic content to warrant the bandwidth) :)
