User names - thipfan73 - 10-01-2004

Ok, so some of us have user names that are easier to figure out than others. I think mine is pretty obvious. 73 is the year I was born.

How/Where did you get yours?

- bauer - 10-01-2004

I was given my handle (which everyone uses now) by a friend of mine back in college. I told him I was a huge Kids In The Hall fan and he said I reminded him of a character from that show. Bauer the pot smoker who gets his hair turned to pot by Satan. When I first started school I was a serious chronic (every few hours). Now that I work and have gone back to school I can only indulge after work. The handle has stuck, I guess it could be worse.

- Jenna_Bird - 10-01-2004

Mine is simple...sort of. Jenna is my first name (obviously) and Bird is the nickname my parents have always used with me. I was a preemie (3 3/4 months early) and my mother, upon first seeing me after the emergency cesarean said, "she looks like a little baby bird". So most of my family still calls me Bird. Jenna_Bird, seemed like a logical user name.

mine comes from the beginning of my last name.

Mine is easy - but weird in other forums.
I would like to change mine but not lose my info/status/whatever here.

Here is an old thread on this, from May 2003, that will help fill in the gaps Smile
