    One of the great things about CP (IMHO) is that we use our names, not wierd aliases to speak to each other. However, if you were to pick an alias - what would it be? :) (can you tell I'm winding down to a 4 day weekend :-O )


    It's much better than the term "embedded," though. I'm tired of hearing about embedded reporters. That must be a lousy job, like having a career as a suppository. - Roger Wright

Kind of "uhm, I dont need to hide behind an alias here", eh? btw: mine is (and long time was) normaly an anagram to my last name: uniwares (just sounds kind of software related).

            Yeah, that damned George Bush is putting us super heros out of business. I get a bat signal the other night, so into my nippled suit I scramble. The Batmobile is halfway warmed up and the signal goes out! I phoned up Chief Wigam (oh wait, wrong show, uh, anyway) asking what the hell is going on. Turns out George Bush had neatly stepped in and nuked the Bad Guy before I had even got the nipple clamps off the suit. Bloody hell, what is an honest, loner super hero like me to do? How can I compete with a trillion dollar backed man who can send nukes around the world with a press of a button? Makes me want to get a sidekick again, but I see Blair is already taken by, wait for it, George friggin Bush. I wonder if that Thatcher chick is still around? Next he will steal our trademark cape and nipple suits. Anyway, so yeah I work for Sun part time, my friends think I have gone with the dark side but I just show them my bank balance and they shut up and let me buy the drinks. Super heros have to eat too you know.

                        My friends called me "Ganji" in college, and the name has stuck. I like to be called both Ganji and Rohit, or Raju, which is my pet name inside my family. Actually there is even a story behind the name Ganji. I have got a pair of eyes that are really drooping, sort of, and look like the eyes of a guy who is high on something (though I am not). After I made some friends, and we got close enough to pass comments on each other, they started joking about me being high on marijuana, and gave me the name "Ganjedi". Ganjedi in Hindi is someone who takes marijuana habitually (I am not a Ganjedi by the way). Slowly Ganjedi became Ganji, and has stuck ever since. I like it because it reminds me of my college days. So if it's an alias, Ganji it will be.

                              You're really going to hate me for this one but....... There is a gay/mixed pub I go to with friends sometimes - really relaxed place, get chatting to loads of people. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago the bar staff virtually herded us into the dancefloor/stage area because there was a male stripper on and noone seemed to be interested. His stage name by the way, is Eclipse :laugh: So do you have an evening job ? It does raise a question though - why bother with stippers ? Most of us found the act silly but didn't want to hurt the guys feelings :rolleyes: Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

                                        You're really going to hate me for this one but....... There is a gay/mixed pub I go to with friends sometimes - really relaxed place, get chatting to loads of people. Anyway, a couple of weeks ago the bar staff virtually herded us into the dancefloor/stage area because there was a male stripper on and noone seemed to be interested. His stage name by the way, is Eclipse :laugh: So do you have an evening job ? It does raise a question though - why bother with stippers ? Most of us found the act silly but didn't want to hurt the guys feelings :rolleyes: Elaine :rose: The tigress is here :-D

                                          One of the great things about CP (IMHO) is that we use our names, not wierd aliases to speak to each other. However, if you were to pick an alias - what would it be? :) (can you tell I'm winding down to a 4 day weekend :-O )


                                          It's much better than the term "embedded," though. I'm tired of hearing about embedded reporters. That must be a lousy job, like having a career as a suppository. - Roger Wright

                                          I would use my Sonork/game name which is "RIGamortis". It derives from the old 3 letter high score entry system on video games. It should be RIA, but I preferred RIG. When I moved over to coding for the Atari-ST, I extended it to RIGamortis. I use this name for all my on-line games / chat room thingies.
