mine's skibum because i'm into skiing and it was my original AOL screen name when I was 15 and since skibum15 was taken, it was may when i got it, so it became 515

Mine comes from swedish word for hope = hopp, but it was taken in almost all places that I went to...so I got "creative" and start to take off /add ..and it ended with oppita - which will be equivalent to pronunciation of small hope in spanish ...:-))

I usually use the name loveshoe... it's my name on every other board, IM, and email address that I have. One of my BF's names online is BCFlyer, so I combined our names for this purpose, since this is an aviation-related board. That's also the name I gave our wireless network at home. After I'd made a hundred or so posts I was wishing that I'd stuck with my loveshoe name, but I was pretty deep in by then, haha.

Mine is because it follows my career and passion. ASL is American Sign Language and hands because you use your hands to sign. I guess it is a little redundant....

I'm so glad we're doing this! Mine is a little creative I think. If you read it out it says "aviator wife." My email address is ATAAV8RWYF which used to stand for ATA where my husband worked. Then he got on w/ Air Tran and I thought I'd need to change it but the initials still work! My brother says it looks like someone slammed their head on a keyboard! My brother can't see outside the box!

Mine has to do with a childhood nickname. My dad used to tell this wonderful series of stories when I was a little girl about a turtle named Chickadee. The whole family took to calling me that or some variation. And the 75? Well, that's my birthyear.

gotta love it!

Another dull one here - name (Katherine) and date of birth (2 April 73) Not 4 Feb for the American contingent here! That one still gets my husband - he's managed to remember that it's April by now but he's still convinced (to the extent that he put it on our marriage licence... in front of my mother, who now thinks he is completely clueless) that it's the 4th!
