I wanted a female name...for some reason,

So are you a female?

Inquiring minds want to know :-)

[MrIndi]

After the best dog I’ve ever had

[ETL]

Thanks. You too! :)

[depressed in 06]

I started out as “60 in 06”. I was so distressed Nanzi took over the House and Dingy the Senate, I became “depress in 06”. Obummer has not helped.

[PROCON]

I’ll just call you Robert Louis Stevenson if you don’t mind :-)

[PROCON]

Thanks, God Bless your Dad. My Dad was WWII too.

Miss him :-(

[Polynikes]

Well... gee...

I'm really kinda embarrassed to talk about it, but here goes:

I played football at The University of Oklahoma. I'd really rather not say exactly when. Let's just say it was in the last century.

I was only a consensus all-American for three seasons, but I made all-conference for five.

I played several different positions, wherever the coaches needed me.

After finishing school with a double major in Petroleum Engineering and World History, I eschewed the NFL and joined the Navy, where I was a hand-to-hand combat instructor for the SEALS.

After a time, I eventually went to flight training and flew F-4 Phantom jets in the fleet.

After my eyesight changed and I was not able to fly any more, I left the Navy and returned to OU and finished my PhD in American Studies.

I still never miss a game, although I've had to refuse numerous invitations to join the coaching staff.

But like I said, because of my sense of modesty I'm still a little embarrassed to talk about it all.

[PROCON]

OMG, you did a graph......too much like MATH! :-)

[SnuffaBolshevik]

I hate commies.

[PROCON]

Hi Rus!

You told me once about your name, I forgot. Tell it again, please.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Going home....will catch up after Mom time.

Good job, Pro. ((HUGS))

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

Certainly you jest!

I wonder where I got my screen name? ;-)

Can anyone guess?

[PROCON]

Hi Doug, thanks for playing!

[Pollster1]

you need to be shot

I feel the same about some people in the business. However, my work was highly ethical, and it was never presented deceptively. People who didn't want the truth knew not to ask me.

[PROCON]

Bump and you do, indeed!

[Jemian]

It is my maiden name.

[Professional Engineer]

that’s YUUUUGEE!

[Zirondelle]

Zirondelle is Cajun for dragonfly.

[PROCON]

Well, Bullish sure fits, maybe bull-headed would be more accurate? :-)
