FReeper names explained
My curiousity | Now | Yours truly

Posted on 01/18/2002 5:03:35 PM PST by Come get it

Some FReepers have nicks that are obvious in their origin, others don't. I've seen several that probably have interesting stories behind them.

I thought it would be cool to see where FReepers get their handles from. If you don't like this topic, DON'T POST HERE! No one forces you to read this. I'm sure other people may be interested. If I'm the only one, let me know so I can crawl away in shame.

Greek: DIOTIMA.

(Perp. Fest. Cal) "March 13. Diotima, teacher of Socrates."

(Plato, Symposium, 201 d.) Socrates describes his teacher: "Diotima of Mantinea, a woman wise in this (i.e. love) and in many other kinds of knowledge. . She was my instructress."

(Lucian, Portraiture, 18) "Diotima shall be still another [model] and Diotima shall be copied not only in those qualities for which Socrates commended her, but in her general intelligence and power to give counsel".

RightlySo... Well, it's a simple pun. I lean to the right, and rightfully so! Libs would think it arrogant, I call it basking in the security and warmth of common sense.

To: Tennessee_Bob; Shooter2.5
Someone on this board actually accused me of not shooting at all so I posted the picture on my profiles page.

I'm not doubting you're a shooter...but what caliber is that cat??

I don't deny that you are a shooter either, but from what I saw you should be Sworder2.5 (Sword 2 1/2 feet long)

What do you shoot?

Back a few years ago about all that the media could say about the liberal agenda was that "The American People" wanted it. "The People" wanted national health care. "The People" wanted Clinton to go free. Etc. We spent long hours here trying to figure out who these people were.

So I became T. P. Pole. Now we all can know who T. P. Pole is and what he wants.
