Not that anyone will really care, I’m not a big-time poster on this forum, but the thread on screen names got me to thinking about how boring my screenname is “hollidan”. Not that my new name is so freakin’ original, hell I stole it from a movie. But I am in the Navy and I am a Lieutenant, so might as well go with something that has a little more zip than hollidan, which is just a combination of my first name and the first 4 letters of my last name.
So from henceforth (is that a word?), let it be known that hollidan is now Lieutenant_Dan.
“which is just a combination of my first name and the first 4 letters of my last name.” There’s your problem! That would be the first ‘FIVE’ letters of your last name.
I realize you were joking. The WTF wasn’t directed toward you. It was a WTF is up with Michael Vick? Guess I really haven’t been paying that much attention to mainstream sports.
Thanks Monk. Ever catch that show on NPR, don’t know the name of it, but the whole show is on the english language. They talk about word origins, common improper uses of words and catch phrases. Pretty interesting show. I think it’s on the weekends.
