Re: Please Read What does your Username mean?

Hello everyone. Figured I'd jump in and share where my name came from as well, since there are some interesting stories here. When I was trying to think of a nickname to use when I first starting using the Net, a friend of mine came up with "Squish" because he said it was short for squishington, which was a character on a cartoon he watched, and said I reminded him of the cartoon Character because "I was cute like the character". I thought it was a cool name, so have used it ever since.

Re: Please Read What does your Username mean?

zoogor is a demented old monkey on disney's "tarzan". well he's not a monkey, that's just the name he yells into a hollowed out fallen tree (in a deep voice) that scares all the other jungle folk because they think it's a great big evil ape hell bent on killing them all. my doughter used to watch it over and over. i liked it.

Re: Please Read What does your Username mean?

well... my name is a bit puzzling, "Mooka" is an old derogatory name for someone who is mentally retarded, and "Pyro" is a fancy term for staged fire, explosions etc.
So, I guess I'm just a Retard on Fire!!!! it's also the name of a production and promotion
company my wife and I used to run... Mel and Pete...M.....P... Mookapyro

Re: Please Read What does your Username mean?

LadyVanita, of course, is my horse's name. I only ever called her Vanita at home, but in the show ring it was Lady Vanita. At first, I thought that it was a snotty name to use, but, it was easy to remember. Now, it is kinda fun and mysterious, don't you think?

Re: Please Read What does your Username mean?

I used to read Mad magazine when I was a kid. R. U. Krazy was a name they made up and used in the magazine from time to time and it stuck in my head.

I enjoy gold prospecting. Au is the symbol for gold and ferret means to search and discover through persistent investigation.
