THAT is why we love him so.

Re: Why so secretive?
I caught two people off guard at the M&G greet calling them by their real names. I Think I flat out creeped out Junglesmacks, by calling him by his real name.
It wasn't on purpose though.
What other people think about you is none of your business.

Re: Why so secretive?
HA! Nah. There's no secret. My name is Mark. I have no qualms with being called either. I think what caught me off guard was that there are only maybe 2-3 people on here that have ever seen an email from my work/business email, and you were one of them.Bounce530 wrote:I caught two people off guard at the M&G greet calling them by their real names.

..which.. by the way.. has proved to be a stellar contact. That little piece of referral you gave me has now transformed into our primary and wonderful shipping supplier and has saved us thousands of $$..
Among other things, the business contacts and opportunities that I've made through this board and BM have been literally life changing.

I thought the three pictures explained some series of progression of you becoming a frog bird. But the middle one throws me for a loop.

Yes.. it would most likely lead to even more red hand prints at an even FASTER rate than before!
..and no, I'm not saying that like it's a bad thing.

Re: Why so secretive?
I just can't wait for the next MnG! I don't even care what you want to be called so long as I can call out that name and hug you.
I'm talking to all of you.

Shambala wrote:I have two playa names depending which side of center camp I am on. I had a feeling of horror when Sailman saw me on the "other side" of the playa and called me Shammy. The people I was with looked at me with a weird confusion. I don't think anyone really caught it.
I'm still not sure how I should actually pronounce Shambala. I only type it, but never really say it out loud.
I was named after a Saint, which I am sure I most definitely haven't lived up to, especially if you ask my Mom. Though, I am forced to go with it in much of Defaultopia. We have a good burner community here and most use our playa names when we get together. It takes me to a happy place.
Excuse me Ma'am, your going to feel a small prick.
