r4cents Posted May 22, 2005 #178 Share Posted May 22, 2005 r4cents As in "our four cents". There are 4 of us, last name is like the coin, and I thought we'd all be sharing a screen name when we got our first computer. (Teenagers had their own thoughts on that!) So it's just my handle.

cruise fairy Posted May 22, 2005 #179 Share Posted May 22, 2005 cruise fairy I have been trying to talk my Dad into taking a cruise for 1 1/2 yrs, ever since we came off our 1st cruise...so I've been sending him notes, emails, and websites signing "Cruise Fairy" to everything. Finally he gave in. Now my Mom and stepdad, my Dad and stepmom, DH, and DD are all going on a cruise together. I can hardly wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tam-tam Posted May 22, 2005 #186 Share Posted May 22, 2005 This is a great thread. I, too, was pretty unimaginative with my login name. "Tam-Tam" is what my nephew called me when we were both children (we're only a few years apart). It's short for Tammy. It kind of stuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ship Dude Posted May 22, 2005 #189 Share Posted May 22, 2005 CC was the first message board I registered on and it took me a few minutes to come up with something that identified me and didn't identify me (in case I got cold feet and didn't meet up wsith CCers at the sail away party). Being from L.A. dude seemed appropriate and Ship dude sounded better than Crusie dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oystergrower Posted May 23, 2005 #192 Share Posted May 23, 2005 Obviously, I grow oysters. It's part of a project where I live to replenish the oyster population. We start with spat, grow it in a float and then take it to be placed on a reef. As our shirts say on the back - "Oysters are habitat forming".
