    my user name

    I decided on "Suziehistory" because I'm a historian, and my name is Sue. Women who like to do housework are called "Suzie Homemaker" no matter what their name really is, so I thought my choice fit me.

    Evil Roy Slade is the name of a movie starring John Astin. Originally, it was the pilot for a TV series, but the series was never purchased. The premise was that the villain stayed the same, but the good guys got killed in each episode. This movie has to be the funniest western ever made and I still laugh every time I watch it. When I started competing in Cowboy Action Shooting it seemed like the perfect alias to use and I've been "Evil" ever since.

    Now you have to tell us Sharon :D

    Evil, I checked up a bit on the movie and it sounds like one I would enjoy. I must try to get my hands or see it somehow. I also found out that the John Astin the lead was Gomez in the old Addams Family series. He was a character in that so I'm sure he would be funny in Evil Roy Slade as well. I'll check out the Cowboy Action Shooting links better when I get time also.

    I chose pondlady because that's what everyone in New Orleans started calling me when I started my pond business back in 1989. When we were transmitting with 300 baud modems and I was beta testing AOL, I was the pondlady. Still am.

    Sharon, you must tell the EvilRoy story.

    For starters, my real name is Mary. BOOOORRRIIINNNNGGG. So I thought about NoBrainer, went by Visionary for a time (both in reference to a stroke several years back that took 30% of both my brain and eyesight) but I'm prone to depression so didn't want a name that was a constant reminder. So now most place I go I use critter painter because that's my rainy-day hobby, painting animals and such. Though I'm thinking about StewLurker, lol!

    CP, you must have had lots and lots of brains to be able to lose 30% and still have left what you have. Congrats on your recovery!!
