I believe the monkey hanging thing is correct, they mistook it for a spy ....although i dont know the proper tale, maybe someone could elaborate on it?




as i understand it during one of the many wars with the french a ship sank this monkey managed to get ashore and the people of hartlepoole hung it and thought it was a french spy

Uncle Kram;310441 wrote: Kram is just Mark backwards. It was SO hilarious in 1971, I don't mind telling you. Unparalleled and never-to-be-forgotten mirth for all present. It's the same reason I call my friends Bob and Hannah, Bob and Hannah.

The Uncle prefix came about in 1981 when our only friend who had a kid added it for the benefit of his son. It's an optional extra but is often used, especially when I'm introduced to people for some reason. Respect I guess :wah:

Yeah...whatever :rolleyes:


you dont half make me chuckle kramster :wah:

Some of them are obvoius (Weeder springs to mind) and some less so.

Mine was easy - as I've said elsewhere, Brynmawr is the village in Wales where I was born. Any others?




I usually use names that have either mouse or Turtle in them, which of course have their meanings alone. But thought since this is a new Forum, never joined one before just to join a discussion board....

Anyway, dreaming of having super hero powers....Raising 3 boys on my own and working 2 jobs... So Wonder Woman came to mind...and the number of boys I have...hence WonderWendy3 (my name is Wendy--duh) and then I think its funny that some of you call me WW3...cause that's how I feel some days that I'm in the middle of WW3!!

Welcome to the garden BTW.

My website is called the same thing as my username, so it was natural

bumpin' up an old thread for funzies

its what i think people need to be happy. its part of my personal dogma.

NotToday is something my son says a lot. I'll ask him a question and he'll answer me and say "Not today mommy"

I really do not know why I picked this.

"Not today" is something my son says alot.

I'll say "Hayden, are you ready for bed?" or "Hayden, are you ready for your bath?" and he'll say "NOT TODAY!!!" and go running another room.

Well could tell you all I was short (Or being an Aussie I could also be extra tall and get the same name :wah:) but decided to be truthful seeing as I dont know any of you

Midget is the name of the 'heroine in my head' when I used to daydream. She was kind of me - but was also all the things I wished I could be. The daydreams changed but the main charector never did

When I joined my first site a couple of years ago it was the obvious name to choose - and I finally had the chance to BE Her :wah:

Midget was already taken so added the 40 for my age - Yeah I know 40 is a bit old to still have imaginary friends but there you go...

Kept the name for consistency ever since

Just my name because its way easier to remember it. Then some screename.

As I explained in another thread, I like to write poetry and short stories.

To kill 2 birds with one stone...

my avatar is a sculpture called The Fremont Bridge Troll located under a bridge in Seattle.

One of my favorite movies is 10 Things I Hate About You and this statue was in it.

So when I got a chance to go to Seattle, I told my friends that if I see nothing else, I want to see that.

Scholle is the name of the ' ghost' town where I was raised and still live . It was a real town up till the late 1940's when everyone moved to bigger towns ,because of the drought and depression and WW2. My family has a ranch here and my grand dad was postmaster of the post office that was in a corner our front room. I'm a 4Th generation Scholle kid..

Mine was a simple choice, Maggie is a shortened version of Margaret, my christian name, and swimming is my favourite hobby, so thats how swimming maggie came about:)

This has been a really interesing thread for me to read.

As a newbie,I've been wondering about some of your user names and why you ended up choosing them.

As for me,mine is self explanatory.

I LOVE CHOCKY!!:wah:
