Mine is what my husband does. PMT Preventive Medicine Tech, it will soon be EHO-Enviromental Health Officer. Since we're both semi in the same wave length I figured this is what would suite me the best. WOW I can't think....I never stay up this late!

Boost- to expand; to make greater; to improve
Originally BoostJunkie in reference to my addiction to the feeling of being pushed back in the seat as my car accelerate when the turbo spooled up and provided “boost.”
Lame I know, but have used it for so long and don’t feel the need to change my nick and try and fool anyone as being a different person. People would figure it out in the end anyways.

Hehe mine is from my favorite anime of all time Ranma 1/2. My favorite character is Ryoga and once he gets cold water on him he changes into a pig. Then Akane gave the pig the name of P chan. I just always liked him because he has bad luck. Of course the avatar is a picture of p chan.

Back when i was playing a game called Secondlife. well i knew her from FPS game, she was named sweets at the time, and i was..well i can't say it in here lol.. anyway in Second life she was called Talindra. and i never could call her that it didn't fit to her. but i loved the name no less. then i switch to an other game and all the names i wanted were taken.

I know what you mean! My oldest has a fairly easy name, though it is slightly different than the "norm" and a LOT of people hear the first part and assume they know what it is.
He does well and just takes it without correcting- yet the middle one will step in and correct them SAYING " HIS NAME IS: XXXXXXX!!"
Least in your neck of the woods those french speakers have some sort of reasonable excuse.
My name is actually french and half the people we meet can't remember it or mutilate it. There just isn't any winning!!

Though the dude tried that new Monster Jave (energy coffee) and it tastes an awful lot like his Georgia coffee from there.
He was a happy camper. :)

Haven't seen it here, but then I don't know that something like that would catch on in the states. I have tried summertime pepsi which was awesome! Like skittles and pepsi mixed.
Monster energy drink recently released a "java monster" which taste very similar to Georgia coffee from the machines there. I AM A VERY HAPPY MAN! I forgot how good those Georgia coffees were.

What game did you play? A few years ago, taken somewhat literally, could mean Wind Waker or Majora's Mask, if it was a new release at the time you played it. Majora's Mask is my all-time favorite .... Wow, okay, I'm a nerd. But yeah, I've kinda fallen out of being a Zelda fangirl like I used to be. Ever since Wind Waker, it just hasn't been the same... =(
