    LOL ROTF LMAO
    Bless you Glenna, I hesitated to post that. Finally. To be honest about it. While I was trying to figure it out....my futile imagination was coming with with stuff that was a lot worse then that. Thanks. Funny story..years ago I had a guy friend that would jump in the air click his heels to one side and "cut one" Oh my God, I used to tell him I wasn't going out with him anymore if he did it everywhere. But, I did. He'd just look at me with his stupid grin. and say "Well, what do you want me to do...explode..!!!!!"
    What a great thread this has been. Lightens up the day and we all sure need that. Rose (Still cracking up.!!!)

    Rose, what are you thinking???
    Now I'm curious but don't know if I dare to ask what you are thinking that is a lot worse - LOL.

    I love this thread, it is so nice to spend time enjoying a good laugh each morning. This is the first thread I read in the morning so I can start my day with a smile!!

    Actually, another forum name


    Actually, another forum name I have was based on another nick name that I have. Mata Hari 22. I had gotten that nick name when I worked at McDonalds because I had an employee that was Indonesian. We were always learning new Indonesian words and expessions. One day I asked Hariandy how to say my name, Dawn, in Indonesian. He said they didn't have that word, so I told him that many people always call me sunshine or sun rise. He said sun rise is mata hari. He wrote it on a piece of paper for me. I laughed so hard because I thought he was kidding. I asked him if he knew there was a 'real' Mata Hari. He didn't. Plus I love belly dance so that name pretty much stuck with Harry. He never called me Dawn. There are a few men that call me sun rise. They all arrived at that nick name on their own not knowing about it from anywhere else. My old DM at the shoe store I worked at always called me sun rise, a man I sung with in my chorale, customers that came in daily at McDs and one who came in all the time when I worked at my step moms bakery.

    get this question alot
    Ms because on other sites I only use wijik and people don't know whether I'm a girl or not LOL (I should have put Mrs. but then everyone thinks I'm 80 years old or something)

    Wijik was the name of my first cat, and I got the name from a children's book.

    NYC is where I live - New York City.

    If Patrick had used this site, I imagine he would have used Ironworker1536 (he was out of Carpenters Local 1536 - scaffolders and timbermen)

    Myka - I thought the same thing . . . sorry :)

    SCAFFOLD BUILDER
    Did Patrick ever work for Safway Scaffold? We have an office in Flushin and one on Kennilworth NJ??

    I run the operation here in St.louis.I put Patrick on a prayer chain with my Ironworkers, Carpenters, Laborers and Boilermaker Locals.

    I hope you are doing OK. Good to see you on the site. We all care about you.

    Best!!!

    What means rabarbar?
    This is a plant, Rheum. In polish we call it "Rabarbar". Don't ask me why I chose this name. It was the first word I thought. Maybe I should visit my psychologist? ;-)

    There is great survivor on the CR CSN board called Pete4_lost_at sea.

    Check out this website for why he uses this name. An incredible double, no make that triple barrel, no make that...well let's just a multibarrelsed story. Anyway check out the clip and you will see why and how he used this promote early screening for BC.

    Name is fairly easy.

    History, I served as a Marine along with my brother when we joined together during Vietnam. We both served in Vietnam ( volunteered ) at the same time, different bases. We made the same rank, Enlisted paygrade 5 = Sgt. We both made it home. We both have battled cancer.
