A character from a book. I was using Ford Prefect, another character from the same book, but very few got the reference and I was tired of being asked what sort of Ford I drive 😂
@Zaphod42 Mine is a character from literature also. I do recognize Ford Prefect, but I don 't remember who Zaphod is (although I see you worked 42 in there!)
@DrWatson Zaphod Beeblebrox the first, president of the Galaxy and mastermind behind the theft of the starship Heart Of Gold. Also, he stole a girl from Arther once at a party in Islington 😉
I’m guessing yours is from the famous A.C. Doyle books?
@Zaphod42 I read the Hitchhiker books a long time ago, so I have forgotten most of what happens. And yes, I have read all of Doyle's Sherlock Holmes stories.
Well, I have salvation, thanks to God's saving grace, and I'm still alive because of Him, so I decided to call myself LadyGrace, in honor of Him, and who He is.
All the names I wanted to pick weren’t available, and I was irritated and thought let’s do the first thing that comes to mind, what am I feeling right now?
Pressureeeeeeee.
I have a clever name but I can’t even get into that account and I don’t think I care to
My family (for whatever reason) always refer to themselves as [i]The Bears.[/i] Once when I was on a fishing trip, I had wrangled two stripped bass caught on my trot line. I was in waist deep water trying to grab my catch around the gills. A fisherman watched me and compared me to a grizzly bear trying to catch salmon out of a stream. 😂😂😂 But the symbolism stuck with me about Bears being a guardian of nature, live and let live, but is courageous enough to protect their loved ones, friends, and the weak with unmatched ferocity. So.. it's a combination of things but Red grizzly is about as personal as it gets.
i'm a history/ medieval enthusiast and have studied and read about the templar knights and the holy crusades, that's where i got my idea and inspiration.
I got bored and decided to look through my email spam folder, to find that about half of the emails eerily contain this copypasta:

My favourite book from my favourite novelist..... and it's fun some people change it to, windup, birdie, even some say chronicles... I prefer birdie, as I don't write a lot and while I can get wound up, it's not how I am often. 😉
On my way home yesterday, in Canada at this time of year, especially, I was taken by a butterfly conservatory I have been in once before.... warm memories were enough against the blowing snow.
@Zaphod42 One of the reasons I like it because I'm a pretty scruffy dude so it evokes being scruffy while it's actually about a horrible tuberculosis symptom!
In the movie Tom Hanks used his city and his home number for his, so I did the same, well almost. I chickened out with the house number and went with my age and Jersey number at the time.
