    heh... i got my username from my story "kitsunians rising..." jekan blazer is the main character...i love the name, honestly... i love to create names, and this is one of the names i created...


    as for my avatar, i like goofy, random, funny things, so if a pic looks funny to me, i'll usually sabe it for later untill my avatar gets old... then the old avatar goes to the avatar album for future use...

    Bounty and kiki...thanks! Bounty...you've mentioned to me that your screen name comes from one of your favorite novels; I have not read it, but I like your sn. And kiki, you have great taste in avatars. Beethoven is my all-time favorite composer.

    Off the top of my head, I like Scher's and Logos' names. Sweet and simple.

    yes---when i was thinking of a screen name, i wanted it to come from books, and mutiny on the bounty came to mind. so when i chose "bounty" i then went in search of internet images of the ship of the same name (from the book).

    theres actually a bounty trilogy and mutiny is the first one. theres also men against the sea and pitcairn island. they're all what id call roughly historical fiction. great stories.

    and speaking of phantom of the opera---being a fan of that story, and the musical (and the music), one of the more enjoyable contemporary books ive read recently is a sort of sequel, the phantom in manhatten, by frederick forysth.

    apparently im one of the few around who does not have something written under their screen name. i'll have to fix that sometime.

    smiles---i am also a big star trek fan but i would not have dared to have chosen "enterprise" as my screen name!

    I too get a kick out of the names and avatars some make up... So clever some people are.

    From my intro: Introduce Yourself here and say Hi :

    "My nom de plume 'tailor STATELY' comes from an anti-spam prompt I came upon when registering on this forum... I kind'a like it." LOL, not sure if I have to use quotations for my own words.

    I'll have to give great thought for an avatar though... Only used one once, for a short time, in all my years on the web.
