what is the "try" part for?

Can tell I don't check in often enough because there seems to be a few "hannas"

hannarama
hannabanannie

and another one, I think.

Can't keep anyone straight anymore. Certain posters have a similar energy and they end up blending together and I forget their names.

I know mirage is the ones that always posts at least a few songs in each and every post. For awhile I was getting her mixed up with "misserie" (sp?)

Luckily I don't pop in here much.

Charlie,

That's so sweet of you.

Hm, well mine means "sweet dream" in French.
I like the way it sounds and I love having sweet dreams, so.. haha.
It's pronounced "dooh rev" by the way, no "x" sound.

So on that note here is why I chose
"LEXX".

LEXX.....

I study ancient writings...so
LXX=

quote:

The Septuagint (IPA: /ˈsɛptuədʒɪnt/), or simply "LXX", is the Koine Greek version of the Hebrew Bible, translated in stages between the 3rd and 1st centuries BC in Alexandria.[1]

It is the oldest of several ancient translations of the Hebrew Bible into the Greek language, the lingua franca of the eastern Mediterranean from the time of Alexander the Great (356-323 BC). The word septuaginta[2] means "seventy" in Latin and derives from a tradition that seventy (or seventy-two) Jewish scholars translated the Pentateuch (Torah) from Hebrew into Greek for Ptolemy II Philadelphus, 285–246 BC.[3][4] ]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Septuagint

I also am a word fiend and Lexigrammer so I added "E" to LXX.
I also like the number "5" and "E" is the fifth letter of the alphabet.
And there you have it...
"LEXX":

quote:

---

E is the fifth letter in the Latin alphabet. Its name in English is spelled e (pronounced /iː/), plural ees (rare).[1] The letter E is the most commonly used letter in the Czech,[2] Danish,[2] Dutch,[2] English,[3] French,[4] German,[5] Hungarian,[2] Latin,[2] Norwegian,[2] Spanish,[6] and Swedish languages.[2]
E is derived from the Greek letter epsilon which is much the same in appearance (Ε, ε and function. In etymology, the Semitic hê probably first represented a praying or calling human figure (hillul jubilation), and was probably based on a similar Egyptian hieroglyph that was pronounced and used quite differently. In Semitic, the letter represented /h/ (and /e/ in foreign words), in Greek hê became Εψιλον (Epsilon) with the value /e/. Etruscans and Romans followed this usage. Arising from the Great Vowel Shift, English usage is rather different, namely /iː/ (derived from /eː/ in "me" or "bee") whereas other words like "bed" are closer to Latin and other languages in usage.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E

At the time I created this username, I was haunted by a scene from a Bugs Bunny Cartoon where he was exclaiming something like 'It's just a mirage-y!' (He was in the desert, pun he made was like Arabian nights, like a 'mirage-ji'... Many adult level puns were tucked into the speeches of characters in mid-1950s children's cartoons! )

What I liked was that even though 'it was only a mirage', Bugs Bunny was still able to use this 'oasis in the desert' for real... as ideal resting spot for himself!

I added the 29 for the day of my birthday. I kept bumping into people who had been born on the 29th of their birth month! We had an unofficial 29-club! Thought that his number could also help distinguish me from others who would chance on using the mirage name on another posting site somewhere...

-----
A few months after using my name 'mirage29' I found an association with the French airplane Mirage2000. How cool! I liked the thought of being a helper-scout type plane. Independent, yet part of a team! yay!

In my teens, I used to have dreams about huge strange complicated aircrafts and would draw them in my dreams journal.

When I started posting here at LL, I found a song that "fit" how I felt about parts of my life...
