Charmaine, I pondered that "stinky" name for a fluffa ball.

No way? Your real name is Andrew?
Bertram is so funny! It sounds.. funny

I don't know all the names here, some of you I do know because of the FB group, but that doesn't make a lot of people!


I'd rather not be called by my real name because it's quite uncommon so.. Just call me Doux. (by the way, Doux is pronounced "dooh", there's no "x" sound in it!).

I really like your name!
It sounds really nice.


Haha those shoes are priceless!


And no.. I haven't seen it, indeed!
Dooks sounds horrible to me! Dooh is so much better.


I don't have pics on here.. But I do have a FB profile


Are you on FB?
It's easier to keep in touch with the members there.

i would be upset if someone used my real name. if it was ok why have a different username at all? also my name isn't a common one like mary or sue for example, and i would feel exposed.

Well once you get on FB it quickly becomes an addiction, so if you want to spend all your free time on the internet, by all means, create a profile


I think my email is up there somewhere, in Brown Owl School.

I *sort of* don't mind anyone knowing my "real" name but not going to throw it out there just yet since I'm still not positive how public I wish to be - not that I have anything to hide, but I have that dual tug of being born on the Cancer-Leo cusp (July 20) though Cancer predominates and enjoys the capability of keeping secrets

Hubby is a Pisces and is DEFINITELY into being paranoid about what is known about him, but any of my online friends know HIM as "Al" (as in "You Can Call Me Al," since that's the song that always jumps into my head when the "what shall we call you?" question comes up, and "Al" happens to be one version of his "real" name, lol!).

I don't feel like I have anything to hide per se but do very much value my privacy and always have.

I've moon and pluto in the 8th and sun in the 4th.

this is my special place to come and get away from the world and have fun. Why would I want other people to know about it? The internet is not always the safest place in the world either. I don't need random people knowing my full name or most of it, where I live, what I do etc.

Better safe than sorry. You never know who's out there reading. We have a lot of lurkers and I'd rather play it safe. Maybe I've been watching too many detective and murder mystery type shows. lol But I like to try to stay safe and have always valued my privacy very much.
