If you want to use this QR code (Quick Response code) just save the image and paste it where you want. You can even print it and use it that way. Coffee cups, T-Shirts etc would all be good for the QR code.

Original??? nope. When asked for a user name, I'd been fighting AS for well over 30 years now. (Didn't do the actual math until after I wrote the username.) Therefore, I am a 30 year vetran of AS battles. I guess I should have made my username so it changed with my age. (No, I'm not 30 years old, I only wish I was.)

When I was in high school, I worked as a waitress, serving people who ate in their cars-the old curb service.
I was tiny at the time, barely 5" tall and weighed about 90 pounds, scurrying out there in the parking lot, so the cooks nicknamed me Mouse.
When I registered at kickas, I didn't really think I'd be staying around long; I just wanted a few questions answered. Because of that, I didn't bother to give my user name much thought.
Anyway, the name Mouse brings back mostly fond memories of my days as a curbie.

a - Anantakrishnapuram, the native village of my ancestors for generations. n - Narayanachari, my great grandfather( dad of my grandpa through father's side) s - Srinivasaraghavan, my dearest grandpa( dad of my dad) ram - my name
Thus the username ansram. When signing up for a hotmail( and yahoo) id several years ago, I could not get any name of my choice and had to find a name using some parameters unique to me and I had to comeup with the above strategy.

Mine is pretty simple to figure out... Youngest of 7 kids and have always been called little sis or little sister since I can remember. I was little sis to all my siblings friends too. Seemed like Lisa was a name that only came up when one of them was mad at me and that wasn't often, because I was such a sweet kid!!  I have used the name for everything, even on my license plate. Thanks for bringing this question up again...great to see why people are who they are. Hugs, Lisa

No real story behind my name. I just thought ball of sunshine sounded joyful. Especially being that I just joined and it's winter here and I haven't seen the sun in FOREVER!! Guess I was getting a little depressed and anxious to see the sun again!!

Not sure why this suddenly appeared on my Popular Posts page when the last post was three years ago . . . but anyway . . . don't think i ever answered! I could be wrong. But oh well! BarnGoddess84 is simple - I'm a pagan cowgirl born in 1984. And, I ran a stable for 4 years, was the Barn Manager, was there 6 or 7 days a week, sunup to sometimes midnight, (I had a bedroom there, sometimes I stayed over) and I was just . . . the BarnGoddess. lol. i'm also BarnGoddess84 on eBay and pretty much everywhere I have a membership. I never have any competition for the name! And BTW, I've heard the Taos Hum.

One of my cats.  The other one is jealous, too. No one is ever happy.  This was interesting to read, as I'd wondered about some of the names people chose.

My name is made up of letters from my first and last name... My First name John so took the J, my surname Sunderland so took sun the year I was born 69 and put the letter A in so it made sense jasun69. Used for many years in email addresses and other things.
