What's In a Name?

A rose by any other name would smell as sweet (at least according to old Bill Shakespeare). So what's the story behind your screen name? What does it mean? Why did you choose it?

By the way, I checked it out, and it looks like the last time the Org had a thread about this was a year and a half ago. I didn't recognize the screen names of a lot of the posters in the old thread, and perhaps we have added many members since then.

Oh yeah, mine is a feeble (and I do mean feeble) attempt at humor. Think of it as the way the Three Stooges or maybe Popeye would say "purple."

Saint Genesius is the patron saint of actors. I'm a girl, so I made it Genesia. shrug
We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

Dan said it best....

New World adventurers traverse the virgin land,
Like conquistadors who claim their booty, wealth and risk go hand in hand,
The time is now, may your plans be singularly exact and hastened,
There is thinking and no thinker but the Jason,

Georgia, North Carolina, Alabama, anywhere south of the Mason-Dixon,
He claims all territories for himself--every woman, virgin or vixen,
If you don't want to be left outside to fester in the sun like a raison,
Then you better understand there is nothing but the Jason,

The ladies want him in their vajay jay, nay? The fellas in the back door,
If you don't understand, then Ninja, your not keeping score,
Your vagina isn't yours anymore, it is all but emblazoned,
with the signature tattoo upon your hoo hoo that reads, "There is nothing but... The jason"

There is nothing but the Jason
There is nothing but the Jason
There is nothing but the Jason.

MacDaddy

My dad's initials are P.C.M and he taught himself how to work on both a PC and a Mac. He jokingly referred to himself as "PC Mac Daddy".

I love Mac's and couldn't come up with anything original myself so I therefore chose MacDaddy

Wait..It's pronounced as "Jan". Like a "done" smile Honza is the same like Bob = Robert, Bill = William.
