My username is kind of a random homage to the 1970s. The afro is a 70's fashion cultural icon. , 1975 was the mid-point of the decade.

I love your name.

I love it even more now that I know its pronounced differently....I too thought it was sumthin' like Ma-kay-la.

Thanx

I have never met another Machaela in 47 years so I am guessing it's a bit unique

Won't be unique for much longer. I'm stealing the name for my first born daughter if I ever have kids

I love Ryan Gosling.

I joined so I could pimp his band... Dead Man's Bones.

I really liked the vibe here. And I stayed for a while or when I could say a thing or two.

The...End.

I love Sheila E.

So I'm an E fan.

It was all I could come up with at the time when I signed up.

Ooooooohhhh....!

Here I just thought it was short for "Stefan" or something.

i thought u were spelling out f'n

as in this place is f'n crazy

i had a great auntie doff.. her husband called her doffie, her real name was dorothy. she was a nice old lady, we always got a choc ice when we visited, she told us stories about the war & how she used to work in a sausage factory

It is a nickname my aunt and uncle gave me when I was a kid.

Nothing unique. Just the meaning of my first and middle name.

my initials and the European pronouncation for 'the'. My first orgname was my initials, however, I forgot the password for that one. So, I added D.

My grandmother calls me Giselle, because I remind her of her mother at times saying that she was a rebellious also with intelligence. ..which eventually grew on me. It's not my name. Names Ciara.

I'm a huge Prince and DJ Quik fan. Put those two together and you get my name: PrinceQuik.

I used to be a Teacher. Simple as that.

Cool. I like Quik a lot. I got into his music when I heard Rythmalism and then Balance and Options. He's a very underrated producer and probably better than Dr. Dre who relies too heavily on sampling imo.

Lammastide said:

"Lammas" - Christianized form of Lughnassadh, an old Gaelic festival marking the homestretch of summer.

"Lammastide" - The time of year around Lammas, which happens to be a favorite of mine.

...But with this whole global warming thing, Lammastide (Aug. 1) is quickly becoming less and less tolerable. As homages to pagan festivals go, I may have to shift to Mabon (Autumn Equinox) in my old age.

I have wanted to ask so many times. Thank you for sharing.

It's my name

pronounced ~

Ma-Shell-Lay

It's original and I love it

Beautiful.

SCNDLS said:

The Scandalous Sex Suite is my favorite slow jam and when I pledged I talked my line sisters into using Prince songs for our line names. So of course I had to be Scandalous, and I certainly was. Everyone on campus knew me as Scandalous and close friends still call me that. Then when I bought my first car I wanted vanity plates and had to condense Scandalous to six letters. I've had SCNDLS on my car since 1993.

Then when I bought another car last year, my Org peeps (Orger in particular ) helped me come up with another Prince-related vanity plate.

Work it!

FrenchGuy said:

Well, i'm french and I go to lot of English-speaking forums under different names, but when people mention me (quoting my comments, my posts...), they always say, "the French guy said...", "as the french guy mentioned...", etc...

So I've simply become THE Frenchguy!

And you wear it well . . . .

So u were thinking of Armpits???? u pervert....

Like you've never buried your tongue in one . . . .

Back in the day when I first went online (before GUI in fact), I used the moniker 'Hardbody.'

I was working out at the time and had finished second in my first contest.

Later my internet provider began merger mania and requiring new names.

I ended up with Suprman when I first joined, as I assumed Superman was taken (which it was of course.)

I was on here for about four years before I ever posted. I joined to lurk when the NPG site shut down, I checked out the Org. more and drop in from time to time.

My favorite Prince song...

Which way do I turn when I’m feeling lost?
If I sell my soul, now what will it cost?
Must I become naked? No image at all?
Shall I remain upright? Or get down and crawl?

It's the title of a stupid song I did when I was a teenager.

goi ng down on a girl.

its simple, and i guess pretty dirty. although im not wild or dirty or anything. people usually think its about scuba diving and im like noope, different diving.

You're lesbian or bi?

I created the screen name Inspirational One because I work with children in foster care, through a mentoring program and in the school system. I always strive to be a good example and inspire others to be their best and it means a lot to me when I can be a part of change in anyone's life. So much so that I went to graduate school to become a Counselor. Now I want to start a teen girl's groups that focus on self esteem, empowerment, and more. I use Inspirational One on all boards that I visit and as my penname when writing.

Plus, my eighth grade teacher told me I was an inspiration to my peers and for him because of how I carried myself in dealing with others. That always stuck with me.
