My nickname has always been Sunshine, my dad called me that all my life. Mom used to sing you are my sunshine to me all the time. And the 2 comes from another site I treid to register for (lowcarbfriends) awhile back and there was already a register user by the name of sunshine, so I typed a 1 next to it, and it said the same thing, so I typed a 2 next to it, and it took it.

So, in order not to confuse my blonde self, I use sunshine2 for everything when I register for something.

My real name is Tonya, I live in Oklahoma, and I know all about the OU Sooners, however, I'm an OSU Cowboy fan .

I like to keep my name secret and hide from others.

That is why kw = Key West, Florida U.S.A and henrykerr = Henry (Harris) Kerr

Maybe it is the Harris part that I am hiding...ho.ho.ho

By the way I love all of you for sharing the good and bad

[Kat817 19]

Kat817 Kat short for Kathy...short for Kathleen...and 8/17 is my birthday. One Sunday School teacher from long ago calls me Kathleen, is all.... Now that my Mom no longer hollers at me when she gets mad (I am not fooling myself that I no longer anger her!!!). In fact when she was not angry at all they usually called me "Sis" around home. If I was irritating her she would call me Kathy Ann---if and when she got around to the full Kathleen Annette---I knew I was in deep trouble!!!

Now most of my friends and my DH all call me Kat.

Not very imaginative here, as far as my name goes!!!

Kat

I use bitteroldhag as a moniker because one of my students called me a bitter old hag on ratemyprofessor.com. It hurt my feelings at first but then I figured that kid didn't do too well in my class so I adopted it for my internet name. My real name is Sharon and I'm 59 years old and would like to be thinner though I've only gotten to 185 pounds (down from 220). I take care of 7 animals and my 86 year old mother and teach a full load at Northeastern State University in Oklahoma. Boo, Sooners and Cowboys.

By the way, I forgot to mention our new mascot which is the Riverhawk. We can't use Redmen anymore since some Indians bitched about it even though our town is the capitol of the Western Cherokee Nation. We figure that riverhawks won't bitch too much. I'm not even sure what a riverhawk is. I wanted the Green Knights after Gawain and the Green Knight which is an old English story. I figured no green knights would gripe since they are pretty much defunct. But we are now the Riverhawks. I guess that's because we have a river and a lot of hawks.

Sooners is their name. They are the OU Sooners. Like Dallas Cowboys.

I think I should point out that during the land runs in Oklahoma, some folks got a head start and they were called sooners. So Oklahoma is the Sooner State and the University of Oklahoma teams are called Sooners. I have a little dissertation on NSU's new name for our teams. We are now the Riverhawks. I wonder if the ladies' basketball players will be called the Lady Hawks. They used to be called the Lady Reds. Sexist language has been officially banished at NSU.
