Origin of your nickname: Cont.

[cronO]

Remember back in the good ol' days? The days of super nintendo? Yeah, I remember those days. Those were good days... good good days.... Anyway, the point is, there was an SNES game called Chrono Trigger. I played the hell out of it and I loved it so much, i changed my online name to Crono. After a while, i got sick of seeing my name look like everyone elses, so i figured "Everyone else capitalizes the first letter of their name, I'll capitalize the last letter of mine. BWAHAHAHHAHAHA" Yeah, so that's how it came to be.

[Darth_Monkee]

Well, back in teh day when I first started surfing the net I chose the name "Apeman" has my handle, we all had one back then. It was our universal calling card and would be used thusly throughout the net and not just on one select message board. And until about 6 months ago thats what i used on everything, then i chose figure maniac because i collect a load of figures...but then i reverted back to my monkey heritage and chose the tried and tested name of Darth monkee

muwhahaha, ph33r my jedi skilz!!

[Jezebel]

Okay seriously though, my name was given to me by a friend in high school. Very big bible thumper, great sense of humor. He would jokingly call me a Godless Jezebel anytime I mention a boy I liked, or going out on a date. It soon stuck. One of my other friend, outside of school, also starting calling me Jezebel, since my name is Jezikah, and pretty soon everybody got in on it.


"Jezebel was the daughter of Ethbaal, the king of the Sidonians, and the wife of King Ahab of Israel (1 Kings 16:31). In glaring contrast to all of the good women of The Bible, Jezebel has gone down in Bible History as the very worst example of evil. She committed many atrocious crimes against those who were faithful and obedient to God, before experiencing an extremely gruesome end herself."

"The idolatry was of course a direct violation of the First and Second of The Ten Commandments. In Jezebel's case, it involved some of the most vile and perverted behavior imaginable. Even little babies were sacrificed in fire as burnt offerings to her god of stone. It was the height of wickedness."

Good Times.

I also eat babies. Go figure.

Peep?

[fractalys]

And what a great idea behind it... Wicked is good

[Mr.Loaf]

I was sitting around one day with TGZ and I thought it would be funny if a loaf of bread were to have a face on it. He then made the face on photoshop and I named it Mr. Loaf. Riveting isnt it?

[Jezebel]

Oh yes. I also have an unhealthy obsession with peeps. *peeppeep*

[Lunarwind]

I like you...


DAMN! almost forgot. MEEP. And I really got to get a Avatar stat

[Baron Von Waffle]

It was a dark and stormy night on the country roads of eastern Europe. A little gypsy boy is tossed from the back of his wagon as a bolt of lightning causes the horses to jolt in fear. He finds a welcoming family of duckbilled platypuses which takes him in as their own. When he grew older he realized that he wasn't like other duck-billed platypuses. He had no bill, no web-feet, and his mating technique just didn't impress the ladies. Leaving the only family he knew, he journeyed through the forest in search a place where he could find people like himself.
*a long, boring narrative later*

And so, having defeated the three headed ninja, he rightfully earned the title "Queen of England", which he soon traded to a wandering shrubber for the title "Baron Von Waffle" and half a peanut butter sandwich.

[Imperator Severn]

Oh yes. I also have an unhealthy obsession with peeps. *peeppeep*

You mean those nasty little marshmalow things?

Oy, gevalt.

Now the entirely true story of my origins.

The Shipman family was originally Schiffmann. The Schiffmann family is said to
have lived about eight miles southeast of Hamburg, Germany on the Elbe River.
Mr. and Mrs. Schiffmann and their two small sons, Joseph and Daniel, began a
trip to Wales where they intended to obtain passage to New Jersey in America.
During the trip to Wales or soon after their arrival, Mr. Schiffmann died.

In a short time, the widow married a man named Gage. Mr. Gage had a son named
David. The family was to remain in Wales for some years. By the late 1720s
the boys were of age to continue the planned trip to America by themselves.
They have said to have set sail, landing on the New Jersey shores sometime in
the early 1730s. It appears that sometime during the voyage, the name
Schiffmann was changed to Shipman.

Joseph Shipman is said to have settled in the New Jersey area. David Gage
married Abigail Burleson soon after their arrival. They moved with her parents
to Lunenburg County, Virginia. Daniel Shipman is said to have gone to
Pennsylvania Dutch country. After several years, he was not happy there and so
moved to Lunenburg County also. Upon his arrival, he married Abigail's sister,
Elizabeth Burleson.
