Nuffin really, Just got tired of signing my name, so I shortenend it. The name stuck at work. It's better sometimes to choose your own nick, than have one picked for you.

Prisca
Prisca = the Latin version of Priscilla, my real name.
I picked it many years ago for another DB. "Priscilla" was already taken, so I chose something that was still close to my name but unusual at the same time.

bittersweet
I am a little bitter about the organisation and how it stole my childhood, but I do have a few sweet memories. Hence, bittersweet.

From a Bob Dylan song (note particularly the last verse):
Stuck Inside of Mobile With the Memphis Blues Again
Oh, the ragman draws circles
Up and down the block.
I'd ask him what the matter was
But I know that he don't talk.
And the ladies treat me kindly
And furnish me with tape,
But deep inside my heart
I know I can't escape.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
Well, Shakespeare, he's in the alley
With his pointed shoes and his bells,
Speaking to some French girl,
Who says she knows me well.
And I would send a message
To find out if she's talked,
But the post office has been stolen
And the mailbox is locked.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
Mona tried to tell me
To stay away from the train line.
She said that all the railroad men
Just drink up your blood like wine.
An' I said, "Oh, I didn't know that,
But then again, there's only one I've met
An' he just smoked my eyelids
An' punched my cigarette."
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
Grandpa died last week
And now he's buried in the rocks,
But everybody still talks about
How badly they were shocked.
But me, I expected it to happen,
I knew he'd lost control
When he built a fire on Main Street
And shot it full of holes.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
Now the senator came down here
Showing ev'ryone his gun,
Handing out free tickets
To the wedding of his son.
An' me, I nearly got busted
An' wouldn't it be my luck
To get caught without a ticket
And be discovered beneath a truck.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
Now the preacher looked so baffled
When I asked him why he dressed
With twenty pounds of headlines
Stapled to his chest.
But he cursed me when I proved it to him,
Then I whispered, "Not even you can hide.
You see, you're just like me,
I hope you're satisfied."
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
Now the rainman gave me two cures,
Then he said, "Jump right in."
The one was Texas medicine,
The other was just railroad gin.
An' like a fool I mixed them
An' it strangled up my mind,
An' now people just get uglier
An' I have no sense of time.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
When Ruthie says come see her
In her honky-tonk lagoon,
Where I can watch her waltz for free
'Neath her Panamanian moon.
An' I say, "Aw come on now,
You must know about my debutante."
An' she says, "Your debutante just knows what you need
But I know what you want."
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.
Now the bricks lay on Grand Street
Where the neon madmen climb.
They all fall there so perfectly,
It all seems so well timed.
An' here I sit so patiently
Waiting to find out what price
You have to pay to get out of
Going through all these things twice.
Oh, Mama, can this really be the end,
To be stuck inside of Mobile
With the Memphis blues again.Copyright © 1966; renewed 1994 Dwarf Music When I finally got out of the WTS, I'd have paid nearly any price to get out of going through all those things twice.

mouthy
Just what it says MOUTHY!!! thats me... But I am not hiding either Grace Gough is my name-
As the Brothers used to tell me "Grace I wish you would think before you speak instead of speaking before you think..." I guess if I had ever learned to do that -I would be able to thank them for two things.But since I never mastered it-I can just thank them for me quitting smoking...... -
maxwell
When I first posted here, I didn't want to reveal my real name. So I chose this name. When I was in high school, there was a girl who would sometimes accidentally call me maxwell. She wasn't being mean or rude, it only happened a few times and she was a good friend of mine for the most part and I kind of like the name, but not enough to change my real name. My real name is Manuel. See the both have the same first two letters and the last syllables sound the same.

I always find it intersting when these threads appear, and they do sem to show up every month or so, but so many
new ones( i can't beleive I used that expression) newbies have joined since the last one, that it is always fascinating to hear the explanations behind the alias.Walter WOW, I would never have guessed. Many if not most of us had that holier than thou attitude, while we were members of the
PhariseesJW's.Most here know mine, though I still get PM's asking if it refers to vitamins or bombers
xjw_b12 ex jehovah's witness.... be one too !
