    I've been wearing glasses since I was 7.

    I always thought tracer rounds from the night vision recordings made during wartime were very pretty.

    Also a sly reference to my attempts at art.

    Mines just my initials, surname, and a long-since defunct ID no. ::)  Boring,  know, but that's what I'm like. ;D

    Heh. Nice. I actually use different names also… each representing different things. My first one was fifiemk… which was based off my nickname based off my african name, Kofi….then emk based off my initials.

    Then theres 3 main ones I used…lol.

    BlackKusanagi, which was based off  of Kyo Kusanagi  – http://hg101.classicgaming.gamespy.com/kof/kof98-7.png , and the one I use a lot for Internet related things including my Playstation Network and Xbox Live account. Also of the Kusanagi sword of Japanese Folklore that was used on Orochi.

    Then theres BlackYagami, my alternate…and one I use sometimes when Im not so good of a mood, based off of Iori Yagami – http://boollette.free.fr/images/kof/gifs/iori%20flame.gif

    Then theres BlackOrochi, one I use when im in a foul mood..and when I dont really use the other two screens. Based off of Orochi, the serpent king.

    Then there was others like BlackKazama, BlackShinigami…and a personal favorite, Nigradamus.

    BTW, the Black part is there because well Im black, and both my parents hail from Ghana. 😛

    Inspiration?  I'd have to say, "being fed up".  😉

    Long ago, boys and girls, in these early days of message boards and bulletin boards, I was Jenwalters.  (After our favorite green glammazon, don'tcha know!)  After a prolonged absence, I had returned to find that another lady had been going by the nom de plume of JennJenn.

    And much confusion ensued.

    So, I changed it to Kate.  My real name.  Just Kate, I believe, although AlexG. was kind enough to call me Lady Kate  ;D
    After another unfortunate prolonged absence, I discovered another lady had been posting stories under the name Kate. 

    And much confusion ensued once again.

    So, here I am, settling at last for an adaptation of my own name, GTSKate, and I'm not changing it again.  So everyone will just have to get used to it.  🙂

    -Kate

    I know I'm going to date myself, but when I first went to college Quake had just come out and I was wasting my time in the computer lab with every other freshman. Anyway, the outfit that I wore on Quake was a red shirt with pink pants. A guy mentioned to me that in the game, my guy looked demented.  It just stuck after that. When I got to the net, I just put my age at the end of it at first… demented18, demented19, and so on.  When I got to 20 I just left it there.

    If you can't put 2 and 2 together, I fear for you mental well being.

    So, I changed it to Kate.  My real name.  Just Kate, I believe, although AlexG. was kind enough to call me Lady Kate  ;D

    And still do, Lady Kate . . .  😉

    Remember, accept NO substitutes – insist upon genuine gentle GTS Kate!  ;D

    ==========

    As a side note, I remember JennJenn, even met her a few times in chat over on IRC.  The other "Kate" I also seem to recall, she posted for a short time on ZZZ's GTS forum, **I think** stated she was a collage student and had accidentally discovered the GTS genre.

    Well, the origin of my moniker's pretty obvious to those of you who are
    native English speakers.  As for what I "Admire", I admire big, strong,
    muscular women, of course!

    Yet, this is sufficiently obscure for my fellow countrymen, who are known
    to be one of the worst learners of English after all….

    well, mine is just a nickname that has been with me since I was 17, and for those from Buenos Aires, I think you will understand why my freinds gave me that nick.

    That's all.

    PS: for those who understand, those dats are loooong gone.
