So then I suppose you wouldn't use "MissAnneDree" either? You're just no fun.

I know, despite my handle I'm actually a boring individual IRL.

But a certain member on here might be prepared to change his wifi to a variation of what you are proposing...say "MissOGnist" or "MissOGnest" maybe. Can't see how to fit the "y" in there for proper spelling.

"MissOgenyst" perhaps?

I'm a Mel Brooks fan, so mine is "Enormous Schwantzstucker" from Young Frankenstein, one of my deserted-island movies.

Good call! Fulfilling our civic responsibilities in these crazy times includes, perhaps foremost, regular and thorough disinfecting of the oral cavity and upper GI tract. Consult your local liquor store for expert guidance on this.

My current process is get to work, use hand sanitizer, moisturizer and then gloves.
Sounds like you'll have a great lawsuit against your manager.

You can have spaces in the SSID, you know. It's not like a URL, where space characters make everything a PIA.

One of my best friends bought one for his wife and one of the girls I've dated had one. Boring. Pretty, but boring.

The 993 is home, a nice run back from the mechanic this afternoon. It's a bit dirty so I have to get the hoses going now that we're above freezing and give it a nice hand wash.....

It just doesn't have the same fit and finish. Give me the X5 or X7 any day! After today and the hit I took I am BMW from here on out, the safety is impressive for sure!

No doubt that is why I have other cars...as far as a daily driver the safety, fun and utility can't be matched!
