It's always sounded like a kind of parrot food to me.avanutria wrote:I've been given some unexpected spellings by other folks, such as avanturia and aventura. And in case anyone is wondering, the vowel of the first syllable is pronounced like the A in hat and not like the a in hate. The emphasis is on the nut syllable, with good reason.
That's why I stick to "Beth."

Just pay no mind if I start calling you Gardner Muskrat.

- Tell us something.: I used to be a regular then I took up the bassoon. Bassoons don't have a lot of chiff. Not really, I have always been a drummer, and my C&F years were when I was a little tired of the drums. Now I'm back playing drums. I mist the C&F years, though.

Favorite Chiff & Fipple names.
I haven't been in for a bit, and I am so surprised anyone would have noticed me after not being active in here for so long, even if it's just my name you noticed. Thanks for the nod!
Reading your list, I'd love to know the stories behind folks' names. I wish the profile included a place for that. Would be a fun read.
And FJohnSharp, I could read a few meanings into your name. Is that F for Fred, a true first name you hate like...hmmm...Flagellon? Or is John Sharp someone you don't like, and you're saying to everyone that, well...that you don't like him...just "F--- John Sharp!"?
I'll tell you the story of Katie. I had a dream of this girl, Katie, standing by her garden gate. She was living long ago in the old times. She had long flowing red hair and was a lovely girl in this long dress. The morning sun was shining on her, and her red hair just glowed. Hey, I was dreaming this drivel, so don't hold me responsible! Every morning and evening she would stand by her garden gate and watch the guys pass by on their way to the village or the fields. She was dreaming about meeting her soul mate, "the" one. She didn't know that she would never meet her soul mate because fate would keep them from ever meeting. She didn't know that one of those plain, simple, honest men she saw every day would have been the perfect man who would have loved her all her days with all his heart...if only she would not have been so blind to him as he passed her gate. One smile or glance his way would have changed her lonely world. So Katie by the gate was stuck in my mind when I woke up, that image of her standing there pining away. I wish I could paint. I'd paint it. I garden, and I'd love to just have the garden I dreamed behind her! lol
It just sounded like a good name for an Irish flute tune, and I was new to computers. I needed a name for email, and I stuck that in there. I've used it ever since. Yeah, it's a long name to type, but people don't forget it either.

Just because I use my real name I'm not included. Fine. I can live cheerfully with that!

He jested, quaff'd and swore."
They cut me down and I leapt up high
I am the life that'll never, never die.
I'll live in you if you'll live in me -
I am the lord of the dance, said he!
