How did you come up with your screen name?

I signed up here at a time when my daughter's favorite show was Strawberry Shortcake. Raspberry Torte is the most awkward out of all of them. And Strawberry Shortcake land is like this technicolor happy land where nothing bad ever happens, except for maybe a gopher eating a flower.

You?

Ripose comes from the word repose which means to be laid back, care free, and at peace with the world (basically).

My favourite animation of all time is The Little Mermaid...I actually want to be a mermaid. And my birthday is on the 5th of Jan 1985 so 5 is a number that I like. Usually when I choose mermaid5 as a username it is taken so I just popped in a bunch of fives there

My name is Regina. When I went to visit one of my cousins years ago, his best friend kept calling me Gina-Re. It was funny, but I kind of liked it. So there you are ladies and gentlemen!

I've been a fan of U2 since the mid 80s and Vertigo was a good descriptor of my instability. Hence vertigo.

My username is Irish for seashore. I found it from a song by Maire Brennan. At the time I was living in Florida, so it made more sense.

Mine came from a movie line. this guy is leading a double life and when he gets caught he says "wait a minute, who am I here?"

I've used it as a screen name for years because I feel like I must behave differently depending on the situation

I'm always searching for something. Happiness, stability, meaning, the next great adventure... I can never seem to be content where I am. Always seeking.

And a psychic once told me that my purpose in life was to be eternally learning, seeking, trying to figure it all out. Sounds about right.

My first bike was red.

I wish my parents would have kept it. It was a nice bike. I'd love riding a bike right now. I could bicycle myself into town.

Mine is kind of easy, fishing is my thing.
It is my peace of mind and soooo much fun.
I can put all my racing thoughts to rest for a while.
Sometimes I wish I picked something more clever like some of you have
but it is right to the point.
After my kids and my GF fishing is really my life.
