what does cimorene mean?

Princess Cimorene is a character in one of my favourite books ever when I was a kid!

Enchanted Forest Chronicles - Wikipedia

 

[Martinius]

I changed mine after an absence. I used to be TheOtherHockeyMom , but that didn't really fit when my kids switched to skiing and the reference had kind of lost relevance. I was even Athansor, back at The Pizza Parlor. ..bonus points if you know where that comes from!

Athansor is a magical flying horse from the story "Winter's Tale". Bet your kids read it or watched the movie.

 

[Martinius]

This is it. Go for it.

Others beat me to it, but here goes. Martinius was my father's middle name. I doubt anyone else in the world right now knows this. He went with "Martin" instead, but usually just used the initial. I didn't know his true middle name until I looked up his birth record.

I also picked it because there is no famous historical person with that name.

The avatar is because Bullwinkle is an admirable character: honest, guileless, unassuming, means no one harm. A great cartoon Christian.

It's one of my favorite books, the movie was so-so. I hope my kids read it when they get older. A Soldier of the Great War is also a good read.

I'm guessing Montana or Wyoming?

Yep, Montana it is!

Montana, Montana, glory of the west!
Of all the states from coast to coast
You're easily the best.
Montana, Montana, skies are always blue,
M-O-N-T-A-N-A, Montana I love you!

The song sure doesn't attract me there, or that version of it anyway.

This is an improvement although a predictable western giddyup tune.
I like Montana since seeing the movie "River Runs Through It".

I liked it. It was only 35 seconds long.

Both of these Montana songs are from my youth. You'd like them a lot better if you heard me sing them in person.

I blubbered the whole way through "A River Runs Through It" the first time I watched. It was set in my hometown of Missoula though it was filmed mostly in Bozeman.

This is my favourite line, "The world is full of bastards, the number increasing rapidly the further one gets from Missoula, Montana".

you can probably send us a down/upload of you actually doing it, right?

I've never heard of Bullwinkle but he sounds friendly & I like his name!

 

[tadoflamb]

I've had the same user name since I've been on CF. I took it from a long time, good friend of my wife who was a bit of a wordsmith. Being that 'tad' means a small child and 'lamb' is another title used for our Lord, when I was in RCIA I realized how cool of a name I had.

Before selecting it as my user name I should have given it some thought as my fan club has figured out that it can easily be perverted to 'tadoflame' or my favourite, 'tadofflame'.

When I first joined CF we had what we called our 'CF dollies'. They were little characters you could dress up and use as an avatar. When we had the big change on CF and lost our dollies, I recreated mine in Lego. I like it so I've kept it. It also helps me remember who I am anytime I log into the forums.

One area code for the whole state! Wow!!!!

They used to joke about South Dakota when I lived there: Two time zones (Central and Mountain), one area code (605).

Pistol of Paul gets my vote.
Do you think it will pass the censor?

Sure, for short we'll just refer to you as pop
