OT: What does your screen name mean?

Mark is derived from the Roman god Mars, god of war, and this was the first name chosen by my parents. Fanara is my last name, it is Sicilian in origin.

I'm part Italian -way back in the 70's the polish and Italian jokes were flying. My English teacher was Polish so we would kid each other all the time. He nicknamed me pola short for polish and polar as my last name is baer - german spelling for Bear (I guess)
so you get pola bear
and 627... - well happy B-day to me
 
Parkavenuereef = I drive a Buick Park Avenue + I am obsessed with reefs... So Parkavenuereef! However, I am sad to say I traded my Parkavenue in for a Brand New ChEvY Cobalt LT!! So the name is half valid now...

Is that a baby Berner?

Very beautiful animals those BMD's... one of my favorites.
 
As beatiful as he looks, his personality is even better. You will never find a calmer more friendly dog. I have two kids, 3 and 9 months, and as big as he is, he is still incredibly gentle and patient with the youngins and their friends.

Another thing about Berners is they were bread to work on farms and busy markets so they tend to be fairly obedient even with a lot of distractions such as crowds or other animals. The difference between him and any other dog I have owned in that regard is striking, and I have met other BMD owners who have said the same thing. On the down side, he will lay outside and watch the deer eat my garden without even the slightest twitch to scare them away :D

wow what a great thread-

silkchaos- I love that & never knew that about you!

Since the start of my relationship w/ my wife(anne) I got intro'd to ferrets-I used to be lizardman having owned 2 lizards @ the time. But changed to alphaferret-
ferrets can sense fear and I had some until I realized I could be the alphaferret-
ruler of all ferrets
thus the name
(ferrets names kiwi,mr wiggles,O.T.(overtime),meka and teka)
 
The will to make..... hmmmm

Are you referencing the will and desire necessary to make a nice reef and keep a pet gator?
 
Belgian waffleman:

Well, I'm from Belgium... and waffles is our thing (besides chocolates and beer :p ).
I used to use just Waffleman, but the name was already taken. So I put the obvious in front of it.
Real first name is Nico.

Waffleman
 
Mine is a user name I acquired when roadrunner first came out like 8 years ago, and i use it for everything now, mainly for the ease of remembering it. The j is for my first name jason and straka1 is part of my last name with a 1 on the end. lol its pretty lame.

It seems you have to be polish to be in the club :lol:

Lol, in high school I had a Chinese exchange student try to convince me I was in denial that my true name was not Kam, but Kaminski or Kamerduski. He said that I had to have a "ski" at the end of my name to be a true Western NY citizen.
