>We are two West Highland White terriers who, regrettably, do not travel well, but our parents do.<

I am American Italian, speak it and love any name Italian, although my first name is not! So it means, hello Deb, and that's me, Debbie!

In 1995 when preparing for our first trip to europe, my daughter and I needed to setup an email account for the lst time.

We tried our names, pet names, mother's name, family name, fun names, dog's name and they were all taken soooooooo . . . . we decided we were two gals going to europe, therefore we were going to be eurogals and it was available.

That's my story and I'm sticking with it.

OOPS - I guess I posted a response to this question two years ago.

Same reason.

I think our screen name (mine/hubby's) says it all. WE actually LOVE to bike, but that was taken!

We are putting our spinning skills to good use, and departing Oct 15th (next month)for Florence Italy, then picking up a bike tour, cycling thru Tuscany (for 6 days) will arrive in Rome, and stay there for 3 days before we return to NC! Can't wait!!

I tried many screen names and everyone I chose had been taken. I was getting frustrated and thought fate had decided that I chose nametaken--no problem.

I'm a hiking guide in the Alps (alpenwild.com) and I'm always on the lookout for chamois in the mountains. They can climb 1000m in just 15 minutes. Amazing.

Just because I am a gypsy. Don't need much, just a place to lay down, shower, and rest. And a maiden, and a fair one at that!!

I am a huge fan of Clint Eastwood and if you have seen the Sergio Leone films "A Fist Full of Dollars" & "For A Few Dollars More" the above is his characters name.
In Eastwood's next film, "The Good, The Bad & The Ugly" his character is Blondie but unfortunately for me, time has seen me look more like Silver or Whitie.
My mobile phone ringtone is the theme tune from "The Good, The Bad ........." by Hugo Montenegro and it is also the theme tune to a favourite Aussie radio program of mine called "The Coodabeens" - long story poorly told, sorry!!

I love traipsing about in my boots.

I'm from Canada and I've been told that I pronounce the word 'about' funny, so perhaps I should've made my screen name 'traipsingaboot'?

My favorite artist is Marcel Duchamp but Duchamp was taken on AOL. While toying with variations I hit the send button too quickly.
