Okay guys/gals I will tell you my real nickname is twoshadows and I use it on ebay as twoshadows69. Now crystalk came by accident and after I had a phone call or two asking for Cry Stalk I decided it was pretty unique so it stuck but...? When I entered the world of the computer, knowing very little, I just followed my wife's lead and for the most part used her accounts for everything. So when folks, I dealt with, found out I was really a Terry they just assumed Cry Stalk had something to do with the great outdoors and lived with that. Well, as much as I hate to fess up my wife's name is Crystal K. so I guess I stole her identity and being so unique I kept it as I had already used it to sign on to tons of places on the internet! Now twoshadows is a different story and that would probably take private mail as it is a much longer story and really does mean a lot to me and my beliefs. Now you have it, well most of it!

My ebay username is thefred (with a 2 since there's at least two other "thefred"s). I was given this nickname at Scout Camp in '98 when I survived a tornado which wiped out my truck, tent, bunk, and about 50K trees on the reservation. Two people died in the area. I was lucky and survived by dodging from tree to tree, staying in the lee of the trunks while the funnel took out the trees around me. Although slightly injured, I was promoted on the spot to demigod status and given the honorific, "The Fred".

Hi All, Just saw the post that Mike started and since Kyra was curious... My name came about trying to help a friend think of a name for email purposes I came up with Millicent..changed to Milascent..her real name is Millie..I liked it and she doesn't use it any more so..I changed it again to Mila_cent added the 'cent' for the coin forum. My real name is Sylvia,  which I hate, but my friends call me Sil. Which I like better.

One of many species of tropical fish I used to breed. started out using kuhli_loach on Yahoo and ebay, but quickly realized it was too much typing, so I dropped the loach, and just stuck with kuhli. That is what I am everywhere I go, now.

Mine is pretty boring. Susan is my first name. Lynn is my middle name. The 9 is there because when I went to set up my email, this number was assigned as the next one available. This is my ID on all forums.

Well, I'll be darned, I would have sworn that you had been named "Walking Eagle" after the last Buffalo hunt. Live and learn!

Just what are you trying to say Old Dan, with the Walking Eagle, that Terry's to full of ...aaah... stuff to fly ?
PS . I'd like to here the twoshadows tale also. I have a feeling that we believe in alot of the same things. Spiritually speaking.

Old Dan has been giving me a hard time ever since he learned I would be on the Kansas quarter or Buffalo nickel. It just so happened I was stalking (crawling between the buffalo and the horizon) the very animal they were photographing for design process. We are all but certain, if I wasn't actually right behind the buffalo, that I will be a small blip out there somewhere. I am sure everyone will notice me right off the bat but Old Dan would probably think that blip is a buffalo chip so he is going to have to be convinced! I am sure there will be more to this story very shortly!

You know Terry, I think I see you on the Buffalo nickel! Either that or it's an "extra" stalk of wheat....  Rachel [:p]
