Time again for What does your forum name mean?

[Maggy]

Maggy means:

My second name is Margareta - often called Maggan as a nick in Sweden.

So I took the first part of it, Magg, and added the first letter in my last name, which is Y = Maggy!

My hubby teaches the bagpipe for a living and I am his gal

You're kidding, right?

Maybe not. Someone has to teach the bagpipes! One of my uncles was 100% Scottish and when he died (too early) we had a full bagpipe funeral for him.

Guess what my name means!

Can you imagine the noises that must come from bagpipe beginners? Even when played well, bagpipes are marginally annoying.

Anyway, it's not every day that someone casually drops the phrase, "my husband teaches bagpipes."

Let me guess...you are some person named Liam's aunt. Who is Liam? Is Liam nice? What does Liam do for a living? Does Liam like bagpipes?

My name comes from my 2 childrens initials-

[Bug]

Bug (as in Volkeswagon)
Blu (as in the color Blue)
98 (as in 1998)

I am not a car person ~ buttttt when they came out with the prototype Bugs I was in heaven. I spent most my younger life driving around with my teenage Aunts and Uncles who all had Beetle Bugs. We would play Punch Buggy until our (or at least my) arms were black and blue. I think they only played because it was an acceptable way to beat on me! Anyway, I put my name on the list and bought one the first year they were made. This is also the first new car I ever bought. I still have the picture they took of me sitting in my car before I took it off the lot. I was smiling from ear to ear. Since then I've had kids and car seats just don't fit well, so I had to trade it in for the SUV. I will never forget how happy it made me to drive that car. It was like getting a piece of my childhood back. Anyway, that's my BUGBLU98 story.

XOXO

Actually, I find bagpipes extremely annoying, even when played well. They are just too darned loud.

Liam is eight, so all he does is live a happy childlike life. You sure can be "bracing," can't you?

There's a story about how the Scots got the bagpipes.

The Irish gave the Scots the bagpipes, but the Scots didn't get the joke and have since been playing them as if they were a serious instrument.

Actually, I've been to funerals where pipes have been played---sometimes just a single piper---that have been deeply affecting. Play on, piper.

I'm not feeling well today...so there really is nothing bracing about me. I'm actually kind of flat. Sorry if I came across as rude. I didn't mean to be.

I adore the bagpipes Pipergal...We are very Irish and Scottish. Say thank you to your hubby for keeping up with tradition, and be proud that you are his wife!

Ahh, this thread is back. Ok, well mine is a slightly long and boring.
I'm a vegan (an extremely strict vegatarian) and I bicycled across the US in 1996. I was camping with another vegatarian x-country bicyclist couple I met in Oregon and they seen me cookin up some Rice-a-roni on my tiny backpacking stove for dinner as we were camping... and there were some good hearted comments that I shouldn't be eating that crap for the type of activity we were engaged in daily. So, he called me Dave-a-roni. I biked with them on and off through some states for a week or two more and that's what stuck. Kind of like a "trail name" given to you when you backpack the Appalachian Trail"
I use it all the time and we're still friends to this day.

*For some reason, now that I think about it, I don't think I have eaten it since
