What a great bunch of names. My goodness, if burlesque ever truly makes a comeback, I think we have a whole stage full here, all ready to bump and grind their way around the circuit.

Floridagal, your name is wonderful. Last winter I put you in one of the Groundhog's Day episodes with your other pet, Snoopy Paerdegat. But Chocolate Drop Wallace needs to be in the show that I refer to in the first paragraph in this post.

Oh Brightspot, thank you for having enough faith in me to think that I could actually write beyond this vignette-style thing that I had going here. But I don't think I can. I could drive myself and everybody else completely nuts. I would gain a bunch of weight. My flower gardens would turn into weedy messes. My Knockout roses would have to go it alone. (They can do that, but they treat me better if I chop their heads off once in awhile.) And I would never get to see my friends that I can actually see. And Mr. Boomer would miss me. But thanks anyway, Bright.

But for now, I cannot get my groove back anyway. -- Maybe when the snow flies once more, but I hope I am in Florida by then.

I would love it if people here would include a vignette with their soap opera names. It would be fun.

Now, I am going to go start a thread on a subject that I want to learn more about and I think you all can teach me some things. It's about regional language.
