My TOTV name stems from my being a proud alumni of the New York Skyliners Drum & Bugle Corps which was formed when WWII ended in 1945. I was a brass playing active member during the 1978 & 1979 marching seasons. Being just one of the guys amongst literally thousands that proudly wore the red and black uniform over their 67 year history, I adopted the name skyguy79. And I'll bet some of you thought that I really flew around the sky barking while wearing tights and a cape!

Mine is my first name-Lynne with 2 initials from my last name LaFrance- lf. I was using this screename for quite awhile when someone repeated it back to me as two words, Lynn elf. I had never thought of it that way before but thought it was cute. So I've gone by Lynn elf for a long time now

Default My TOTV name

Al - short for Allan
jet - my favorite NFL team
met - my favorite MLB team

Did I really have to explain! I guess Al was the mystery but don't ever forget how to spell my real full name. Some people in my office call me 2As 2Ls just to make sure I'm happy.

I love coffee. I had this sign on for the Cruise Critic message board first and I use it for this message board too.

My screen name is in memorial to my best friend who was killed during the Vietnam era.

That's classified. No, just parts of names of various relatives who have since changed their names.

Like Randi-- Ran.

Like Melissa-- Mel.

Like Todd-- Tod.

Just call me Ranmeltod.

My screen name is what my beloved grandmother called me. And this place makes me feel like the carefree child I was when I knew her.
