Ike is now...Ike

Folks, with Thunder’s help, I’m changing my name to Ike. It’s easier to remember and type than ik*****, and I really don’t want to ****** anymore.

I like the name, but Ike is of no real significance to me. I’ve been to Eisenhower’s birthplace in Kansas. He might be the last Republican I would have voted for (if Stevenson wasn’t on the ballot.) I like Ike and Mike’s, but I’d rather have a Good and Plenty, or a Hot Tamale. Ike Turner was a really big dick to Tina, so maybe that’s a link.

Thanks for clarifying. I saw “Moderator” under your new name in another thread and I wondered how I missed meeting you :D

>Ike Turner was a really big dick to Tina, so maybe that’s a link.
:chuckle:

I always thought ‘Ike’ in my head when I read your posts, so it’s no different to me. :up:

This is an advance to be applauded.

Now. How the heck did you come up with anything as unpronounceable “****” in the first place??

I like IKE……………….isn’t that the theme he ran on for president

What brings to my mind first, when I think of the name “Ike” is….mmmm… southpark and that little poor bugger that gets kicked all the time. That just shows on what level of maturity I am, I guess.

Good call, by the way. It was getting kinda annoying to always copy-paste your name into responses… :D

You’re right Dino. It was I like Ike. I think they made that into a jingle that was in the first political TV commerical.

And Avocet, the name means: I-keep-‘em-guessin’. It kind of fits for the kind of work I do, where too much predictability can be hazardous. But lately I’m on a personal campaign to be more confident and assert myself more, and ik**** infers a sort of reclusiveness I really don’t want to convey any longer.

I always copied and pasted your former name into my posts, when addressing you :-Y

Yeah, I never could remember how to spell that name. It would make a good license plate. Nobody would be able to remember that one!

Created with the same stooopid logic that lead me to pick iamru…I am (getting a bigger dick) are you?
