No, my eyes weren't always moving. I made that a month or two ago, and it was my AIM buddy icon for a while, which is conveniently the same size as the avatars here, so I just swapped this one in a night or two ago.

from the member formerly know as savage

ah heck I went ahead and changed it anyway. If ya wonder why it's posted above.

Re: The Origin of Your Screen Name: what it means

Yeah i kinda like the ring of "Grining Reaper" i am guessing that the grinning part refers to the smirk you do after getting into mischief, and reaper just sounds overall good w/ grinning because, well, we all know what reapers do! Oh yeah, ive been meaning to ask you vee_ess, what does yours mean, this is about the 25th post on this thread and your the one that started it, so what does your's mean? ???

Actually

Grinnin 'cause i've allways got a huge grin (that's why I post :D all the time). And reaper cause I have some dangerous hobbies. Beside's driving at unsafe speeds on a regular basis, I use to be an avid hunter, I was also a crew member on US Air Force Surveillance aircraft (did some war time in '99 in Kosove) and I also am a volunteer FireFighter in West Virginia (with hope's of going paid some day). Oh and no g on the end of grinnin' to highlight my country boy accent.

Re: The Origin of Your Screen Name: what it means

oh yeah...oops...me stupid! well i was also thinking that it has a nice ring to it because it sounded alot like the famous "Grim Reaper"...oh well...

Re: The Origin of Your Screen Name: what it means

Oh yhea well the "grim reaper" tie in is part of it. Just unusual I thought and fits me a bit better I think.

Re: The Origin of Your Screen Name: what it means

So, well, my initials are V and S and I have always had trouble actually getting a screenname, liking it and then remembering the password, and thus voiding those screennames.

So I started tryin for screenames at hotbot mail (deceased) and somehow came to vee (sounds like v) and same thing for ess (s), and at the same time came up with a password that I didn't forget.

Now, I have a screenname that I can explain to peeps and they say "Whoa! that's so cool" or something like that and one they can't figure out on their own too easily, and not too hard to get anywhere I go, and finally a password I can't forget.

My password is actually pretty ingenius if you ask me. The very thoughts that occur when I forget it are what remind me of what it is...Try figurin it out tho!
