Whence Your Moniker?

I hear that A spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down.

And I thought that the Tigger Song was from the original animated Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day movie which was adapted from the A.A. Milne series.

Cheers!

Trajan, despite being a deceased Roman emperor, you are obviously a scholar and a gentlemen...

Trajan, I salute you...

and does anyone remember Bedknobs and Broomsticks?

Tigga -- It's always a pleasure to help.

As for Bedknobs and Broomsticks -- I remember a movie of it. Didn't Angela Landsbury and Roddy McDowell star in this?

Cheers!

Yes, Angela Landsbury and Roddy McDowell did star in that movie, there was dancing under the sea, and a great bit when an attempted German invasion of southern Englan was foiled by a bunch of 'mobilised' empty suits of armour..

damn, that bed could go anywhere... I am so jealous of that.. I would love it if my bed could do that, I could lie there and say "bed, take me to wherever a bunch of supermodels are skinnydipping"

I am going to have a lie down

Hmm, a duplicate of my post crept in, bizarro.

Ah, mine is the wholly unfortunate cross between Marvin the Martian (Duck Dodgers in the 25th-and-a half century ring a bell?) and Ambassador Kosh, from B5.

I've stuck with it for a while now.... must be a couple of years or so

I guess I just like the notion of using it for everything, from my e-mail address to all my screen names, to my actual writing pseudonym. It's not quite as funky as Calvin Klein, but it'll do

A friend of mine plays the "Culture" in one of my PBEM games. As I oppose him I have just constructed the first "Bora Horza Gobuchul" class ship.
