Mint Julep...if you have ever been to the Kentucky Derby, you will understand Plain and simple, it reminds me of happy times.

Love your name! I'm from the south, so mint juleps are high on my list!

[Yzerbear19]

Mine is after my Steve Yzerman beanie bear. Yzerman played for the Detroit Red Wings. Back in 1999 Salvinos made a bunch of beanie baby like bears for different sports and players. Since it is a BEAR and his name is YzerMAN I changed the end and created Yzerbear. The 19 is the number that Stevie wore. Its been my screen name for probably 7-8 years now. Some of my family and friends even use it as a nickname. My sister's is screen name is ShannyBear after her Brendan Shanahan bear. Our one brother just calls us "The Bears."

A couple of pictures of my bear who travels with me as my vacation mascot:

My DD's inspired me Sydney was born 9/3 and Allison was born 6/7 , I thought it was a pretty good username until I started going to DIS CON and DIS meets and having to introduce myself that way was a little awkward

[gris gris]

Mine is in my sig - I'm a big Jimmy Buffett fan, and one of my favorite songs is Love & Luck, "a little gris gris keeps you safe from harm". It's a good luck charm. I wonder how people say my username though when they see it - the "s" is silent, it's said "gree gree". I bet some people think it's "griz griz" or something like that. I use gris gris wherever I go
