Thank you, thank you so much guys for your kind words! It really warms my heart.

PM - you are making me feel like a celebrity with all your quizzes and photos!

This board is a labor of love and while it's not always smooth going, it is always gratifying - love all you guys and I also consider you my friends. Why else would I be talking so much as to rack up 10,000 posts?

[Prettymaid]

I figure 10,000 posts by the administrator is worth a week-long celebration. Besides, I'm having a blast!

Thanks Dreamer!

In the old Frey Fever thread, Eaglesvet posted this picture and asked Soda about her username
and we finally got the story...




I've always wondered how "Sodascouts" came to be your username...does this have something to do with it??
------------------------------------------------------------


(Soda's answer)

Nah, it's just coincidence! A nice coincidence.

I came up with my username in a rather mundane way. My parents had gotten AOL in 1995, and I was trying to come up with a unique name. I have a love for Coca-Cola (Coke Zero now is my new fave) and so I thought my username would be Soda. Only problem is - there was already a Soda, and I didn't want to be Soda93721. I tried things like SodaPop and such with no success. I decided in order to be unique I would have to stick something completely nonsensical on the end of Soda.

The movie To Kill a Mockingbird happened to be on the TV at the time. The lead character is named Scout. I decided that SodaScout sounded cool, and attempted to enter in that user name. The only problem is that I screwed up the registration, and when I tried to do it again, it told me "SodaScout" was already taken (by me, of course... ack!) So I added an "s" and got SodaScouts.

I used it everywhere, because I knew it would never be taken! Then, after I got cyberstalked, I realized using the same username everywhere may not be the best idea! It allows people to track you anywhere you go on the internet, so I'd advise against it.

But here, and everywhere else I posted before 2008, I went by SodaScouts. And here, SodaScouts I will remain!

Cute story! I'm obviously not that imaginative!

Let me thank you, too, Pm for heading up the celebration. Great job!
