I love Saffron but am a guy, so I adapted the title of her first episode. The actual funny part is when people's brains automatically put in the "s" that they "know" should be there. For a confirmed hetro male, I sure deal with a lot of gender confusion on this board. I never changed it because the exchanges with confused people are inevitably high-larious. For me. They just get embarassed most of the time.
Cynicism is the smoke that rises from the ashes of burned out dreams.

Mis-typed 'reflexive'.
Thought "Rel Fexive - cool Star Wars name!"
Used it as a username ever since.

I know the secret.

Mine I chose from the 1929 Expressionist film:
The Cabinet of Dr Caligari although of course most folks think it's from Angel and the episode where he sleeps in alot and has dreams of Darla.
But it isn't.
In the film, The Dr has a Sleepwalker or Somnambulist who he has trained to rise up and wonder about attacking people and killing them... sorta. Anyway I love the film for it's stylised look. It's one of my favourite Silent films.
It's derived from Latin: Somnus - to sleep Ambulat - to walk...
Simple really :)
Cheers

Somnambulist

Well Uncharted came as an homage to Farscape...the fandom from whence I came. The Outlaw part was just something Western and Firefly-ish. :)

River: "So we'll integrate non-progressional evolution theory with God's creation of Eden. Eleven inherent metaphoric parallels already there. Eleven. Important number. Prime number. One goes into the house of eleven eleven times, but always comes out one. Noah's ark is a problem."

This is so embarrassing! Everyone has reasons – Yet I have not a one!!
It could easily have been Blancmange or Turnip or Hirsute (only I'd never spell it right twice) or Codswallop or Herpes (actually yes, I like Herpes, not the actual infection of course, you understand) or Cardsharp or pretty much any word I liked .... I’m capricious like that …

Spinland Studios is the now-dormant graphic arts studio I founded that, for a couple of lean years, was my primary source of income. I still like the name.

I don't know what your problem is, but I bet it's hard to pronounce.

It means "Contractor".
(has historic connotations of mercenary?)
Which is kinda what I am, instead of selling my soul to a single cab company, I paid for all my licenses and permits out of my own pocket, and have the little stick-on magnetic plates for the city permits.
I can drive any cab, for any company, anywhere in this state, any time I want, so long as they agree to the terms of the days contract and have a free cab available.
These days tho, thinkin about retiring because the price of fuel has driven the profit right out of what I do... I kid you not, some fast food employees now make more take-home pay than I do.
Gee, thanks for supporting independant businessmen (with a 46% tax rate!) unca sam!

A quote from Flora Thompson's Lark Rise at the beginning of John Crowley's book Little, Big (which is amazing).
---A little later, remembering man's earthly origin, "dust thou art, and to dust thou shalt return," they liked to fancy themselves bubbles of earth. When alone in the fields with no one to see them, they would hop, skip, and jump, touching the ground as lightly as possible and crying, "We are bubbles of earth! Bubbles of earth! Bubbles of earth!"---
It makes me well up all hopeful and sad at the same time, and nobody ever seems to have it on other boards. (Once someone saw it & knew right away what it was from... he was so excited to find someone who'd read Little, Big, we became fast friends right there & then.)
