[kueluck]

Kueluck is my version of Kuluk, from Kuluk Bay on Adak Alaska. Adak, Alaska - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adak,_Alaska) When active duty in the USN while stationed @ NAS Adak this was my favorite place to sit and watch the puffins, eagles and otters. This was my paradise on earth.

I just came across Indigos online the other day, and fell in love! But I read they are expensive to take care of...:rolleyes:

Invisible Snake, you still didn't tell us your story!:p

[Selkielass]

A selkie is a mythological creature a bit like a mermaid, but instead of a fish/ person combo, they are seals who can take on human form and even live as a human.
Old username. I used to be quite a swimmer- lifeguard and water safety instructor.
selkie beat out water-rat.

[Invisible Snake]

I came up with this name while watching some old cheesy sci-fi/horror flick in which they took chameleon dna and infused it with a dog and that dog was able to change his colors and blend in with his surroundings thus making him invisible. It would be cool if there was a garter species that can dramatically change their colors to match their surroundings and/or moods. Also 90% of the time when I'm on this forum I'm on invisible :D

[Spencer711]

Last name and house number...lol

[kimbosaur]

My family and friends used to call me a T Rex: big head, short arms, thick legs, and quite the roar. Sexy, I know. ;)
