Everything I am
naughtykittykat was too long so it became Nortikittykat and is always getting shortened to NKK which is cool....

My first forum I joined I used the name "Bogantastic" when my partner used to call herself Annatastic all the time. This got shortened in person to Bogan or sometimes Boges, and when she dumped me I got the admins to take the tastic off the end. I don't like to think of Bogan as a dirty word, I love my metal, flannos and ugg boots as much as the next bogan but we don't all have to be dole bludging scum (although some of us have that as a life choice).

Mel... It's my name... well a shortened version of it anyway...
Dunno why I didn't just use "ricecooker" here, which is what I use most other places... been using that one since I first got on the net back in about '97...

Well, I'm another Mick and I used to have pet rats years ago (but not the PEW* riding the scooter). I was a member of a Oz-based Yahoo-hosted rat forum, but it folded at around the same time I got into motorbikes. Around that time I was researching buying a GPX250, found the old KSRC Yahoo forum and joined it with the ID I used on the rat Yahoo forum. Couldn't be arsed changing it

Of course not, noone's ever actualy SEEN you on a motorbike within the last 3 years
Mick Dundee, was a regular at a pub in Geelong when the movie came out, surname is markedly close to Dundee so they used to call me Croc, used the mick dundee on most forums. First name is Michael but prefer Mick.
