Where does the title come from under your name?Such as mine says " Constraint Violating Yak Guru ".I have no idea where that came from and I'm unsure if it's accurate? "Violating Yak"? Who did or what did I violate?"Guru" I don't think so. "Constraint"? From what the dictionary meaning should I be worried I'm repressing my feelings and seek professional help? Main Entry: con·straint Pronunciation: \k?n-'strant\ Function: noun Etymology: Middle English, from Middle French constrainte, from constraindre Date: 15th century 1 a: the act of constraining b: the state of being checked, restricted, or compelled to avoid or perform some action <the constraint and monotony of a monastic life — Matthew Arnold> c: a constraining condition, agency, or force : check <put legal constraints on the board's activities>2 a: repression of one's own feelings, behavior, or actions b: a sense of being CardGunner |

Word of caution, cardgunner: I've observed that people who request a custom title are not always happy with the one chosen for them. On the other hand a lot of good posts will bring respect to any title. btw, does anyone else have trouble understanding Brett's posts? I have the same trouble with Zippy the Pinhead comics - I'm sure it's me. (no offense, Brett, you've earned my respect a long time ago )Be One with the OptimizerTG |
