    I go to church pretty regularly and I don't drink or smoke or have any fun at all whatsoever. I drive a lot and I'm unbelievably stuck up and self-righteous, as my ever-shrinking circle of friends will tell you. Also the Holy Rollers was the team the Reverend Will B. Dunn in the Kudzu comic strip played for. Funny strip, although I've lost track of it over the years.

    I hope someday to pull into the church parking lot and paraphrase Dom DeLuise: "Of course I'm doing the work of the Lord. In a Ferrari, I can just do it faster."

    Had to shorten it, I remember going to the SS# office as a child & presenting my birth certificate, I got a blank stare from the clerk. I think the long name idea came from one of my mom's drinking friends.

    ... mine came from a time when I was working several security details. One of the clients we were working with made the statement that she felt " safe for now " ... which stuck in my mind.

    I have used it across several different forums and found it helpful to maintain the same name.

    I have thought about changing it to "MVS", but then I would have to start all over again... LOL
