Title: Bo D is tired!
Post by: Bo D on September 04, 2009, 10:59:32 AM
I've used this handle since the beginning. Is it time for a new name? A chance to cast off all the baggage?

I'm thing of - Olias of Sunhillow

......

Olias awoke from a dream and drank his soul into the ocean
that sailed past the brink of his window that long summer.

Then build the ship the Moorglade Mover
to sail a silence which nobody knows...

Olias shines as clear as his daughters' emotions retrace him.
(As one delivers always one will shine over you)

I've sailed and always will to parts of Sunhillow
(Ride on Olias remember your begotten father)


.........

Whadayathink?

Now to all of you who think that's name calling in the "moderated" area, I'll add this.  I've been posting with Bo D for a few years now and he's one of my favorite posters ever. 

I just had to rib him a bit because I'm in a good mood in anticipation of the 3 day weekend.  :biggrin:

My thought exactly though. Bo D does remind me of the essence of a "hippy"... peace, love and greater understanding of what lies beneath..or maybe he's the romanticized version of a hippy. ;D

At any rate I like it, but I'll always think of you as Bo D and that's not a bad thing.

You know though, a word popped into my mind immediately when I read that you are thinking of a change (Before I saw that you have something in mind) and that was "Denali" (did I spell it correctly?"

Sorry, I can't quote on my phone. The hippy comment was in reference to Locutus's post.

I dunno. . . I've thought of putting the horse out to pasture myself but found it disturbing for some reason. Perhaps you should await the departure of this melancholy before initiating such a drastic move. . .  :confused:  Ol' Hippie!  :wink: :smile:

I had the same misgivings with retiring MsMojo. I haven't been as attached to a psuedonym since then.

That would be - Unali.

I can't use that ... all of you are Unali.

No melancholy is involved here! Well ... maybe some relating in saying goodbye to Bo D.

No ... I think of it as an exciting new journey.

"the story of an alien race and their journey to a new world due to catastrophe. Olias, the title character, is the chosen architect of the glider Moorglade, which will be used to fly his people to their new home. Ranyart is the navigator for the glider, and QoQuaq is the leader who unites the four tribes of Sunhillow to partake in the exodus."

But if in honesty it takes just one dream
To evaluate the chance of choice
Dispelling the clear light
Invincible
Impregnable
For you For me
For you For me
Hear it
