35 years ago I was tagged with that name because my offfice/lab was in the bowels of the office building I worked in and nobody in the rest of the building knew quite what I did down there.
Come to think of it I don't know what I did down there either but it was something "Bird" related.
not by any means my friendQuote:

Roxie was a nickname I got at camp when I was a girl. I can remember the red-headed girl who gave it to me but to this day I have no idea how she came up with it. It doesn't have anything to do with my real name.
HVNY stands for Hudson Valley New York.
About 60 years ago my brother would tease me (in front of his friends) by calling me the first part because I would sneak into the pantry and take a quart outside and eat them. The second part and pic is because when you get old you start looking like this...lol
I have got a 1978 Ford Thunderbird, not many of these around.

My last name is Dahl. I've traveled around South East Asia, half the time I was at the beach or trekking within the tropical rain-forests! :) Love the tropical weather!
It was around the year 2000 and the Hobbit movies were popular at the time. I was on 4 websites and chose the name Hobby kinda like an Oman to Hobbit. There was a really nice guy doing avatars for free. I told him I wanted a ghost pirate ship in the light of the moon, it was great, wish I could find it today!
