It's a Rise Against song.

I had an interest in doors and hardware since middle school were I learned about them but only did small things like make sure screws were tight, by time I reached high school I was adjusting door speed and making sure the closer is secured to door and frame. teachers would ask me what to do for varius problems (such as suddenly stopped closing door and things) so word got around then some would call me the door doctor.

yea, I actaully cared about the security of the building and fixing the doors. the custodians on other hand, they were either drinking coffee, socializing or reading the paper or waited until the doors fell off their hinges before they would even notice theres a problem. the best way to fix doors is to do preventative maintenance. that means like every month or so (depending on how often door was used) and check to make sure screws are tight and check for wear on hinges.

by last 2 years of high school I kinda took over in the door department and had 2 schools to fix, the county's technical school (custodians there were soooo novice it took them 6 hours to figure out how to remove the arm from a door closer<<thats true believe it or not!) and the local school district's high school. when custodians and people realized that I was better at fixing things then the custodians they didnt really care much about what I did as long as what I did makes door pass the nj state uniform building codes for school egress (exit) and ADA doors.

I truely miss the teacher that allowed me to fix them, best teacher I have had in school, (I think he believed in the montissori method (learning by doing) I would visit the schools I have worked on accept one thing, im not a parent or a student anymore (graduated in 2002). this state made it a pain in the butt to even visit so I guess I only have is just the websites from both places and if someone uploads a video to youtube or a pic of the places to flickr.

Nairin is the name of my character.

She's a raven.

Y'know, I could just put a drawing here:

I thought of the nickname "Mightyzebra" one day when I was thinking of a good nickname on another site. Zebras are my favourite animals and I love thinking about myself as a mighty, powerful zebra mare on the savannah. I've been using it a lot on various sites.

It's from the book "The Vally of Horses" the secound book in the Earth's Children series sequal to "The Clan of the Cave Bear" I liked the name alot because it was unusual and it sounded like something I would make up, it doesn't sound to cheesy like alot of the names I would think up would be, but it's still unique.

When I was really little, my dad called me an "Idaho rose". For a couple of years after that, whenever someone asked what my name was, I would say my full name and add "an Idaho rose" at the end. I honestly believed that "Idaho rose" was part of my name. Now I use it as a username wherever I go online.

I am an Alternative character.

I do things the Alternative way.

Eller is a folksy German word for elder. I have that name because of the magical implications of that plant. Traditionally, it's a holy plant. I don't believe in magic, but my grandma did, and she used to call me Eller because she said I was touched by the fey anyway... (Good way to explain autism/AS, eh?) And the name sort of stuck...

it's what I call cats.

It's just a name from a character in my writings.

A 5 year old word I created through the anagram Vorzac Protex

I was LadyCass way back when; that was a character in a story I had written a few years ago.

The one now is simply because I like both the words and what they mean; I like rain and I like music, specifically certain songs. Hence, RainSong.

My user name is basically my AOL Instant Messenger name that I use on most forums I join. On this forums IRC channel I go by the name of YeppBoy which I got from my Samsung Yepp T9 as you can see by my avatar.

The straightforward origin is from Greek mythos. It translates to "to destroy". Alternatively it pops up in Christianity as either Apollyon or Abaddon.

It started as a running joke between my best friend and I; he was telling me about when he was an angsty pre-teen (before we met) and attempted to conjure Abaddon. I teased him and said "Well here I am, what are your other two wishes?!" I've used it online ever since, since It's actually pretty appropriate; what with me being disaster prone and occasionally explosive.

It has nothing to do with the craptastic book.
