name calling

Saw this tag thing on friendster bulletins, so I thought, why do I have to wait to be tagged, ima do it anyhooz.

RULES: List all the names you were called by and the people who call you that. Tag at least 5 members of your contacts and give a comment on their site for them to know they've been tagged.

*Names that start with an x are read with a k. Owkei? Good.

1. Xaris- just about anyone who first met me between 1985-1998 and 2006-present; family and old friends.
