Don't change your username unless it's essential, but for the record the following have changed.

cubanallstar --> John Cooke

I must agree with our Trumpeting friend.  Uptowngirl had class, a certain je ne sais quoi.  The ladies (esp Magpie) loved it.
Uptownguru?  Pah, sounds like an ego swelling to the verge of bursting.  Some pusillanimous attempt to hide the inner workings of a fevered mind.

Nay!  A descent into the realms of the common.  You have shed the name that made you stand out and have fallen into the cess pool of the common.  Shame on you.   :P

That word was bugging me. Pusillanimous. I was sure I had seen it before recently. Sure enough, here its was..

I was going to say its generally a bad idea to expose your private account usernames on forums but clocked the fact that it was from a 2003 registration and you'd have likely graduated by now, so it didn't matter.

Haha, yeah my account got deleted just after graduation, but never got around to thinking of a better username. To be honest my current effort is lame, but at least it is simple.

First is close (although I have phone browsers save my login details so don't need to enter them each time).

It's because I touch-your your using an English keyboard layout and have got fed up correcting my login using discourage keyboards over the last few weeks and figured I'd remove that headache now ago it won't happen when abroad again.

@tommytwotone : believe it our our not I forgot to bring a live USB Linux first with me so have had to use M$ desktops (in Spanish) in the hotel. won't make that mistake again.
