[ghibli]

I'm a fan of the excellent Japanese animation from Ghibli Studio (e.g. Totoro, Laputa, Grave of the Fireflies). Here's an excerpt of what it means:

What exactly does Ghibli mean? Well, it's Italian, and it means "hot air blowing over the Sahara Desert". It was an Italian fighter model during WWI.

Graveyard of the Fireflies isn't a production of Studio Ghibli,

anway, my nick is my name, I prefer to write my name this way, rueyloon, 2 words together and no caps.

[ghibli]

Graveyard of the Fireflies isn't a production of Studio Ghibli,

You're quite right, bec. the one by Ghibli Studio is called "Grave(no "yard") of the Fireflies" LOLs Maybe you meant that Fireflies wasn't by the great director Hayao Miyazaki (this is correct), but it's definitely from Ghibli Studio, accordingly to several websites that I'd checked out, and according to the VCD packaging. Oops...OT liao...apologies! :embrass:

[Sion]

How did you get your "nick"?

First of all let me explain my name is not "nick".

When I met King of Jordan, he said, "Sion, Sion!"

I didn't know what he meant so I said. "Yes I am Sion." without realising that in Jordan they called a fool "Sion".

Need I say more? My nick reflects my real name. I'm none other than "Vivien Tan". :bsmilie:

[feryl]

this nick has been with me for 10 yrs - started using it on telnet games. it was adapted from a cartoon character from Visionaries (some of u probably remember it) named Ferald/Feral.

Most people don't pronounce or spell it correctly. I usually get ppl mistaking my nick for Furry, Ferly or Fei Lo ... :dunno:
