Well, I'm a big Doctor Who fan. I wasn't sure if anyone was using "Doctor" or "The Doctor", so I came up with "I am the Doctor", figured no one was using that one yet.

H K R are my initials so I chose to use them as my nickname here. Now I regret it. I would like to have a better nickname, but I don't want to re-register. :)

Edit: Luke changed my name to Cressida as I wanted. I'm a huge Shakespeare lover and Cressida is from his play Troilus and Cressida. In that play Cressida is a young and beautiful Trojan woman. :)

With a DVD collection exceeding 1,600 titles and a CD collection of over 2500 titles, I was told by my kids and grandkids that I was a regular "junkie" for movies and music. So in the music groups I am registered as "VinylJunkie" and in my movie groups like here and DVD Easter Eggs I use the name "DVDJunkie".

Not very complicated, just as simple as that.

By the way, I just absolutely enjoy this site. Makes for good reading most of the time. Sometimes I am enjoying it so much I forget to post a reply where i feel that I should. Not to worry, I am always around and like a good "grandpa" I watch over all my kids.

^-^

I have no idea why I decided on "Key." Maybe I was listening to "Key of the Twilight" from the .hack//SIGN OST or something.
Wherever. Whatever. Have a nice day.

*BUMP!*

I'm usually Sunset Girl for a couple of reasons:

Oddly enough, I don't ever want to be confused for a guy. Probably because I really enjoy being a girl, LOL!

I've been working on and off on on an original story with my own characters. I keep changing the title, but it's currently entitled "Amber Sunset." The main character is Amber, AKA Sunset Girl. Her sister(?) is Amethyst, AKA Twilight Girl. Here's a gif file of them I made:

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v248/ ... amgifs.gif">

Aw, aren't they cute?

Here's a little animated avatar of Amber I created that I occasionally use:

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v248/ ... rblinx.gif">

Unfortunately, I haven't worked on it quickly enough. I've had these characters in my head for like eight years now! And now all this red-headed shoujo-type stuff is popular. I'm simultaneously happy and annoyed with Disney's W.i.t.c.h. because of this. I swear, they stole the ideas right out of my head, man! And if I ever get this out, I'm sure I'll be accused of copying them.

Since you're an anime fan, I always assumed that you were a fan of Key the Metal Idol!

Haha, yknow... someone on this forum PMed me once with the same assumption. XD

Oddly enough, I've never even seen Key the Metal Idol. I'm more a manga reader--I don't watch much anime (amazingly)! :p

I haven't seen that one, either, but I remember being aware of the title during my early days of anime fandom. I always wanted to see it but didn't want to spend $30 on a VHS at the time. I'm sure it's out on DVD now, and may be worth looking into.

When it comes to choosing either anime or manga, I guess it depends on the particular title. For example, Video Girl Ai is my all-time favorite manga, but I didn't care much for the anime. And I love how the artwork and story are more detailed in the manga version of Fushigi Yuugi than the anime, but I still love the anime (I just don't have many of the books yet). On the other hand, I have a hard time getting into the Sailor Moon manga, but I still love the anime.

But that's just me.

Just in case anybody cares, the name in my screenname is the name of one of the best comedy writers in the history of cinema. :)

He created The Little Rascals, Laurel and Hardy, Thelma Todd & Zazu Pitts/Patsy Kelly (I prefer Zazu Pitts, hands down), Harold Lloyd, etc.

Little Red Henski is a character that appeared in one of the Alice Comedys.

I've seen some of Key. It's a pretty cool updated twist on the old Pinocchio story. I also prefer the Sailor Moon anime to the manga. I also can't stand the English Sailor Moon dub.

I'm almost ashamed to admit I feel an attachment to the DiC version of the dub, but it's what got me started in anime. But as for the later Cloverway episodes, they are so bad that I can't even stand to watch them like that. I always turn on the Japanese voices and the English subs when I watch 'em!
