    I have been using this name online for at least five/six years. The Jelli part has nothing to do with PJ...I always thought that we are all part of some cosmic soup, astral plane of some sort -held by some sub-concious thread, all of us who are open to it - reaching with our souls into it, touching each other in some form and constructively using it here on earth. Maybe I misconstrued Jung...lol

    enharmonicenharmonic Posts: 1,926
    I chose enharmonic because it is a musical term. An enharmonic note has two names. For instance, C sharp is also D flat. I also took it to remind me that most of today's music...like the note that shres two names, is disposable regurgitation of music that wasn't very good to begin with. It encourages me to stay focused on crafting my own music while staying true to my own ideas of what my sound should be. It's easy to listen to the radio, or a popular band, and ape what they do. We're easily in the 3rd generation of bands who have done that just since the 90s. The hard part is finding your own voice, and sticking to it long enough to create something worth listening to.

    Most don't, but the industry only wants the apes right now, so instead of pumping gas for a living (as 90% of todays so-called "musicians" should be), we get genre's like "nu-metal" and whatever else you want to call a "style" that is essentially a poor attempt at something that wa done much better when it was real.

    So that's hw I ended up with my name.

    Fetus Jr.Fetus Jr. Posts: 26
    Well, I've had people comment on here about the strangeness of my name. Fetus was actualyl a nickname my dad had when he younger, around his later teens and twenties. My mom's brothers gave it to him for some reason, don't know why he got it. When they were divorced, he wasn't around them anymore, so the name kind of died. I guess I decided to bring it back? Contrary to what may seem obvious it has nothing to do with my opinions on the pro-life/pro-choice debates.

    So, there ya have it. This is the only board I've used this name on, so this board should feel special! ;)
    I traded magic for fact...then I traded back.

    It's one of the most badass songs ever written...

    Tool - Third Eye

    Dreaming of that face again.
    It's bright and blue and shimmering.
    Grinning wide
    And comforting me with it's three warm and wild eyes.

    On my back and tumbling
    Down that hole and back again
    Rising up
    And wiping the webs and the dew from my withered eye.

    In... Out... In... Out... In... Out...

    A child's rhyme stuck in my head.
    It said that life is but a dream.
    I've spent so many years in question
    to find I've known this all along.

    "So good to see you.
    I've missed you so much.
    So glad it's over.
    I've missed you so much
    Came out to watch you play.
    Why are you running?"

    Shroud-ing all the ground around me
    Is this holy crow above me.
    Black as holes within a memory
    And blue as our new second sun.
    I stick my hand into his shadow
    To pull the pieces from the sand.
    Which I attempt to reassemble
    To see just who I might have been.
    I do not recognize the vessel,
    But the eyes seem so familiar.
    Like phosphorescent desert buttons
    Singing one familiar song...

    "So good to see you.
    I've missed you so much.
    So glad it's over.
    I've missed you so much.
    Came out to watch you play.
    Why are you running away?"

    Prying open my third eye.
    So good to see you once again.
    I thought that you were hiding.
    And you thought that I had run away.
    Chasing the tail of dogma.
    I opened my eye and there we were.

    So good to see you once again
    I thought that you were hiding from me.
    And you thought that I had run away.
    Chasing a trail of smoke and reason.

    Prying open my third eye.

    I saw an picture of an old woman on some russian page and the title said Babochska. Don't really know why since the real word for grandma (which i think it means) is Babuchska.

    I thought it sounded great so I took it, it's also nice when russian people starts to talk to me in russian :)

    It's the name of one of my favorite books and just and interesting idea that I find myself thinking about.

    " 'It's called jumping the green,' he said with a diabolical smile. 'You know, like landing before you actually leap, leaving a room before the door opens, anticipating life before it happens.'...'known fact...people who jump the green meet their maker @ an early age.'"

    To make it a little clearer, jumping the green as in jumping the green traffic light at an intersection.

    And then you can add all this Pearl Jam stuff to it. Simply because of the word 'green'

    Addition:

    I used to be AeonFlux had tons of posts. I stopped posting due to life. And crap. And well..then the movie came out. It put both me and the wonderful original cartoon series to shame. No I didn't see it. That's because it shouldn't be seen. That's because it's not supposed to be a movie.

    Plus:

    NuclearTreeFrog told me I should come back. I said I would. I am a woman of my word.

    Ms. HaikuMs. Haiku Washington DC Posts: 7,253
    I love haiku, the poetry form, and I wanted to really focus the way I approached anything in life as if it was a haiku. Now, I don't write haiku so much, and I want my name to be Eva Fiori. Eva is a pretty name, and fiori means flowers in Italian. I've wanted to be a florist for years and years and years. I've asked for the change a few times, but maybe the mods were fed up when I changed my name a couple times in as many days from Bibliobella.

    I wore a yellow and grey striped shirt at my first PJ show. Used yellow b/c of the more obvious PJ connection (but they did play Hard To Imagine that night).
    Anyways, I didn't realize I needed permission to change it or I would've come up with something a bit more meaningful.

    gali means my ocean wavy in hebrew
    and stoney well should be spelled STONY
    It's a sick meaning behind my tattoo..
