What's in a name??
Urbandictionary gave me this...well there were like 3 pages I just took the first one they gave.
1. alyssa
the kind of girl who still manages to find a way to smile; the one that you'll see walking down the hallway, having her head up high, trying just one last time; the kind of girl that will get back up, each and everytime she falls... the kind of girl who NEVER gives up.

Re: What's in a name??
A bit like Elliot Reid, then?
Good to see you at EvC, Alyssa (I'm assuming from the name and face that you are the same Alyssa from the 'other place').
I hope you enjoy it here (no Rob) .

Re: What's in a name??
Yes Larni I am from the 'other place.' I guess you could say I'm a bit like Elliot. I like her picture, she's pretty and my favorite actress from 'Scrubs'

Venus Bluegenes
Bluegene is an IBM supercomputer, apparently.
Blue Genes is a shop selling jeans. Forbidden
Venus Bluegenes is this superheroine No webpage found at provided URL: http://www.internationalhero.co.uk/b/bluegene.htm
I'd never heard of her, but she could make an appropriate avatar, as she's obviously confrontational and well armed.
Here she is, attacking random creationists with guns blazing.
She's even got a wiki page Rogue Trooper - Wikipedia

Re: positioned for the future
I always think of you as RAZZ--a Brit (or Aussie) version of a Bronx Cheer. Wonder why? :-)
