A Chumbo is an interesting cross between a young-at-heart kid and an inspired adult. The word itself is an amalgam of two words which I happen to be fond of... Dumbo and Chimp.

 

From an early age, I have gone by the name Stephen. I'm really quite fond of this name, but really - who doesn't enjoy attaching names to their moods/environments :)

In the online gaming community (beginning with SubSpace in 1996), I went by the name Pumpkin King - although the community was large (hundreds of players) my friends quickly shortened my nick to simply "pk". Oddly enough, I've even met people in real life who somehow picked up the nick and use it on occasion

I also picked up the nicks Squidgie and SquidgieX - although I've never really remembered why I added these nicks :) SquidgieX is a humble reference to Malcolm X. Squidgie is a reference to... I dunno, it just sounds cool

 

Accept your place in the universe, and you'll find life is much more calm and rewarding.

By place in the universe, I mean - virtually insignificant speck in the cosmic spice.

By calm and rewarding, I mean - sit and watch the petals wisp up into the wind and finally tumble into the grass...
