Ahh, so you're named after a crook?
Hmmmm... It seems there was quite a discussion on my name here.

Eh, who cares. But actually Carnotaur means "Meat-eating bull". I got that from the book that is currently sitting in my lap. Sorry, I had to get you on that one.
Originally posted by Captain Skyblade: **Yes, I personally like the name as well. He got the word "Carnotaur" from the nasty, T-Rex-like dinosaurs, seen in the motion picture "Dinosaur."
Correctimundee.
Originally posted by Neoliz: **Yeah, but he's right. Carnotaurs are in the book "The Lost World." They're portrayed as chameleon-type dinosaurs, I think. **
Yes, that is correct. There were two chameleon-type dinosaurs that were stalking the compound. Does this mean I'm really good at hide-and-seek?
My vote goes to either Nova6 or Captain Skyblade, haven't really decided yet. Both of them are pretty cool.

Uh, no. "Carnivore" means meat-eating or flesh-eating. The "carn" part alone means meat/flesh, and the "vore" part is the part that makes it mean "meat/flesh eating." Therefore "carnotaur" is a correlation of the word for meat/flesh and the word "taurus" or bull. Therefore, Carnotaur means meat bull or flesh bull.

I always liked Soviet Mikee (not sucking up, I'm just a Commie at heart), AnaerobicShark is kinda cool too, as I like the idea of a shark that does not require oxygen. Locke caught my eye, as I am a Final Fantasy junkie, and 6/3 was my favorite. Burning cow, harkens me back to my Warcraft 2 days, my favorite tip was "Never pet a burning dog." Those are the ones that come immediately to mind, should I think of more I'll come back.

Mr. David is quite right. El Guapo is derived from "The Three Amigos".
The 7 is my lucky number. Besides, elguapo@yahoo.com was already taken.
In hindsight, maybe I shouldn't post this...i mean, i'm puncturing my own veil of mystery...?
ElG7
btw, I pronounce it "El Guapo" because that's how they said it in the movie - I know it's "El hwapo". (El Huapo would be pronounced "wappo".)

Cazic Thule sounds like something from Star Wars comic books. Where does it come from? The origins of names has always intrigued me...
Hehe, it is actually from a massive online role-playing game called Everquest. Some of you may have heard of it (however it is not a Macintosh game,) he's the God of Fear. I always liked the way it sounded.
