The poster formerly known as Monchichi said this:

:>1.  No more nicknames for me.  Period.  (can you tell I really *hate*
    this stuff?)

and this:

:>I have another bargaining tool.  For those of you who might be interested
in a copy of "how Damon met Saf", I have it available on request, by
email.  In Foxtrot's case, however...I need a nickname retraction *first*.
*very wide grin*

First, to answer DJC's plea: I retract the nickname "Monchichi, the Monkey
Boy" from all future malings (like this one) and will refer to you as 
"That guy over there who shares the same first name and last
initial of my fiancee".  When you look at it in retrospect, Monchichi is just
easier
to type:)

However, I have to call you something other than your given name if you don't
like Mon^H^H^that other name.  I have made a solemn vow that there will only be
one
Damon C. in my life and his middle name isn't Jason.

Saf had this to say about the whole business:
:>"Monchichi"?  What a nickname!  I take it you're going to suggest to 
Panda for his _official_ nickname?  ^_-

I already have suggested it among others to Panda, and he rather liked it.
Here was his reply when I initially started making suggestions:
:>I like these last two; "Monchi-chi The Monkey Boy" :) He'd hate you for it
but I think it'd be a hoot! 

So actually, Panda is to blame for putting two separate suggestions
together ( which were "Monchichi" and "The Monkey Boy") and 
coming up with "Monchichi, the Monkey Boy".

But I do take credit for both names and as a gesture of good faith,  I also take
it
back.

However, I am throwing open any suggestions from you, the MLers as
to what we should call "That guy over there" because he just can't go running
around without a nickname, and the one he picked himself ("Captain")
is the name of a character in Bentley's imagination.  Even if Bentley 
didn't mind, then there is the problem of Bents' character being female
and "That guy" being male.

So, suggestions for his new nickname can be sent to either
me at <103707.3614@CompuServe.com> or Panda <askuse@execulink.com>
and we will compile them and put them up for voting.  And if someone just
*happens* to like the suggestion of Monchichi, then
we'll have to add it to the list.

:>I just love it when I get my way...  8)

We'll see about that.}:-) (devilish smiley)

Foxtrot the Furryous
...would now be a bad time to ask for my copy of "When Damon Met Saf"?
