So, what's your handle?

You've read, of course, about the lesbian Syrian blogger hoax? Tim Blair invites us all to come out of the closet and name ourselves.

Frankly, the first comment over there was so funny I despaired of competing:
Commenter Case of Melbourne: "I use the name of the street I live in and the cigarette I smoke - Beaver Holiday."
Although, following his model...hmmm...Winchester Leghorn...sounds more like a porn name, actually.

    For me, that would be Kings Roars.
    At least they used to. Now it's up to us.

    Winchester Leghorn? Big game hunter. Race car driver. Mining prospector. Oil rig fire fighter. Texas lawman.

    Definitely not a lesbian name, though.

    So let's see... I get to be Hawksview, ummm... I don't smoke cigarettes, although a good cigar is not out of the... okay:

    Hawksview Montecristo.

    Absolutely not a lesbian name.

    "Hawksview Montecristo" ... sounds like a Gertrude Stein character.

    Cheers
