<BR>
<BR>------------------->Mystery explained. And by the way, I prefer "lively and loopy". Dude, are you intimating that I am NOT nice? : ) See. Nice. Funny about that Epic 22 bit.
<BR>
<BR>Kaytee:
<BR>
<BR>Very similar names... munged a bit for "security"? Or "corrected" by Yahoo and/or Spell Check ?(My Spell Check wants to convert "Adriel" to "Ariel" at least, and see Mark's latest book re: what it does to El Senor's name).
<BR>
<BR>----------------->Converted to Ariel. Wow. Now there's a scary thought.
<BR>
<BR>Both speak, or claim to speak, Spanish (see posts re: Portuguese puns).... Hmmm... the mystery deepens.... Most of the Groosagi posts are signed "Ari", if signed at all. (Yes, I do need to clean out my filing cabinet...).
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>------------------->Bueno. Parece que voy a tener que cambiar mi manera de firmar mis e-mails. Hay que hacer lo que se tiene que hacer para quedar misterioso.
<BR>
<BR>Also, it looks like there might be 15 other Groosagis, although only #16 posts here.... If so, are they cute, quiet little bunnies like Adriel, or wild and wacky like #16, a.k.a. "Ariel"/"Ari"? And, are there Groosagi # 17 and up?
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>-------------------->There were 16 of 'em actually. (Groosagi, Groosagi1, Groosagi2, etc.) I took care of that though. Yes, they WERE cute. 17 and up you say? Just point 'em out sweetheart. Just point 'em out.
<BR>
<BR>And do they all have the initials "A.S."? And... and... are any of them the mirror twin of "S.A."?
<BR>
<BR>
<BR>------------------------>You've cracked it. I can no longer hide the truth. I just can't. It's too much. Too much. All of these A[XXX]el Ses with some connection to Groo and Usagi are part of a (oh the humanity) secret South American corporation (S.A., Sociedad Anonima) created for the dark purpose of...
<BR>
<BR>Oh, no. They know I've turned. They've found me. THEY'RE HERE!!!
<BR>
<BR>You can't stop the truth. I'll tell everyone....

<BR>
<BR>O.K. Then. Groosagi17 here. Please disregard the foregoing post.
<BR>
<BR>Later,
<BR>Suds
<BR>
<BR>p.s. Seriously, I have wondered about the other alleged Groosagis. When I signed up, I tried to have "Groosagi" as the name. But CS said something like that wasn't available, and it suggested instead Groosagi12. I did not sign up at that time. Instead. I ranted and raved at the absurdity of someone else grabbing up my handle. How dare they. All 12 of 'em. Anyhow, I got back on the computer a couple of hours later and signed up with the Groosagi16 name now offered by the server. 2 hours and 4 more Groosagis. How could this be? Either the rabittity of the Barbaribunnies was high (They must be up to what, Groosagi10000000 by now, at that rate) or there was something wonky with the server's name allower. It remains a mystery.
<BR>
<BR>p.p.s. I have been refered to as a bunny before. I can't figure it. As for shy and quiet, I am reserved--initially.
<BR>
<BR>p.p.p.s. It's been a hard day's night, And I've been Groosagi like a dog...</FONT></HTML>
