Good idea for a thread Mike. Actually had a couple people ask me about mine lately. I collect Chinese and Japanese swords, or at least I did when funds allowed for it :o My handle stems from that. Translated, xia ke means chivalrous swordsman ;)

Didache (pronounced Did-ah-kay) is Greek for "teaching". It purports to be the Teaching of the Apostles, although it can be dated anywhere between 70AD and the late 3rd C. As I am a minister, it seemed appropriate. The Wikipedia article on it is at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Didache

Re: Explain your login name
Originaly mine was going to be Cosmonaut. My step daughter took over my e-bay account and changed my original e-bay ID there to Cosmonaut. But I entered my real name in the wrong place when I registered here and I just let it stay. I started to ask the Mods how big of a deal it would be to change it, but everyone knows me by Greg so. It stays.

I will say I'm sorry in advance but, how about "bü-ker"? Now's your chance to get even... No one can ever seem to pronounce my last name correctly either. My last name is Lehoux. Give that one a whirl, and don't worry, I've heard them all :wink:
Re: Explain your login name
Princess of the OT? That's courtesy of Rick. Refers to my moderator status, and the tiara that was bestowed upon me by Nat for self-portraits.
