Um..unfortunately mine's a derivative of the curse word, as spoken with my boston accent.
I didn't realize I would be using the forums when I signed up for instantcert, so I was just filling the form out with no regard and now I'm stuck with it. Wicked smaht.

My S/N is a testament to my lack of creativity when I first signed up for AOL in the 3rd(?) grade (windows 3.1 era). I have been rickyjo for a very, very, long time. Interestingly enough, I married somebody who is essentially majoring in creativity (music). When we talk about what we will name our kids, I have nothing to contribute. I fail at screen names and regular names.

Shoto - I had no idea you were a practitioner of Shotokan Karate. I trained in Shotokan from 1994-1996 back in college and moved up to halfway through the orange belt. I loved it.
Then back in 2003-2006, I started taking TaeKwanDo and moved up to a purple belt, which is a little over half-way to the black belt.
I love martial arts but due to moving, instructors leaving and other issues, I have not participated in it since 2006. I still stay limber and practice striking and our wonderful TKD high kicks

from time to time.

Burbuja = Bubbles in Spanish. That's the name of the blonde PowerPuff girl (hence my avatar)
I know the PowerPuff girls are a bit out of style right now, but they were totally in when I was living in Mexico years ago. Anyhow.. I guess because I was a blonde girl living in Mexico, and the only blonde that many of my friends knew, they often called me Burbuja.

My name stands for.............. forever upwards? lol. I decided with Excelsior954 because I was 100% certain I was going with EC, but I changed my mind to TESC. The 954 is the area code of Ft. Lauderdale. Although I'm in Miami right now lol. Yes confusing. >_<
