I am a research parasitologist with a special interest in tapeworms (cestodes)
As a latecomer to computing (in my 60s) I also need to parasitise the young brains on this site for help - which has always been forthcoming and very useful
My name is Jen and I used to fly planes. After that I became an aircraft mechanic, and now I work on the Space Shuttle so it is not as appropriate of a name anymore, but I still love planes, so I have never changed it. The name comes from the Curtiss JN4D aircraft which was affectionately named the "Flying Jenny" and is a famous historical plane. Here's a link to what one looks like.
Cribbage Wizard. It's a small concession to my vanity that tries to make people believe I am a far more proficient player of my favorite card game than I actually am.
Cribbage - the sport of kings!

I have heard it said that the death penalty is not enough of a deterrent.
I think that's because it takes too long to be carried out.
Im an animation freak...wanted to either be an animator or do voices for animation since I was a little kid. Bill Hanna and Joe Barberra were my favorites since I met Bill back in the 80's. Grape Ape was my favorite character that no one really remembers...so I figured i would have less competition using it as a nick, have used it since the early 90's but there have been others after me :(

I have been adding the number zero "0" to the end of different names I have tried; and I joked with my wife to use the name Uzziah (from the Bible) as a name for our son!
She would not go for that.
You ever had one of them days when the mouse on your PC just gets all squirrely. Well one day mines was acting up big time and I pulled it out of the PC and threw it at the wall . I was extremely "mad" at my "mouse" and said hey that would be a cool nick so I chose that one. But most people know me as bass3587, but that's another story. Well since I'm on the subject. I like bass fishing and I love my 357 magnum but bass357 was already taken so I just added the "8" and now you know the rest of the story.
Mine was given to me at work 7 years ago. They say I look like Ned Flanders and I am left handed. I rarely watch the show and have never seen an entire episode.
At least I'm not crusty the clown. They gave that to another guy. Really.
I think it's pretty obvious what my username means.... A little history behind it, though, when I was in mmm, I think it was 5th grade and was studying ancient Egypt, the teacher liked hands-on projects and one of them was mummifying a barbie doll and building a little cardborad tomb. We all called her Queen Shopsalot, so several years later when trying to come up with an e-mail I morphed it to ladyshopsalot
