About a year ago I played in a golf outing in Puerto Rico and was paired with a genleman from San Juan. He mis-heard my name on introduction (my name is Bridget), and called me Ginger (he said "Geenger") so delightfully for the entire round that I'm still called that by some of my travel pals. The K is sort of random because Ginger was already taken.

A result of a late night, a few initials from my name, and a failed attempt to use the first three non-divisible numbers (what do you call those things?)

I believe they are called prime numbers. In fact, the first three prime numbers are 2, 3 and 5.
But, hey, what do I really know?? The math gurus on this forum will have a field day with this one.....

I thought 1 was a prime number, too.

My former haircolour. I got bored last weekend and dyed it blonde so I guess I should now be "former redhead" Maybe I'll get bored again and go a different colour

The way Air Canada treats its former market in YEG. I say "former" because it has successfully managed to drive away hoards of former loyal passengers to its competitors me included.

Mine represents my profession. I am a Robotic Field Service Engineer and travel the USA to fix broken industrial robots. However, my work is not limited to fix electrical or mechanical problems. I also program the robots, offer advise to improve customer processes, improve system performance and train customers in programming and operation of our robot cells.

How many doctors make house calls today?

Mine was one of many phrases that referred to people who were always happy, like Pollyanna, Marysunshine, etc. Optimism! But Mary is NOT my real name

Mine is an obscure Star Trek reference. But many people here on FT have already noticed that, so I probably don't even need to tell most of you this.
