Wait.

Who's Tamryn?

Anybody know? Anybody?

I'm going to leave the room and turn the lights out and when I come back, somebody had better confess to being Tamryn.

And I am really MALCOLM MACINTOSH! (Yes, Gail, you thought you met a woman last year, but no..... :D)








Actually.... that's the pen-name I've contemplated using if I need a pen-name down the road. Oh. I guess I'll have to come up with a new one.

"I AM SPARTACUS!" "I AM ZORRO!" "I AM TAMRYN!"


Hahahahahahaahahahahhaha.

No wait.

That gag totally didn't work when it turned out that Kurt Buseik had used that name for real.

I like Tamryn.

On a side note, a popular character in our books is named Tannim Drake, and I am curious if any of the name and language experts at YABS could help me out by digging up background on the name Tannim. Misty (Mercedes Tamryn Lackey) & I (Larry Tamryn Dixon) sure would appreciate it.

Tannim is hebrew for Jackal I believe...although when Jackal was used in the old testament, the king james bible translated it into Dragon of Sea Monster. Go figure.

Dragons

In the Old Testament the KJV uses the term "dragon" for the Hebrew words tannim meaning "jackals" and tannin meaning "serpent, or sea monster" (BDB, 1072; Gesenius, 868-9). It seems the KJV mistranslated these two separate words. Tannim is from the root tan meaning "to howl" and tannin is from the root tanan "to smoke" (Ibid.). Jackals are known for their howling, and are associated with desolate areas. Tannin or "smokers" probably came from seeing the spouts of whales or the snorting of animals which looked like smoke coming from a fire inside. Our warm breathe in winter looks like smoke. This is probably how the idea of fire-breathing dragons started. The Hebrew is not referring to any dinosaurs.

The KJV uses the term "dragon" which comes from the Greek word drakon which means "serpent." It refers to a monster with a scaly snake like body. The Greek New Testament uses drakon 12 times only in the book of Revelation which the KJV translates as "dragon" (Rev. 12-13, 16:13, 20:2). The dragon in Revelation has seven heads similar to the leviathan in Ugaritic and Psalm 74:14 (Gibson, 50, 68; Walace, 290). Satan is called a "dragon" in Revelation 20:2.

What's particularly ironic about Ricky using "Tamryn" is that the "T" in Kevin T. Brown... well, I'm not saying it COULD be Tamryn, but it might be.

And I'll leave it at that.

Tamryn's actually a pretty cool name. It could have been worse. Hortense, maybe?

Definitely not a soccer mom name. Maybe I could be Tamryn!?!

It does sound like a good fantasy name, though. Maybe Larry and Misty could use it in their next book.

Although Rick would probably consider it a shout-out to him.

I wouldn't mind being a pepper, too.

I'm all for Unscrewed. I can't read it anymore.

I got sucked into the onley thread at some point and it made me angry all the crap he did to friends of mine and all of the filth he spouted.

Y'all are embracing it here with humor, but it just makes me want to go beat his butt.

I've seen you.

I wouldn't fuck with you lightly. And I fear no one.

But wanting to kick Olney's ass isn't a flaw....it shows your good character.

Flamebird

We would pretty much all like to kick his ass, but making fun of him is a bit healthier emotionally and less likely to get US arrested.

Plus it kills time between his lost court cases. :evilsmile

Wait....Did we have this conversation or did you and Chris? My whole weekends a bit of a blur. Rich versus Richard is a quick way to tell my friends. Its Richard. You'd be amazed how many sales people shorten my name to be familiar and strike out with Barry, Chris & Gina, the phone gate keepers.

No, I didn't get to meet Either one of you at cape, as you were all incredibly busy and I was a babbling idiot after meeting Mercedes Lackey.

The Rich/Richard thing is frome the old cape thread where I pointed out a typo on the cape site, but called you Rich.

Chris promtly corrected me. I was all like "who shot HIS dog?"

I call most people named Richard, "Rich" as before you; the only person i've ever met that went by the full name was my dad.

I thought it was funny anyway. :o

Awww. :o

Doesn't change the fact that I was a babbling idiot in front of her.

Deana is still making fun of me for that.

By the way, did you guys realize that she has an article in "Smart Pop2" that they were handing out at Cape?

I assume that it was written for something else, but wound up in this collection.

It's a pretty neat look at the TV show Firefly.

I figured if you knew, that you'd have been helping to hand out copies.

Shouldn't that be, "Flame, you ignorant Slut!"?
