I must confess that I'm still curious what your present name is (since we had easter a couple of days ago and following your wife's logic... well.. 'Bunny' could be a coherent substitution of 'Turkey'). Ahem, anyway... I think most of the nicknames my wife gives me (there are not that many) were already there before we married (we waited long enough). Before you get involved with the romantic stuff, it's better you know what might approach you... :) Pre-Estimating Regards, Martin Actually
