tenmm Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 tenmm: is simply that, metric as between 9mm and 11mm I spelled it like that because that was/is the way I needed to spell it for the server here and other places. I wanted to do it like this "10MM" but it was not long enough and did not start with the all powerfull letter needed. There is another meaning to it but I will not say here as it is not politically correct,some of you might all ready know. If you feel the need PM I will tell you there. BTW folks it is all lower case,I hate formality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rhema7 Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 (edited) the name of my side company. Rhema7 designrhema = A Greek word that means any spoken word having a definite meaning. Romans 10:8 uses "rhema" in place of the more common word "logos."rhema =Rhema (ρημα) is the Ancient Greek word that describes the act of speaking. It can be found in the following New Testament passages: Matthew 12:36The Rhema is the spoken word. The Bible translates Logos and Rhema as the one word, "word", and it has confused those outside of prophetic congregations. The Rhema is the spoken word of God and denotes the teaching or utterances in which God through someone declares His mind. Rhema is the divine instruction by the preachers of the gospel, words of prophecy and prophetic announcement.Many interpret as the spoken Word of God drawn from the Logos (the written or inspired Word of God) or utterance given by the logos to deal with current or future situations.7 is the number of spiritual perfectnessrhema7 is actually my goal, to speak the perfect word of God in life to help others and myself.Preston Edited August 21, 2005 by rhema7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
blim Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 (edited) Hoo boy, are you sure you want to know this??? It's a long story. (And great question by the way, Mike, I've often wondered with some of the unusual screennames I've seen!!)Daughter was at a friend's house talking. Friend's mom came in on the conversation and completely misunderstood what they were talking about, and announced, "but Blimpie sucks" (they weren't even talking about sub sandwiches, but the Mom thought they were!!)So, Daughter and Friend decided "blimpiesucks" is a perfect word for being totally clueless and confused, and Daughter started using that as her AIM Screenname. But she kept getting "trashed" with that name, so she shortened it to Blim. She changed her screen name again to something else and I stole it because I liked the sound of it. Otherwise, I would have been just plain Liz (there arent very many Liz's)Liz Edited August 21, 2005 by blim Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Honda_Boy Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 (edited) me well DERRRRRRRRRRRRR. I love Hondas. Before I matured though I used to be a huge fan of Mobile Suit Gundam (actually still am but to a lesser extent) and all my names had something to do with that like Wing Zero or RX-78 or GP-01 or Burning Gundam crap like that. By the way Gundam Seed sucks but the rest are great. Gundam Seed was too generic and the voicing was horrid. The original which had the same animation quality but better styling than Lupin the 3rd kicked the crap out of seed. I kinda miss being a Gundam Head. Man I wasted a LOAD of money on those action figures .P.S. Preston you know I am a Titans fan but even more GO VOLS!!!! GO BIG ORANGE!!!! GO UT!!!!! I like college football. But also GO LIONS!!!!! (not the crappy NFL team my high school's team ) and go Tigers (my Middle school's team but i really don't care about them any more i'm a senior in high school.)
