While sitting at my desk at work a long, long time ago, a lady that I worked with looked at me and said, "you look like a hootie!" Well, I don't even know what a hootie looks like, but it sorta stuck. I figured I had been called a lot worse, so what the heck. I started an e-mail account with hoo-t as my username, and now I use it for just about everything online. That was at least ten years ago. I still use that e-mail account as my primary e-mail, too.
Hmm... hootie - hottie - hootie - hottie ?!?!? Nah!!!!
