I need a nickname. . .
Gypsy mentioned this once and I agree. I need a nickname. So, suggestions anyone. I'd prefer it wasn't initials like MF. I'm not particularly fond of that idea. All others are welcome. Shortenings, rearranging or letters or anything else that comes to you. So, I guess we're playing the name game.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.
Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.
But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Well, I don't know. I think being called manga's a little odd. I sorta feel like manga's a comic book, not a name. I dunno. I'll consider it.

Alright, nickname time!
Um ...
...
This is hard! Actually, I'm with Ronin. Usually I give peopel nicknames on the spur of the moment and I would have used 'Manga' for you. Actually, using it for short sounds kinda cute, I think. But Nia-chan's Manatic is also catchy. Good luck choosing, Mangafanatic.

Manfan was the first thing that came to my mind, although I also like Osaka (but only because it is the final stage in Capcom vs. Snk 2 ).

I don't know what they're refering to, either.
Hmm...how about Mifan? I like Mafi, though.

I like the name, "Mani." You can either pronounce it "man - nee" or "mon - nee." Which is really a Norse name which could possibly be traced to "daughter of Thunder." But, that's a long shot. Anyway, that's my two cents, Mani. *hehe* (~-^)
[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE
You see into the deepest part of me ---
beyond the fog I hide behind.
You cast your light upon the shadows
that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.
You ease the pain when I am hurting,
and morbid visions from my past
pierce into the realm of Reason
as though I danced on blades of glass.
You grant me strength when I have fallen
and, once again, I've lost my way.
You take my hand in Yours and lead me
into the promise of a brand new day.
You bring order to all my chaos,
yet set my well-laid plans awry.
You place me on a firm foundation ---
then give me wings so I can fly.
You sand away my roughened edges
and polish all the dullest parts
until I stand before Your presence...
a newly-sculpted work of art.
You see into the heart within me,
right through my motives and selfish will.
And yet, in spite of all You see
You say You love me even still.

The "Osaka" joke is from Azumanga Daioh, where one of the characters Ayumu get's nicknamed "Osaka" because that's the town where she's from. Yeah, I think Osaka would be a great nickname...
