My handle or nickname (alter-ego) is *SOAKBear*. No, it has NOTHING to do with being all wet!!! (SMILE). I got this name by "acronym." I started out on CompuServe's CB chat in early 1995, as *Silly Ole' Bear*, you know, sorta like Winnie the Pooh Bear, a bear "of very little brain...." (SMILE) Some of my friends thought it was "cute" to call me S.O.B.. LOL (photo � 1997 Barbara Logan) Then I decided that since I resided in Alaska, the land of the three bears, (the brown grizzly bear, the black bear and the white polar bear), I would change my name to *Silly Ole' AK. Bear*. Some of my friends STILL called me S.O.B.!!! ROFL One day in June 1995, I made a new friend on CompuServe. His name was *Framus*. *Framus* and I soon found that we had a lot in common. (SMILE) In fact we had both grown up in central California about an hour apart, and from 1982 to 1994 he had lived about a mile from my parents! *Framus* and I quickly became VERY good friends, in fact we fell in love!! (BIG SMILE) (photo � 1998 Barbara Logan) He started calling me *SOAK*, *SOAKy* and *SOAKBear*, and the name stuck. He moved from California to Alaska to be with me in September 1995. We were married here December 12, 1995. *Framus* and I are happily married for over ten years and, of course, still living in Alaska. (SMILE) (For those of you who, like me, wondered what the heck his handle *Framus* meant, Framus is a brand of guitar. He used to collect guitars and amps.) (photo � 1999 Barbara Logan) I am a domestic bear. I love being wife, mother (I have a wonderful daughter, 20 years old!) and homemaker. (SMILE) If you wonder why I (SMILE) so much, well, I have been (SMILE)ing a lot since I met my sweetheart *Framus*, the wonderful love of my life. (BIG SMILE) And all the roses?? Well, this love of mine is always giving me roses... (SMILE) If you are curious about my friends from CompuServe, check out this page. It has a drawing that someone did of the "Village Elders" in 1995. "Village Elders," channel 22 on CompuServe CB, was one of my favorite places to chat. I also frequented the "Breakfast Club," Channel 4; the "Bear Cave," Channel 18; and the "Porch," Channel 34. (photo � 2000 Barbara Logan) I don't seem to have much time to get online to chat these days. But when I do occasionally get on IRC to DALnet, Undernet, AnotherNet or other chat areas, I am always *SOAKBear*. (SMILE) That is my name on AOL Instant Messenger and ICQ as well... Thanks for visiting my page and please visit again!!! (SMILE) (photo � 2000 Barbara Logan)
