Origin

My parents long before they knew me.

       The origin of my Blip name has been described before. In brief my sister chose my name, Alan (harmony) rather than John Edward . . . this meant we had the same initials.

       The journal title started as plain Blippin' Marvelous and became Truly after the site was rescued by the community.

       I was going to snap a portion of my birth certificate . . .

       One of the quirky Chamber's definitions of origin is: odd in character . . . a person of marked individuality or oddity . . .
