Rocket is my greyhound's racing name, but that was already taken here, so I added "Girl" on the end. When I came back on here I didnt think I would be allowed to use my old handle (should have tried) so I just got my 3 cats names Clemmie, Ellie and Polly and put them together. Its a bit of a mouthful but I'm glad I dont get the cheesy "I'm being so original" one liner pm's anymore about my handle!

myriad is many faceted and that's a good way to describe me, and I love the connection to the skies as in 'there's a myriad of stars'

Moose is my nickname in real life. When we were kids we used to watch a TV proggy in which one of the characters was called Moose. Everyone said he looked like me, and so they all started calling me Moose. It has stuck ever since and pretty much everyone still calls me Moose, very few people ever use my real name.

When the French captured Spain's King Ferdinand VII, Argentina fell completely under the rule of the local viceroyalty, which was highly unpopular. The locals rebelled against the viceroyalty and declared their allegiance to the captive king. By 1816, the deep division between Argentina and its mother country had become quite apparent, and a party of separatists decided to declare the country's independence. One of the new patriots, Jose de San Martin Costa, crossed the Andes and captured Lima. Along with Simon Bolivar, Costa is credited with breaking the shackle of Spanish rule in South America.

An interesting fact but not in the slightest way related to the way i got my name. I am from Cork, and its by the sea, and has the best weather in Ireland (warm Atlantic breeze), so its Costa del Cork, hense Costa Cork Very Happy

But you spelled yours wrong, you have a "b" instead of an "h" in there.
