That's my fav character, won't ever deny it, and wil forever destroy him piece by piece.. until I've killed him every way possible (I haven't gotten so far as to have the state kill him yet. I've gotten to murder though by Stanton Gerrard! That's a plus!)

Plus, I like Lucy... and Wooton and Bernard will always be a favorite... :)

:P
If you love him so much, why do you want to kill him multiple times? :-s
God promises a safe landing, not smooth passage.

I don't know... it's this weird thing that happens in my brain... you really shouldn't read my stories.... they are dangerous! I really have no idea... I'm just.. weird... and stupid. Because he hasn't came back in so long I think he's dead?

Oh my word... I came up with the name because I am writing a story (long, complicated, nowhere near finished... and I daydream about 3 stories every day... so, yeah...) and Richard has a daughter, and well... that's how Danielle Abigail Maxwell came to be... her and her mother both have very long names now... :)

Not a big RM fan, Amy? That's sad.... he's like, totally AWESOME! But then again, I did used to hate his guts worth than hooey, but that was so long ago, I don't know how long I've drooled over Richard Maxwell....

Oh, I always thought that your real first and middle names are Danielle Abigail, so you combined that with your love for Richard. I knew the Maxwell came from your favorite character, but I didn't know about the Danielle Abigail, because I've never read your story. It sounds interesting though, Richard Maxwell as a father... hmm.

Yeah, kinda like Tom.... but not exact. It took some getting used to in the beginning.... and then Sara caught on!

Hmm... Well, I wish I had done that... but my first name isn't terribly common, and my middle name is Christine. I despise it. My sister comes up with like, every other nickname for it since I don't like it. Like Stina (we all used to think it was Christina that was my middle name. Then mom cleared it up for us), and then she'd called me actual Christine. Now I'm just called Shortstuff, because I'm short, in some sense. I'm taller than my Aunt though, so, well, I'm not so short anymore... 5" 2'. I believe....
You can't imagine how weird it is to be considered the daughter of Richard Maxwelll... (I'm still getting creepy e-mails... but don't worry, I set them straight!) Though, I do like the name, and I deliberately wanted to have the initials say some word that when you say it, it sounds like a bad word, but when you actually read it with your eyes, it's instead the other meaning. Like that dam tour I took once... the guide was instructed to say dam... a lot. It made everyone laugh. Homophones... ah!

haha, funny story:

My mom doesn't really like the ToO, 'cause she thinks everyone you meet online is a murderer or something, anyway one time she looked over my shoulder to see what I was doing and she saw a political signiture that said DAM and she was like, "WHAT IS THAT ALL ABOUT, I THOUGHT THIS WAS CHRISTIAN!" I tried to explain, but she still didn't quite believe me.

No, a name wouldn't mean anything to her.

I believe that the most desirable character in the whole plethora (646 and slowly counting) of episodes made available for broadcast is definitely and without the shadow of a doubt (to borrow the colloquialism) Eugene Melstner, son of Leonard, son of Hiram. The jovial and rather rotund gentleman who delivers my mail is also a very pleasant fellow: Wooton Bassett.

I'd have to say my favorite character is Whit, because he's my father-in-law.

That is not expected behavior for a person named after Jimmy's sister! Jimmy and Donna Barclay fought all the time in the shows.

Which is proof that she was nuts about him. Brothers and sisters fight because they love each other and don't want to admit it.

I love my siblings, but that's not why I fight with them. The old saying goes "Familiarity breeds contempt." If you are around someone a lot, then you get tired of being around them and the smallest thing can annoy you.
