It's Time to ASK MrScorpio Anything!
However, I'm not promising that you'll like the answers.

Be daring and take a chance.

4. Why exactly did you choose the MrScorpio handle?
Edited on Sat Sep-30-06 11:42 PM by Generic Brad
Could it simply be because your birthday falls between 10/23 and 11/22? Or is MrScorpio a red herring designed to throw us all for a loop?

26. Usually, just the ones you'll find in gay bars
Outside of that, if you realize that they're taking up all the air in the room when they speak, that would be a definite yes.

Outside, of those two choices, the answer is a rock solid maybe.
