Gah, Riv-e-eck? That's quite different from how I've pronounced it.

Anyway, question Riv. I remember someone saying your name is latin for something. If it is, what does it mean? I checked my French/Latin teacher's large latin encyclopedia, couldn't find it in there.

rivieque itself has latin (or greek..i might be wrong): rivi from rivimortes. and the eque is from my favourite song, idioteque. for my original name riviques, i just wangend the last 4 letters. **Shrugs**

It's kinda like that old game called Life & Death, only with your name... hack stuff apart and gleefully cackle as the blood flys by in that sort of off-color that true EGA provides. lol Yes, yes, I even have a link for you. http://www.the-underdogs.org/game.php?name=Life+and+Death

Ok, nevermind, I'm not making any sense and I know it. Know why? Cause it's 6am and I've been up all night! :D

hmmmm. I remember that game... always thought it should have been a mad scientist and you were assembling body parts to make a "creature" rather than awkward surgery stuff... kinda reminds me of america's army. too much learning involved..

and now, since that is the third time I have reached for my coffee cup, only to remember that it is empty.. I am going to go play hunt the coffee pot.. a cunning task involving chasing the afore mentioned coffee pot, around the house...

Ah, that would explain why I didn't see it in there, heh.

Hmm. I actually pronounced it more or less with a silent "i" but with a streetched "e". A silent "u"
and a very soft/or silent "e" at end. but with a bit slack on the "q"
Which I guess is pretty close to how you want it said? lol
(I tought it was french or sumpt :)
