Not that this has any bearing on who I am or my participation on this message board, I feel a need to communicate the origin of my handle.
I am American, born and raised. However, after studying French in middle and high school and college, I dated for just over a year a young Parisian lady. At the time that I joined this forum, I was non-reving on DL once a month to see her and I became known at work as 'the straight flight attendant that knows everything about France'. As such, given the position that France and a Frenchwoman had in my life, at that point, ATL2CDG seemingly helped to define who I am.
Granted, I ended my relationship with her over two years ago and haven't been to Europe since. However, I don't have the means to change my username to a more suiting handle (I'm sure deez_nutz2000 would have me labeled 'FrenchCommieHomo' or something to that effect). As such, my username will continue to draw criticism and rants from many people.
Oh well, it's just a handle..
