IBC is the initials of the company that my husband has worked for some 26 years now. (he is 42) We were married when I was 19 and he was 20. We have moved all over the country for this company so that my husband could advance his career. I.E. I feel like I am a military wife... only for IBC!!

IBC.... hummm everyone knows the brand names this company produces.. can anyone guess?

Weeeeell, you win the prize. It is customary to offer a cigar at this point, but neither of us smokes, so accept a well done and all the rights and privileges appertaining thereto.

I think it's great jeffncandace that you would include your wife's name in your username. You're a true gentleman.
Why thank you! We, like every couple on the planet, have our ups and downs, but she is truly my best friend. There has been plenty of times when we were all each other had to hold on to in this crazy world!

By the way, I just want to give kudos to MontanaGuy for starting this thread. While it's not about religion, it's extremely interesting to see why we all chose our names, and it gives this forum a MUCH NEEDED lift.

I am a lifelong fan of the Miami Dolphins. Members of their fan club are known as Dolfans. Hence the name.

magellan,

You have it right! Wonder Bread and Twinkies... and soooo many others

The great thing is that now we are at the General Office... No more moving! We have been in this house for 9 years now. Before that we have moved 11 times.. (not all with the company) There are things that we didn't know that you had to do to a house! Paint... what do you mean paint... time to move! lol.

hmmm . . . my name is . . . britt and my last name starts with a . . . you guessed it, Z. I am so clever that usually amuse myself. I also like shiny things and cool noises. It is early, I was at the beach for 7 hours yesterday with 100 third graders and tonight I am staying up all night with 300 junior high students for our summer kickoff. Itis early and I am rambling, but at least I get to play golf today.
