HEY, HEY, NOW! You're looking at a native Houstonian, and I WAS an Oiler fan. To the extreme of even going to that after game pep rally, where Bum Phillips said that they had knocked on the door, and the next year were going to kick the SOB in. We didn't dislike our team. We had some great players in those years, such as Dante (Dan) Patorini and Earl (The Tyler Rose) Campbell. What we were happy to lose was Bud Adams. What an...........oh, we don't have a donkey smilie.

Ok, as for my screen name, well on a large site out there, I had another name in the beginning, but after a turbulent time in my life came to a close, I decided to stop using that one, and moved to this one. I was once lovelyintexas, but that name and that naive person both have gone loooooong by the wayside. WhiteTigress is because I've always viewed myself to have a feline energy within. I've loved white tigers, because they are rare, striking, different. Some people think that I'm tied to the color or racist because of the "white" in the name, but it has to do with the rare cats instead. As someone else mentioned, hyphens and even spaces are a pain in the tush, so I just ran them together, but kept the uppercase letters for each part. Sometimes people shorten it to "White", but I'd prefer if they want to shorten it, that they use "Tigress" or "WT", as I do in my signature.

In the leather world, I've got a different name, and most everyone in the Houston and Austin gay and leather community know me as Treasure (still not my birth name). It was given to me by my first dominant. Besides my blood kin, and a handful of my friends and LGBT charitable community associates, no one calls me by my real name, which is Kimberly. My blood kin and Timber are the only people I will allow to call me Kim. It's too common, and there are waaaaaaaaay to many people out there with that name. For the most part, I'm Treasure, and when people get to know me, they tell me that it suits me.

As for here, you can just call me WT or Tigress. I'm happy either way.

I'm a fan of Chess.
I used to collect chess boards + pieces.
My most expensive board cost 400, made with beach glass + crystals { I loved that board..My lovely ex wrecked it }
My favorite piece is the Rook, because of its value + power in the Game and strategic moves that make it seem innocuous, almost risky..until the Player puts it in motion..


I've had other usernames elsewhere in the past, I can tell how Long a friend has known me based on their comfort with a specific Nickname.
The Longest being "BD" {BlueDragon, a nick I used about...10-ish years ago}
Very few get away with calling me by my birth name, unless they're my immediate relatives, or my spouse/companion, my companion usually has a good fuckin reason, else they can use my legal name.Otherwise, at best, I'll stare and/or ignore.
