Ian, others, I have been living a lie

For some time now I have been trying to figure out ho0w to come clean without causing any troubles, It seems that for some time now I have been allowing people to call me by the wrong name. My name is Joseph or Joe Coulter. There was for a while another individual named Josh W(IIRC) some time during our mutual postings Ian started calling me Josh and I never corrected it. (Truth be told I never liked Joe and Joseph sounds so damned formal) However, in the interests of keeping things straight, the name is Joseph, or if you must Joe, but I will still respond to Josh ;-)

I wondered about that, but figured that Ian was just Joshing! ;-)

Any relation to Jessi Coulter?.... "I'm not Lisa, my Name is Julie..." And now you.... "I'm not Josh, my name is Joe" ROFL

FWIW, I think Joe's a much better name than Josh (and Lisa was my "first" so there's a special spot in my heart for that name).

I'm not Lisa either come to think of it!

And no relation to Ann either. Well maybe somewhere but not too close.

Salut/Hi JOSH

Joseph, I'm SO sorry. I don't know what made me start calling you Josh. I promise I'll do my best to remember.

I should point out, however that the chances are slim. We have a friend (Richard) who I called Roger so often and despite frequent correction, for so long, that in the end, he gave up, and now calls himself Roger to me and our mutual friends. As for my B&B clients. The poor so&sos have to get used to being called the first name that comes into my head.

You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay, or you can call me Johnson etc, etc but you dasn't call me Josh.

I got it.

Not a problem at all. I just thought it would be good to clear the air in case I ever wanted to use my real name some time.

Joseph, my sheepish apologies, too. Don't know how it started, but you're probably right that it had something to do with the other Josh. Anyway, I have certainly been guilty.

Hope it feels good to "come out of the closet." :) Problem fixed, in any case.
