[biba]

BIBA – the British Insurance Brokers' Association – is the UK’s leading general insurance organisation. We represent the interests of insurance brokers, intermediaries and customers, and have partner members from the leading companies in the insurance industry.

Welcome to Biba, Italian food at its best. Made from only the freshest ingredients, every meal is carefully fashioned to excite the senses.

Histery of BIBA 'Wherever the girls went there was silence. Elly was completely blue: blue make-up, blue clothes, blue cap and blue curls. Eva was all green, Del all violet. Some girls were all in black... in their full regalia looking as if they had just left a Fellini set.' Barbara Hulanicki, describing the impact of the Biba look in 'From A to Biba'. Biba is frequently mentioned in the same giddy breath as mini-skirts, Mini cars, the Kings Road, the pill and various other London 'happenings' which shall forever define the 1960's as a decade that swung. It was, however, born of humble origins - garments were initially sold cheaply and to many, by mail order in newspapers. But by the early 1970's, Biba - a labour of love, a label, a lifestyle - had reached hitherto unknown heights of sophistication, innovation and retail experimentation, via its legendary Big Biba emporium on Kensington High Street (once hailed in the Sunday Times as 'the most beautiful store in the world').
... BLA BLA BLA BIBA

Biba is the British Isles premier backgammon association

[StoneCutter]

I got my name from the Jacob Riis quote that the Spurs have posted.

When nothing seems to help, I go and look at a stonecutter hammering away at his rock, perhaps 100 times without as much as a crack showing in it. Yet at the 101st blow it will split in two, and I know it was not that blow that did it but all that had gone on before.

[HJNTX]

I waiting for the story behind whottt's name.

i'm still rather mystified by "mouse," myself.

[J.T.]

It's my first 2 initials and what pretty much everyone I know calls me. My dad calls me A.J. but he's the exception not the rule.

[mikekim]

it's my name. And...it's a palindrome! mikekim is the same forwards or backwards. Yeah I know, it's pretty damn cool.

[LavaLamp]

When I needed to come up with a username for Spurstalk, I looked to the object next to my monitor for inspiration.

It rhymes with my middle name and it's a nickname I have had for a long time. My husband doesn't even call me by my real name anymore.

lmao because Isabella's nickname is pulgita... and we hardly ever call her isabella anymore.

[Marcus Bryant]

Once upon a time I was told that my handle could not be the same as the name of a NBA player and I had to change. Given that at the time I was a member of the only Spurs bbs forum on the internets and enjoyed the format moreso than the administrator, I complied.

Then I was told that Derrick Dial was the Spurs' secret playoff weapon.

Now I am here.
