New Guys - What does your name mean?
201. Author: ducati996Date: Wed, 3/12/2003, 2:07PM EST
I didn't set up this name with the viewing public in mind. I just wanted an easy name to remember. I ride a Ducati 996 motorcycle, so it was easy to remember while bidding on cigars.

"I" am not Emmitt Smith, I am Scott Smith.
203. Author: Phat ManDate: Wed, 3/12/2003, 5:36PM EST
Uhm...well, I'm a kinda big guy (6'4" about 285), so really, I should be called "Fat Man". The "Ph" part was my attempt to be cool or something like that.
204. Author: efmDate: Wed, 3/12/2003, 6:44PM EST
I think mine means "A day late and a dollar short". Dunno why or even how I know that but it fits. Anyhow I've left instructions that when the time comes, that's what should be engraved on my headstone.

Assuming anybody find the body...and bothers to bury it.

I had to reply to William Huntsman's porn star name thingy. Mine would be Smoky Krannawitter...pretty erotic huh?
I guess I am a newbie, although I think I have spent enough money here to qualify as a vet...
Monkeybong comes from me calling my four year old daughter Monkey one night, and she responded directly by yelling BONG! I have no idea why, but I thought it was funny. Anyway, it doesn't have anything to do with primates and ghanja.
Finally, in resonse to a message a long time up the line.. I know who Charlie Parker is, I actally have a chalk rubbing from his gravestone. Wierd.

Mine used to be cigman_floyd, a knock off of Sigmund Freud (if I'm not mistaken a fellow BOTL), later shortened to cigman. It seems that those of the female persuasion have always singled me out as a person to confide in when they need someone to talk to (an arrangement which has worked out rather well for me in past years), and those in my group of friends would see this and say "Ol' Sigmund Floyd is up to his old tricks again!" The monicker just sort of stuck. So when I became computerized in the early 90's, I was also big into cigars and cigman_floyd was born.

It picked it because its my AIM screen name.

No really reason why I picked it. I just thought it sounded cool.

223. Author: 0patienceDate: Sat, 10/25/2003, 4:57PM EST
I gained the name "zero" patience from the guys in the shop I used to work in. I pushed for things to get done quickly to move on to the next.
I hated whan it seemed like things were taking too long and I would push to get them to finish up or I would take over and finish it. Not really a good thing, when I think back. LOL!
They used to kid me about not having any patience, so the name stuck.
224. Author: mrtelcomDate: Sat, 10/25/2003, 5:43PM EST
mr are my initials. In 1995 I was a co-founder of a startup company called Telecom International. It took us a few months to get around to building a mail server (we still used telephones and fax machines in the old days LOL). So a few of us got AOL accounts and there was an 8 character limit on email names, so mrtelecom was shortened to mrtelcom.

So don't call me Mister! ;-)

225. Author: dz130Date: Sat, 10/25/2003, 7:07PM EST
dz are my initials-Doug Zalud. 130 comes from my part-time aviation photography, and my favorite aircraft, the Lockheed C-130 Hercules. Couldn't think of anything else, and I didn't want to put down Paramedic, my occupation.

I am Bond, Savings Bond. Agent 000....My name comes from a spoofed character my friend and I made up during the sixth grade, which doesn't seem all that long ago.

234. Author: sketchaDate: Sun, 10/26/2003, 12:54PM EST
When I started barbacking at Margaritaville I was forever calling all the "Valley Cooks", "Sketchers". By using the word too often, it backfired on me and it became MY nickname.

One of those who helped bring all this about was my best friend, Dave from Boston. Sketcha is his "Southee" pronunciation.

The wife always tells me I have such evil looking eyes and others have made the same comment to me over the years. Devil Eyes is also a song I'm fond of.

Well, some friends started calling me 'goat' in high school. So, when my 'internet life' began in 1993, 'goat' was the username that i used regularly. Then slowly i started noticing lots of other goats, and finally one day i tried to sign up for something as 'goat' and the name was already taken. Imagine!!! So, I signed up as 'originalgoat', because i am, after all, the original goat, and that has been my online identity ever since.

Accept no imitations!!!!

Grew up in a little district called Mines. Which was by another little district called Mt. ZIon. The men from Mt Zion, when talking about us, always referred to us as minesmen. Being 1 of said men = minesman.

248. Author: Brandon HDate: Thu, 10/30/2003, 6:57PM EST
Hmmm, let me think...

Brandon - First name

H - initial of last name

Very uncreative I know...But I just signed up quick one day to bid on one box of cigars. Had I known the evil here would lure me in permanently, I would have come up with something more creative.
