Tool is one of my favorite Bands. Such awesome music and lyrics. They are up there with Depeche Mode, The cure and Days of the New.

Sy... seems we share the same taste in music! (have killer tickets to see the Cure in the spring!)

Mine I'm not proud of but it stuck. Younger days, (20yrs ago) our hangout pub, big scrap, threw a guy through a glass wall... I'm told smiling the whole time. Next day they had a mug engraved "Don668, the neighbor of the beast" Again I'm not proud, but its what I've always used since.

Hackers ... mmm Angelina!

Pugwash is the handle I use on the less reputable sites where I don't use my real name. It started out as a name I used in piracy circles in the 1980s, as Captain Pugwash is my favourite pirate.

what a great thread idea...really cool to see what all of your usernames mean.

I'll post mine, because its SO original, in a few.

When I originally started going on forums, I really wanted Pepe. When I was at U of S, I wrote for the campus newpaper under the pen name Pepe Cortez (my real name is Curtis). As all the forums I wanted to join had Pepe already taken, I used the name of my co-writer, Miquel Sanchez.

Great stories keep it going. I posted this to truly see that Flavor Flav really is....

**$~mLuMaN83~$** · 07-31-2007, 03:38 AM

M's my first initial and Luman is my last name. nuthin special

**By-Tor** · 07-31-2007, 03:47 AM

My username comes from the Rush song "By-Tor and the Snow Dog".. from one of their early albums "Fly By Night".

Ironically, it's one of my least favorite songs (and albums) from the band. I picked it because it sounds cool.

**frogman** · 07-31-2007, 03:55 AM

I love reading and learning about the original Frogmen that started the Panerai craze....I really got interested in the history of the company and where they came from.

I guess my obsession with Pams spawned FROGMAN!....THE END!

**Meridius** · 07-31-2007, 04:22 AM

General Maximus Decimus Meridius. . . Gladiator is one of my favorite movies, but "Maximus" seems to go fast on forums, so I tried out Meridius and ended up sticking with it.

Wickedbrew stems from my enjoyment of something that is a wicked brew - Absinthe

**VGHM player** · 03-05-2008, 03:52 AM

VGHM Player = is the result of four family members getting together for a family golf tournament in 2005 at Myrtle Beach South Carolina. I won the inaugural event in singles and team compititon.Each letter stands for a family member's name.

In 2006 I successfully defended my team title with no help from partner "M" - loser. His name is on the trophy but with an asterik * for not finishing the 4 day tournament. Like Roger Marist breaking Babe Ruth's single season home run record he has and asterik.

**stevie7s** · 07-31-2007, 04:50 AM

I was in Atlantic City 3 years ago and started playing craps for the first time. They told me that I should roll either a 7 or 11 on the out roll to win before setting a point...I rolled a 7, 7 times in a row.

Hence Stevie7s...been hooked ever since on tha damn game.

I wanted to find a picture that showed more than just him in case people did not recognize him from the show.

Pug by Spock do you mean they are making more Star Trek movies?
