I chose my username because I have been a computer geek my whole life, I started home-brewing computers back in the late 70,s. So in computer terms im a senior citizen. My avatar because I loved revenge of the nerds Skolnick rules
ThrowoutPC You may get the vision of a defenestrated personal computer from my user name. However it has nothing to do with computers. The most common deployment system for main parachutes, on a sport skydiving rig, is the throw out pilot chute. I've been known to jump out of perfectly good airplanes several hundreds of times. Although I must admit that I like the possible double meaning.
Well I am tosbsas TOS - Tübinger Offensive Stadtmission - Christian Church in Southern Germany - town of Tübingen.

Jaguar XJ12 is the best car ever made. As an proud owner of a -96 and member of the Swedish Jaguar Club, I spend most of my summer days cruising around in it. Hence the choice of name.
Let me make a simple deduction here to let you guys figure out how my nickname came to be: I like anything with an engine on or in it. I like to rev said engines. Alot. Engines tend to blow up after extended periods of being under my ownership. My friends find that amusing and call me Revs. I thought the Z fits better than the s, thus RevZ. Oh, my actual name is Kevin though.
Myrrh is (was?) a record company that published my favorite music back in the 80s. My full username on various bulletin boards (300 baud modem!) was Myrrh, A Division Of Word Inc. but that got shortened over the years. I have another name and another avatar I use most places. Because I don't want the activities here linkable to any other of my online presence. The avatar image I use here was created by me and I think several others here have "borrowed" it over the years. edit: (that was the "pirate genuine MS software" logo, the new one is something different)
VladXed666 Well My Name is Vladimir Xedric.... and I have a 666 looking birthmark figure on my back... so that pretty much explains my name... as for the avatar.... I just love alienware computers... I just love the way they look.... Proud Owner of a Top of the Line m15x rig...
A former girlfriend chose mine. When we started dating I was a pretty healthy and athletic guy (apart from the nasty smoking habit). I used to to skiing, abseilling, free climbing, mountain climbing... A year or so into the relationship I opened a cybercafe (followed by another two within a year), and the business took over my life. Stopped exercising and spent a lot of time sitting down and eating. In a couple of years of that routine I put a fair bit of weight and my six pack became a much simpler one-pack. I presume it wasn't much fun being with me either, absorbed as I was in the business. One morning she woke up, gave me a long stare and said "This is like in the fairytale but reversed. Once upon a time there was a Princess who found a Prince, kissed him, and he turned into a toad..." I tried to see the funny side of it (The Wind in the Willows is one of my favourite books of all times) and so MrT0ad was born... as the relationship died. She's long gone, so are my cybercafes, but the nickname stuck
Wow that sounds familiar... BeeJay just stands for "B.j.", the first 2 letters of my name, since many ppl have problems pronouncing my real name, they just started calling me that. My Avvy is pretty self explanatory I guess, Canada is the home of my heart, especially Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. I live in Europe most of the time, but when I close my eyes, I see the rugged coastline of C.B. and I smell the BBQ...
My name is the Italian word for Navision . it reflects my love for Italy and quests . O and the avatar is a picture of me.
Well I choose 3sidedcube due to the fact that 2 is squared and 3 is cubed and I suppose it depends on also what dimension you look at things. I have a philosophy of that time will show you what you want to see it depends on how long you are willing to wait to see it.
"Genuine" cause my classmates used to call me that. DON'T ask why... 555 because I don't like 666 My avatar popped up after a google search on "gen" Been using this name for ages..
My username is more of a combination of my first name and last name. Niek - Ess . . . . . (Not saying last part. ) Old usernames: [SoH]Chief, [DFS]Delta, Avatar/AvatarDutch.
I chose my handle because I used to live in a studio downstairs from a band here in the usa named Exodus,and my real name is Dan-The avatar,well obviously I was getting screen captures from The Wall movie.
J. L. Gager - Mine is my first and middle initials and my last name. The avatar I just found randomly thought it fit my life well because that is all I seem to do these days.
