Wow, do you play professionally?

Me, I chose the name of my baby boy kitty (named after Percy Mayfield), hoping that I wouldn't be rejected for being a woman; so far I have been treated like a Queen

My Car.

At the time, and since 2004 I have been an active member of Audi forums. That board went to hell, but I decided to keep the name anyway for this forum.

Heres the answer to your question. I was checking out Kwoon's site last week and I remembered this link:

d is my first initial...sigma6 was a name used by Pink Floyd before they were big time.

No relation to the manufacturing standard, 6 sigma.

DR are my initials. ST are the initials of my alias.

I don't imagine mine is very hard to figure out for the SciFi fans...

“Stop!” she snapped.
Using the Voice again! He swung his attention back to her face.
“I hold at your neck the gom jabbar,” she said. “The gom jabbar, the high-handed enemy. It's a needle with a drop of poison on its tip. Ah-ah! Don't pull away or you'll feel that poison.”

Thanks for the link, I just checked out his site, what a vast collection of information. Piano Wizard, I see we share a love of Ella! What an angel of a voice.

JHEM · #17 Post by **JHEM** » Tue Feb 27, 2007 2:19 pm

I've been known professionally elsewhere on the WWW as CaptJHEM for many years, but I dropped the "Capt" here as it wasn't applicable.

Wish I had a more interesting tale to relate.....

Hey, can we say "I I Captain" (or is it Eye Eye Captain?) when we speak to you??

I've had this name for about 10 years...when I was 14, I was years away from knowing anything about business standards!

Google my user name (without 199) and you'll see. It is my favorite TV show (besides Star Trek, but who wants another Trek username on the internet?)

ronbo is a slangatized version of my name, the 613 comes from the "613 Spot" where my parents found me adrift in a lifeboat.

D@mn! Now all I can think of is SpongeBob! (Get that song out of my head!!!).

First initial, last name... in case anyone couldn't figure that out. Use it almost everywhere I (publicly) go on the net. If it's already taken, I append my zip code.

My best friend Dirk branded me with the nickname back in 1985 or so...

Haven't shaken it off yet!

As far as I'm concerned, Dirk = Geddy Lee. So, if HE branded you with a nickname, you had BETTER keep it.

Mine is my Amateur Radio callsign (Kilo Two Juliet Sierra Victory, or Keeping Two Jumpin, Screamin Virgins) not real creative... but yeah...

I have also been known to use..

JAYMZ

Big Metallica fan... so that is where the JAYMZ comes from... and 5329 is my shield number at work. (No, I'm not a cop)
