How Did You Come Up With Your CC.NET Handle?

Fat in a can.

 

DA= first two letters of my first name
RO=first two letters of my last name

I used DARO on my e-mail and when I registered I couldnt think of anything else.I had no idea I'd be stuck with it for years.

 

Prempeh was the king of Ghana in the late 1800's and early 1900's. He was exiled by the British to the Seychelles, where he lived in my family's house for 24 years. My grandmother still lives there today.

 

from one of my favorite movies.

 

I like to fish a lot.

 

So you like to "fly" fish???

 

I got mine from the movie Sandlot and 88 is after my fav athlete Lindros

 

When I hung out in the chat I used to use the name Rocks2000, and Rocks2001, but decided that it was to much trouble to constantly change my name so I decided to change my name to a name that represented the new millenium and the new age of Rockets basketball. I replaced 2000 and 2001 in the name with millenium, and thus RocksMillenium was born!

 

the last three letters of my last name are:


s-k-i

 

When I first started working at Compaq as a network tech, we had these radios we kept with us to communicate with each other (pre-Nextel days). My call sign was "x34". It kind of stuck with me as a nickname with friends I used to work with there....

Do you want a s'more? S'more of what? No, do you want a s'more? I haven't had anything yet, how can I have s'more of nothing? You're killing me Smalls! Sandlot...one good flick...

x34

 

i like to fish too.

my name came from...

yup.

 

Duh.


Smallz is actually franchise_3, but he didn't want to be confused as a rockets fan because he is actually only a Francis fan. Just to clear things up.

 

Why wait for Curry? "gettinhasselled" works on so many levels (including your reason for the current name), and has the coolness quotient of promoting an "underdog" player.

 

first initial of first, name, + my last name

 

I am a Kid Rock fan (not ashamed of it) and my favorite # is 8. Also kidrock8 sounds like "kid rocket" so I figured, "What the hell?"

 

Well, my nick used to be RunninRaven, which is the mascot for the San Jacinto Community College basketball team that Steve Francis went to. I used to attend all the home games.

Then I lost a bet.

 

Since Detlef Schrempf was the only German NBA player at the time, I chose to take that nick because I thought it was so ridiculous. Can't believe I am still using that nickname, it has to be one of the stupidest they ever came up with...

I think I need something new, even more stupid. Like DIRK the LURKer...but I post too much for that by now...hmm...any better suggestions?

Good topic, by the way...

 

This is true...

 

If you really want to know, read the story:

when you hit a game winner in a game 7 in the NBA Finals and then you push down John Starks and jump in the air to pump your fist....you deserve to have your nickname used by some fan somewhere on some message board.
