    Sorry if there was already a thread on this some time in the past - I don't recall seeing one.

    What's up with Dan Higgs Beard? Did the beard wish to be a member but Dan did not?

    Mine is even more simple then it appears. WIN is my initials.

    Next?

    I wish I did something more original, but I picked mine because Clyde was and is my favorite player...

    When I registered, I wanted my handle to be Vernon Dozier (my favorite Phil Hendrie "character") but I put it in the wrong space. I think I put it in the 'AIM handle' section or something like that.

    So Vernon Dozier was supposed to be my handle and ima_drummer2k was supposed to be my password. :mad:

    And NO, my password is nothing like ima_drummer2k so don't try to hack my account.

    I like willy wonka. I have a yahoo email named oompahead. over a period of time, because it was easy to enter on videogames, it shortened to oomp.

    Mine's a double-anagram of my real name.

    That was after dTown333 got banned.

    I had another handle before this...

    but this one is pretty simple, I go to the University of Dayton, and they are the Dayton Flyers, and I am a huge basketball fan, so there ya go.

    My high school team name is the flyers. My name I made up quickly just to read the board. I like to go to Austin and I was born in 70, if I could change it I would.

    I am a huge Red Sox fan who is also a Rockets fan (know that it is hard to believe that sometimes, heh) that doesn't have much originality when it comes to choosing handles.

    I used to be a wizkid at school, so I start using that as a moniker :p

    Also I played magic the gather, a game made by wizard of the coast, so wizkid seemed like a good fit.

    I also probably just taken a wizz right before i used this moniker/sn for the first time so it stuck.

    In high school I had ass-length hair and smoked a lot of the dojah. I started using this r****ded name on message boards and never stopped.

    Yeah, I am TOTALLY over the name. People on the net tend to assume I look like this:
    [​IMG]

    In reality, my hair is brown.
