The reason for your name?

[Flesh for Nicky]

My name is Nick. When I was dating my wife back in the 85 ever other song on the radio that came on, I thought was done by Flesh For LuLu. She would always bust on me about that. Plus, I still love her Flesh. she is still the hottest thing to me.

I've been "XXX" for years - even before that Van Petrol goon starred in a movie by the same name. What does it mean? It's not as simple as the rating [:D] [i]XXX[/i] is the name of an album by Miguel Bose [8D]

Wozgo is my first name, and I wish Kimiiii wouldn't make fun of it [:(]
Mean schoolmates used to call me Gonzo too.

Armed to the hilt with mirror shades and a color graphing calculator.
... Oh yeah. Im actually secretly a genius. I buy the lastest and greatest in cacluators whenever they come out. Costs me a fortune...but I have a use for every last feature on the damnable things, for I spend my days developing integral equations and solving them because Im weird like that.

Anyways. Me and my girlfriend were having problems... mainly we just gotten too lusty to care anymore. It was headed for disaster, and finally fell apart. My friend Josh was an expert rebounder... although the subject came up. First off, when a girl calls me over, talks to me, finds my name, and asks me to sit with her... I assume its an everyday occurane (which it was back then).. I didnt think it may have meant that that she could have possibly liked me...cause Im dense as hell.

Then thats when only her friends and not so much as her were talking to me. This is when I start making annonymous letters appear at select locations in school computer labs... Of course I was like a freaking stalker. I would go to her class before it opened and write anonymous letters... Man I was pretty much a stalker.

So I needed a name to sign the letters and such with. I needed a name, and it had to be a song. So I opened my CD hoister and thumbed through my insets....
Kajagoogoo - White Feathers - Track 10.

Then of course she was bound to find out. She really did like me, but not in a physical way... this makes me angry...because someone would like me because my looks (hey, a few female persons do this)...then find out about my split/schitzophranic/just plain odd.. personality.
Very few like my personality.
Duh, you can observe that at nearly every forum I post at.

And some people find me funny....they are as obscure as new wave songs..but those people like find me crazy funny. One of which is my awesome girlfriend.

Thats it...the way-too-many-details version by Moi.

I take it you already know Maple and MatLab programming? I'd give my left nut if I could program on these as easy as it comes to engineers [xx(]

Hey, Wozgo "the Gonzo"! [:D] Hmmm, very "cute" name! Let me just repeat that: Wozgo, the Gonzo! Wozgo, the Gonzo! Wozgo, the GONNNNZOOOOOOO!!! [:D] (doesn't it just sound so goooood???!) In fact, I'm picturing you as a colorful clown right now! [:o)](ooops!) [:p]

You truly are the devil in disguise Miss Rubbeet. First Kimiiii and now you. You ought to be ashamed of yourself [}:)].

I wish I hadn't read your post on how you came up with your name. I always though it meant something dirty, and that I was just the only one here who didn't get it [:I]. But I was ok with that. Now the whole image is blown!

I remind you of these hoodlums?

I would've preferred Fozzie. Someone might have mixed it up with Fonzie and mistaken me for a cool dude.

[Frayo]

Only some of Maple. Im not that great at maple.

I'd prefer it if there were ways to input the symbols from your calculator to the computer easier... for I can work the mechanics of a calculator pretty decent. I have a color screen icon-driven Casio...and yeah, you basically have to memorize eons of menus and sub-menus to get to use it well.

I dont know where Im going with this.

Named after a New York Dolls song.

[manekineko]

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v706/maneki_neko_kawaii/afe035ea.jpg">

Manekineko means "beckoning cat" or "welcoming cat" in Japanese. The image of the welcoming cat is very common in Japan and China, where it is used to welcome visitors to businesses and shrines. It is a sign of hospitality and prosperity. Manekineko was the most popular cat in Japan until Hello Kitty came along.

I lived in Japan for three years and I have a collection of manekineko in the form of statues, noren (door curtains), and cards. My Japanese friends still send me gifts of manekineko.

Anybody else want to share what their username is all about?

[abacab66]

My life seemed to really "start" in 1982 when I got my 1st job (busboy at a kosher reataurant) and I mentioned to someone that I liked the band Genesis. Unfortunately I was a newbie to the band and music in general, so when I didn't know that Peter Gabriel was an early member of what they called "The Real Genesis" I was given the Abacab name for the latest album. Since abacab was already taken on AOL when I 1st signed up I added "66", my birth year.

BTW - I still love Genesis and the Peter Gabriel era the most.

[waukena]

I played in punk bands in the late 70s, early 80s...being 20 and not wanting to use my real boring last name, I needed a better one...one morning my friend Pat and I were driving in Long Beach on Long Island. As we sat at a light he pointed to the street sign for W. Waukena Ave. and said "Look, Wayne Waukena Ave.", and a new last name was born...and it's just hung around all these years...

[ben_at_work]

My name derived from all the wonderfull people on the boards. I once was Benmoe and now I'm Ben At Work.
