Hmm...It's hard to pick a screen name for someone you know nothing about. I mean, where you're from or what you're like or anything else.

For instance, I originally chose Deep_Blue on chats because my eyes are that color and it was the only thing I could come up with.

That and the LETTERS D and B stand for a lotta things that pertain to me.

For examples:

(D)ain (B)ramaged (switch the beginnings around :wink: )

(D)amn (B)iker

(D)umb (B)astard

etc.

The letters "dB" are an abbreviation used in electronics terminology to denote units (decibels) of audio amplitude or RF signal strength. (I was a signal corps tech in the Army)

One of my childhood idols was named D.B. (Cooper)



See? Most people's screen names usually mean something to them or describe them somewhat.

I dunno enuf about ya to vote either way.

Well, you drive Carmageddon cars, don't you?

Seein' as yer still learnin' how to build C2 cars- I wouldn't get into anything you built right now and drive it-but you HAVE to to test it out after ya make it.

That would make you a Suicide Jockey. ('70s American trucker CB radio slang for a driver hauling explosives/flammables-a crazy, daredevil driver-or someone who, despite all the odds against him-drives a falling apart POS truck/car down the road and somehow miraculously survives the trip.)

Then there's that old Ray Stevens song about the crazy "George of the Jungle" guy that swung around crashing into trees and stuff that played a guitar and wanted to be a rock 'n roll star- GITARZAN (pronounced "GITarZAN")

'Gitarzan'

He's free as the breeze, He's always at ease He lives in the jungle and hangs by his knees As he swings through the trees without a trapeze In his B.V.D.'s

He's got a union card and he's practicing hard To play the guitar Gonna be a big star, yeah, he's gonna go far And carry moon beams home in a jar

He ordered Chet's Guitar course C.O.D. Makes "A" and "E" and he's working on "B" Digs "C" and "W" and "R" and "B" And me and the chimpanzee agree that one day soon he will be a celebrity

Chorus

Git it, git it, git it, git it...OW! Gitarzan, he's a guitar man He's all you can stand Give him a hand, Gitarzan Ahhh (Jungle Yell), Ahhh, Ahhh

He's got a girl named Jane with no last name Kinda homely and plain but he loves her just the same Cuz she kindles a flame and it drives him insane When he hears her sing, she really does her thing It's her claim to fame, come on, sing one Jane

Baby, baby Ow, baby, baby (scat) Baby, baby

Well, they got a pet monkey He likes to get drunky And sing boogie woogie and it sounds real funky Come on, your time boy, sing one monkey

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Let's hear it for the monkey On saturday night they need some excitement Jane gets right and the monkey gets tight And their voices unite in the pale moonlight And it sounds all right, yeah, it's dynamite, it's out of sight Let's hear it right.....now

Baby, ahhh, baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Baby, ahhh, baby, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh Chorus

Git it, git it, git it, git it...ow! Gitarzan and his jungle band They're all you can stand Give 'em a hand Gitarzan

hrmm... never botherd to think about my nick here... i actualy took it from a strategy game named earth 2150... as the Kruszchev tank (tank chassie actualy... you can build your own wehicles by selecting varius chassies and so on) was my favorit wehicle of my armys... almost used it exlusivly... That was before i got any what soever knowlege in soviet history... wich i think it very intresting... Anyway some might think that i choose the name cuz of the soviet leader Chrustojov (wich is pronunced the same way :crazy:)

Now if id join my nick would mutch likly have something to do whit pirates... I seem to be quite found of pirate tacktics (in spacegames) and i like their way of life... lawless :shock:... kinda reflects on my wehicles aswell... theoreticly junkheaps wich whitstands alot but not mutch more :crazy:

Or demons... i like them... evil... and lawless

Anyway... the point is that you can choose whatever nick you like... once you chosen it... well it kinda sticks and you dont realy seem to get rid of it (atleas what i think)... But think twise so peps dont missunderstand the meaning of the nick tho... like if your nick would be... love horse Ass... you might mean... ermm... cant think of anything what it could mean exept what it says... Well ye get the point... AND NO, I DONT USE THE "love horse Ass" name as something i mean on myself... Cuz i realy dont like horse asses :crazy:, and its just a mear example

I had a few nicks before I chose Errol. They were mainly crappy and lasted about a week each. If anyone has read the discworld series by Terry Pratchett they'd know where I got my nick from. And it's not because I have a big nose (I don't), it's because I always get the woman at the end :wink:

When I changed my name by deedpoll I actually set Errol as my middle name too! And some chaps I met online before meeting in real life (most of the #carma peeps) call me Errol rather than my real name.

I never knew you chose Errol as your middle name.

Your name is TOTALLY funkier now! :lol:

Does Dee still want you to change it, though?
