Just a Question that I have often thought about....

[Timmay]

Ok you are all prolly thinking ....sh*t ...Timmj think??  Thats a miracle....but anyways, I have often noticed people when they mention my name in a post or what ever....or send me a PM..they always spell my name like it is on my screen name. Well I could save you all a step and tell you to omit the last M.  Im not complaining or anything but I just wonder if you all think I spell my name Timm or Tim.  Well its Tim.  Dont change anything...cause its starting to be my signature name ya know...I was just wondering...cause of all the weird ways people spell names anymore....like i said..I was just curious.

OK, it's Ti"m" NOT Ti"mm" 

You got it Tim. That's cool with me!

What about some of the other guys here? Is it Paul or Paulie?, Rob or The Meister?, JDog or Jesse. What about SlyinKC, is he Scott? And where did the name GaaSlick come from? This is getting confusing now!

We could use this thread to explain the derivation of our screen names.

Frostilicus in "Florida"!, you can go first. There must be some story to go along with that screen name!!

[Timmay]

Paul and Rob I dont know about....JDog is Jesse, Sly is not Scott...its Rick...and GASlick..is Georgia Slick....
LOL...
It would be interesting to hear where these screen names came from and WHY...so here we go....

WHERE DID YOUR SCREENNAME COME FROM AND WHY?

Mine was just something different.  My real full name is Joseph Timothy.  Back in school people use to call me Timmy Joe....just for fun.  Well when I was signing up on a few things I messed up and I couldnt use the timmyj or timj...so i resorted to Timmj...theres my story..so whats yours?

[sparkster123]

i thought of my name because of my line of work. im a electrician and evryone calls us sparkys.the name seems to be taken so i used sparkster.

[Rafter]

I'm a White Water Rafter. 
Nothing starts the heart a pumpin' like a "ride" down the mighty Chattooga and the Chattahoochee Rivers.

My actual name is James Robert. Had the unfortunate nickname of Jim Bob
in grade school. In high school I was known as "JR".
In college I started White Water Rafting, so behold the new and improved moniker, Rafter!

Here are some pics of myself and my "River Rat Gang" kayaking along the Broad River. Had to protect the bald noggin from the dangerous river rays with a cap.

[PBurke]

just don't call me late to a meal and we're good. i usually use paulie to tell between myself and yooper paul. but it really don't matter. just be careful that you can handle the repurcussions if i don't like what you call me.

[schro]

TIMMAY!

[Timmay]

YOU KILLLED KENNY!

TIMMAY!

This is exactly what I think every time I see Tim's name.  Only because it brings back good memories of when I was in college and we had a friend named Tim and anytime he came around we would yell "Timmay!"

[JDog]

JDog is a nickname that I acquired from a good friend of mine who likened my appearance to an inmate on a prison documentary who went by the name J Dog. All my workmates call me JDog now too

[Medic aka Rocko]

That's some sweet Austrailian sunlight gleaming off your noodle J Dog!!!   My "business" nickname obviously just reflects my profession as a paramedic.  I'm also known as "Rocko", which is the name of one of my fictional football players on Madden 07 (need to get 08).  And since joining the internet revolution, I've also been "hassolee" which is a play on the letters of another word.

You use Paulie because I started calling you that when you first starting coming around here...

I go by BaldRob, primarily because I'm bald and my name is Rob...

[Tyler]

I'm McLovin!


LOL!  That movie is hilarious.

I wanted to pick a screen name when I first started the site, but after thinking about it, I decided to just use my first name.  I thought as the founder of the site it would be a little more personable to new members.
