I hope I'm worthy of the organs I have.
I play musical instruments.
337 has just been a special number to me, my favorite song by my favorite band is 3:37 minutes long. I always catch it on the clock.

Just kinda popped into my head. My brain works like that. Maybe something to do with the funny chemicals I used to put into it many many years ago. Maybe inherited, my dads brain kinda worked like that, minus the chemicals.
I played 4 string exclusively and am a physicist by training. Just plugged "4 string" and "string theory" together.
Cept.... As of a week ago, I switched to 5 string . Crap.

It has been soooo long now... But yeah. Gimme a Phoenix Hawk n' a prayer.You play Battletech? OutstandingI'll break out the minis and maps
Right on! I'll take a Centurion. Yeah I haven't played actively for a decade, just a couple of pickup games trying to teach my daughter how to play.
pitagorin poucak is croatian for pythagoras' theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2). i was looking for an available youtube username (my usual, Rookie, was already taken) and that popped int mind 'cause i was calculating something earlier that day .. so whenever Rookie is taken, i go with this one, and i must say, i like it even more. it's hard to find a unique and recognizable nick these days
My brother played games under the name I am policeman and I decided to join his group of "I ams" and I decided lampshade.

Godofthunder59, reference to Gene Simmons and my birth year. Gene's playing and attitude were big influence. Right up there with Paul, Entwistle and Jim Lea. I was so shy when I was young the concept that you could don a persona and be something else appealed to me. Now the stage is the only place I really feel like I am at home.
I'm kind of embarrassed. I have no originality. I'm from Alaska. I'm left handed. I play bass. Can I get any duller than that????
A co-worker noticed how calm I remained when things got squirrely. He called me that and it stuck.
