thats really cool. the first band i was in was polisheroes. after we went our seperate ways i was and always will be a polishero. and that was very close to becoming my name here as well.
Short for "Mister Atoz," the keeper of the Atavachron in the Star Trek episode "All Our Yesterdays."
I'm such a geek.

About 5 years ago, I played Winning Eleven 7 on the PS2. There was a player on the Spanish soccer team with the last name "Valeron". I then changed the -on to -us.
And apparently, so did Valerus Investment Partners, Valerus Compression Services, etc.
And in Latin, it roughly means "we have power", so that's pretty cool.

Picture this if you will...
The majestic lion reclines in the shade... he gazes out across the savannah... the heat is intense... the great shaggy head slowly turns as he regally surveys his grassland kingdom, and his pride of lionesses with their cubs... Secure in the knowledge of his own power and vitality... he lazily flicks an ear to ward off flies... having fed recently, he is inclined to napping... the sun beats down...

My name is Joe, and I live in Colorado Springs. I'll probably change it to my full name here real soon, since I'll be moving.

I have a website about bongo drums called Link Removed and back when I first signed up here on TB my site was also a retail web store, selling drums. I read the CUP here and thought since I ran a music-related business I would be required to use my business name as a handle. It was only after I'd been here on TB for a bit that I heard about the EBMM Bongo, which is what people usually assume my handle is about. FWIW I later closed the retail aspect of my site.
the fact that I am a huge Selena fan and a girl bass player. I am also known as Selenawannabe b/c I been told I favored the late singer...I wish..but I tend to "dress" up like her sometimes.
Bass Girl is another nickname but I couldn't use it b/c apparently it is taken..

I went through about 5 names that were already in use before settling on this one. It's my old name I used to use on the IGN boards.
My name has absolutely no meaning whatsoever. Now, if you see a Dreagen, it's me. (Except for on YouTube, where it happened to be taken.)
Mine is hero incredible (sometimes mistaken for heroin credible), which is taken from my bands name. The name itself comes from the Tragically Hip song Save the Planet "And it sounds heroincredible, sound that makes the headphones edible".
Stumbo=Stumble Bum=made up combo word
A bum, stumbling around the streets, all liquored and drugged up, not know the day or time, incoherently talking to some unseen person, slowly falling to his knees, knowing that where he falls will be his home for the night.
