Simply, I like to iron. I have a top of the line Rowenta iron and it's amazing. 1400 watts of steaming power!

Also, when I started playing golf a few years ago, I got really good with my irons. Even to the point where i didn't use any woods.

I thought you were going to tell me your nick name was Rusty

My nickname is easy. It is just my name (first letter of my first name, and my last name). My dad made this nickname up when I was about 8 (I got my first e-mail when I was 8 (well, it wasn't my first e-mail) I created a yahoo account secretly... And to this day, I have no clue what the password was.... My username of my first e-mail was tjasko and my MSN and AIM and yahoo, and everything else....). :) So it kindof just stuck to me. And, it is pretty easy to type....

Put it togeter, and it spells tjasko. :)

This one would probably be difficult to guess on your own. I am a member of a martial arts club. So, the name is simply the letters of the name of the organization.
Wu's Tai Chi Chu'an Academy.

Check out International Wu Style Tai Chi Federation for more info.

I really enjoy this style of tai chi (there are many) because the forms are still intact from it's original roots (aka it's still taught the same as it was over 100 years ago by the same family who invented this specific style) and it has preserved all of the martial applications that the form is designed for. I know....I know...."Isn't tai chi a bunch of old people moving slowly in the park?".....that is certainly the most common version of this style. But, don't judge a book by it's cover.

That's my little rant. Thanks for listening. You may commence with the David Carradine jokes. :)

why would we do that grasshopper?

mines a bit weird. we were sitting around drinking one night and all decided we needed nicknames. we had a greek mate we called spic (he started it !) . well a few drinks later we all ended up with names starting with s . im half irish so it went irish potato spud ... the 42 came about due to spud not being long enough to use as a login and as we all know 42 is the answer to life the universe and everything !!!

Unit ZER0 · 10-11-07, 12:35 PM

UNIT ZER0 is a completely unimaginative original username I came up with when I was really into spy novels and secret agent stuff (still am). The first part comes from how spies are always referred to as "units" or "agents" and the last part is becaus I was always considered a "Zero" in school (teacher's pet, nerd you know how it goes) So like one of the fictional characters in my books said: "If your enemy has a good idea, Steal it." I took being a "Zero" and turned it into a strength.

(And, as you can see. I LOVE "24", Unit ZER0 sounds kinda like one of Jack Bauer's TAC team members... Maybe)

Nonentity does not only mean "nonexistent". It can be interpreted as a "common person".

However I chose it because as one of over 6 billion people on this plant I truly am a "nobody" in identity terms.

OK, I probably have my answer in here somewhere, but what the heck, here goes

When my wife was pregnant with out son we were trying to come up with a name for him. I was looking through the Bible for one, and found Uzziah. That became our joke name, because my wife thought it would never be that.
So we would joke about what we would call him if that was his name, like "Hay U, come here."

Just added the 0 to the end because I had done that on an old account so I could use my first name, it was kenneth0.

My name, smwoodcrafts, is my domain name. It stands for See-More Woodcrafts. See-More is a play on my last name Seymour. It's kind of silly to use this, I suppose, but I never had a problem with it being taken.

Thanks,

Dan Seymour
