I agree. This turned out better than I thought it would.

[WAMz4]

I have been using WAM as my gaming initials since the days when Arcade games only accepted three letters, I filled the top score list of many classic games with "WAM" like Asteroids, Battle zone, Tempest. Just aged myself didn’t I. And you gotta admit, when seen at the top of a high score list, it makes a good exclamation! WAM - actually stands for Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. I figured from one prodigy to another. I still use it for games but for this forum I added the Z4 of course.

[Finnegan]

Pretty cool thread! I didn't have high hopes for it at first, but I'm pleased I was wrong. Lots of interesting stuff!

[Beedub]

Beedub.

Bee= forist name byron, every calls me Bee
Dub= surname= walker, dub is taken from a shortened version of double you.

[LHB]

For obvious reasons, all of my past girlfriends started calling me LusciousHoneyBoy once our relationships progressed to a more intimate level.

Hence, "LHB." I realize that in the age of internet stalking, this could be extremely dangerous, but "danger" is my middle name, though not in my username.

[JPWEraser]

Eraser was my gamer tag back when I played Counterstrike and other online games. Just added my initials to the beginning because Eraser was getting more popular. Pretty simple I suppose.

[16thBMW]

Self-explanatory... Its to honor the great cars BMW has built through the years.

3 gave their lives to save my offspring; one died of natural causes (200+k miles), most of the rest were sold with 100+k to people who would love them the way we had. Z4 is my favorite, but that dark blue 2002 was so much fun...you could really toss that little devil around and she begged for more; she'd see the twisties and whisper, "Let's go have some fun!!!"

I use 12th BMW on some other forums, since it seems impossible to get your name changed (apparently they're not concerned about protecting the innocent...sorry, old TV line).

Freude am (sechs und dreisig Jahre BMWs) Fahren...

I just thought it was based one of those new BMW naming conventions like XDrive550ixSACLciM...

Freude am Fahren (und Nennen)...

My name is Alex Usher and I have a PharmD degree. Simple as that. :-)

[uter]

Uter is the name I use on all BMW forums going back to 2001 on Roadfly and Bimmerfest.

He is, of course, from The Simpsons.

[Skelekitty]

Skelekitty is a character I made up in 2005 as a joke when I was asked to donate a piece of art to a cat rescue's annual auction/fundraiser. I thought it would be hysterically funny to donate a Dia de los Muertos** skeleton cat catching a skeleton mouse for a kitty rescue. That's just how I roll. Here's the art quilt that started it all:


A friend of mine saw it and said "Get ready to make these for the rest of your life." He was not kidding. Since then, I've made art quilts, drawings & paintings of Skelekitty and even think of her as a separate entity. She has her own website (skelekitty.com) AND her own line of rubber art stamps. I've also branched out into a line of "Skelecritters," doing several skele-doggy portraits for people.

Oh, and did I mention this?



**Dia de Los Muertos is the Mexican celebration "Day of the Dead" remembering the lives of those who have passed on - no, I'm not a Latina (how white is "Sandvik?"), but I am a California native and used to live in San Francisco's Mission District aka Latin American neighborhood.

[Rick Hunter]

Just the name of a main cartoon character from a show I watched when I was young.



Rick Hunter wasn't a superhero or anything, but he was a pretty ace fighter pilot and ended up commanding a starship in his elder years. Gotta love Robotech :-D

I don't remember this one, but it looks like Speed Racer (which I DO remember from ye olde days) in the air.
