Most of the time there is a meaning to you usernames but only you know it.
Mine is my car, year of car, year of birth.
just a bored random thought.
The first real custom thing I did to my first car, an '86 Cougar GS, was to buy a set of Cragar wheels for it. That was back in '98 or so...
My car sits low enough it only needs one "m" to describe it.
I own a Cougar that has very little road clearance. Put a 20oz soda bottol on its side on the ground and I'll try and go over it but it will get stuck under the car.
*innocent whistling*

Just noticed it's Post #1000. Guess I'll have to keep my mouth shut for a few hours to bask in the glory...nah! :D
yeah some ar obivious. you and Chuck's, umm Eric's but alot are not
First car (got it in high school) was a red '90 Mustang LX 2.3L. I originally signed up with the name Red_LX over on stangnet way back in '98, and I've used that nickname at a ton of other sites since then.
I used to bust tires for a living and so I started using the name when I first got online with MSN, somebody had the name so I spelled it with a Y instead.
Mine means I'll kick your ass biatch! LOL
No, just kidding.... I am only 5' tall, (little) and I helped a trucker once find a detour around a bridge in the town I grew up in because the bridge was too low for his clearance. I gave him an alternate route, and he called me an( angel) for it... 11-98 is when my daughter was born.
Nickname has always been "moose" but that was too generic so I added my initials to the beginning and end. Had this nickname since early 98
I got a 5.0 in my Cougar - who knew?
When I first bought the cougar, I intended to put a Cobra motor in it, hence the venom. Being an 86 cougar (cat), I just put it all together.
BTW, shameless plug, but it's still for sale.
When we first got a computer and the internet back around 98/99 (so I was 10-11 at the time), I tried for days to think of a catchy, clever nickname to use on AOL. kingcars is what I came up with (yeah, I failed at a clever nickname, even though theres a show out now called King of Cars on TLC), and sometimes I'll add 66 to the end, which is the year of my dad's Chevelle.
started using it on a computer forum a few years ago (it was my FAVORITE car of all) and i use it in a lot of places and figured id keep it here. i was gonna be like "Five-Oh Cougar" or something, how original!!!! :giggle: but for some reason i just feel rather attached to this one so i didnt want it to be different here.
i still do love those cars by the way. if i had to choose any supercar it would be that one. yes i would choose it over the ferrari enzo and YES over a mclaren f1.
I think mine pretty much explanes itself
I have a 5.0 and it goes (when it wants to)
I liked how it flowed so I went with it.
My lastname is Bacso (realistically pr0nounced as Bacho, rhyming with nacho), and 99% of the time it's mispelled to Basco, like Tabasco, so I told people it's not written baSCo it's written as baCSo like back-so or baXo
And there you have it.
:rolleyes: ;) do i really need to explan mine? i think it speaks for it self :D ;)
Mine's taken from the Norse god of poultry...
Meh, I started out with darkthunder (name of my 85TC, and blackbird was used). But I had a different username on the many boards/sites I frequent. Recently I consolidated everything into Ether (where possible). It's one of my favorite words that means a variety of things from fuel to the heavens to magic (FF Fans know what I mean) and it just seemed like a perfect fit. The number is actually a verse that changed my life.
Mine is Self explanatory.
my last name
just kept it simple when i sighed up
Mine is what I plan to turn my bird into. Mind you I had the name back when I had another bird, and one warpped plan.
had an american '89 3.8L Thunderbird with a set of rare GFX, that I swapped in a '90 XR-7 M5R2 tranny into, then I was going to twin turbo it. spun a bearing before I got that far, stripped and sped it.
If I get left out in the sun too long I turn brown, sprout hairs, and smell kind of funny. With 5 daughters, ya gotta instill some fear in the boys. A father of a son has only one pen 15 to worry about. A father of daughters has to worry about all of them.
I need a new one,KITZDNM,Thats me.
mine is pretty old, I have been a Mark Martin fan since his ASA days, when I got online, he was running cup (6) and Busch (60), so used martin0660. I've just kept it all these years.
Bob Myers
I "created" this nickname when I signed up here, My first choices was already in use, So, I'm a real Ford fan, but in a bird/coug I guessed to have more specific (Tbird), and I'm soooo maniac of My '85 Bird, so the "Tbird Maniac" in one word...
Regards,
Dom.
Everyone says I'm hard on my tires, and I saw it on the side of a truck. Looked cool, so I took it.
I have usually used "trigrhpy" but, I don't play to many games anymore. That and I have an XR7 and just threw cat at the end. It sounded good when said, kinda sung.
My name is Vincent,all my friends have always called me Vinnie,and I've had a bunch of T-Birds.....Vinnietbird.
He is just one happy looking dude.
BTW: I had no idea there was a friut rollup thing going on, maybe I should change it.

You would prolly never guess mine.
When I used to work at a pizza place, my manager who didnt know me very well ( Funny cause now he is in my band and married my best freinds sister), Forgot my name and wrote haystack on my clock in card. I asked him why. He said because I had long dirty blonde hair at the time, and it reminded him of a haystack.
I tried to get away from that name for so long. Finally I just embraced it. I actually like the name alot.
I used to go by FloridaTurbo, because I was in Florida, and owned a TC. That got confusing when I moved to WA :D
I got this when I was in 8th grade. It's an Aston Martin model.
One guess......
Yup, it's my dad's name (and my grandfather's name, and my great-grandfather's name).... who I just happen to be named after....
87-year of my car, badbird-obviously my car description, 26-my birthday and 13-my dads birthday or my lucky number!
I saw a Cougar with the Personalized Plate "COUGRRR" Thought it was cool, and my Cougar has a 5.0(302) in it. Idk why I put 302, just sounded better. Had just Cougrrr on cougarnuts, but I changed it. Depending on the car I change it. On Escape-Central, my name is Killer B... the nickname of my DD.
88turbo - my 88 TC DUH :birdsmily:
mine is for one of my favorite nascar drivers..... Dale Earnhardt Sr. but most of you probably can already figure that out for yourself lol
I guessed a BIT:hick: :D
Dom.
May I have you’re attention; there is royalty on this board. I present you all ChuckW the IV
LOL.Everybody bow down as he passes by.
Copied from my introdution thread (it's WAY to early to retype it all) :
Story goes like this: I was an air crew Photographer's Mate in the Navy and used to hang out in the squadron ready rooms when I wasn't on duty and played RISK with the pilots. I was never defeated in a fair game. (several pilots ganged up on me one night, only way they could beat me) One night the Air Wing Commander wanted to play, so we had 5 guys including me in the game. He couldn't get a handle on my strategy as I would attack at seemingly random spots on the board, take one country and end my turn. After about an hour of every one else having these long drawn out battles and me taking a quick easy country, he got a little miffed, jumped up and said, "This is just mayhem, you don't have any strategy, this is just absolute mayhem!"
The nickname stuck and a week later one of the squadron commanders tagged me with it for and official call sign. Call signs are not often given to enlisted personel so it was a big honor for me. A few months later the ships captain saw a set of photos that I took of a russian frigate on high rez film. I had blown one frame up more and more until you could read the label on a bottle of vodka sitting in a porthole in the superstructure. So he asks who took them them and some one told him, 'MAYHEM'. He says, "Would that be Ensign Mayhem or Commander Mayhem?" The reply was "No, just Mayhem in general." So that stuck too and I was General Mayhem from then on.
Several years later I was really into playing combat flight sims online. I got Fighter's Anthology and registered for an online account but MAYHEM was already taken. So I put a star on both ends, representing a BRIGADIER GENERAL's star. and there you have it.
Aren't you glad you asked? :D
Heh. I got the "OOoooooooo"'s during graduation from HS (WAAAYYY back when in that time known as the '80's)...it was funny.
I'm trying to convince my g/f that when we have a kid and if it's a boy to make it the 5th.....but she's not buying it :p
I.P.S.D. It works out to be. Insane Psycho Steve Demon.
-nothing too complicated. i own some t-birds, some rangers (GTs) and some SHOs. im on forums for all of them, so i just kinda combined them into one word. i use it pretty much everywhere because no one else has it. i used to be "the bullitt" back in the late 80s up till 2001 because of my original ranger gt i bought when i graduated college. it was monotone silver, (silver bullet...)and you didnt see that, on a ranger, back then. so they just said the bullet, it stuck , i changed it to b-u-l-l-i-t-t because of the movie, and used that until it was wrecked in '01 and out of respect for the 358,000 miles she gave me, i changed it.
my bird use to be blue, it's an 84, and it has a 302...
mine comes from the the process of lining up the DNA strands in the midacondriea of white blood cells the scientist name was Dr. Kyle Mac Millain and he discovered it in the year 2000
so yeah hes my hero
460 bird
Gee, your Tbird looks awfully slow...
HAHA! thats hilarious just because we use to call this chick at school Tucan Sam Cause of her nose(she was a Bi and a liar anyways). Then she Transfered schools!
He was my Favoriate also. i have boxes of his stuff. My Uncle/ God Father(RIP) was a fan of his and that is how i became a fan of Nascar and the Earnhardts.
Yeah mine is pretty self explanatory,Its a TBIRD,Its BAD,And its #1 to Me.:birdsmily:
I am still guessing after 3 years of joining this board, im still the only Mexican....
At that time i was very proud of my shiny 85 Cougar...
Now im a proud owner of a "yard ornament", but hell, i still love that car...
Yep, MexCougar.....
(http://teaca.iespana.es/cougar/LS.jpg)
year,car,project name.... muwahahhaa you'll see
Mine is quite self explanatory my fox is a 20th Anniversary with the ever so popular 5.0
I loved the boss 351 mustang, and wanted to make a clone out of mine a long time ago, its been a screen name for a long time, usually its the boss, or just boss, for some reason i put da in front of it this time, don't remember why, must of been in a ghetto mood:hick:
My name...:hick:
+
I used to have a '67 XR-7 when I was in high school (I miss it!)...
+
My parents bought the '87 20th Ann. Ed. my junior year in h.s.(I started driving it regular when in college the '67 died.)...
+
To continue my Cougar tradition my very first (and only to date) new car purchased by myself is my '97 30th Ann. Ed. I special ordered it from the local dealer with every possible option, and waited an agonizingly long 6 weeks for it to arrive.
I don't have the '67 anymore...but it's in the screen name out of respect for starting it all. ;)
1st 3 letters are my initials
guess on the rest
Lets dissect.

crystal
O.E. cristal "clear ice, clear mineral," from O.Fr. cristal, from L. crystallum "crystal, ice," from Gk. krystallos, from kryos "frost," from PIE base *kru(s)- "hard, hard outer surface" (see crust). The mineral has been so-called since O.E.; it was regarded by the ancients as a sort of fossilized ice. As a shortened form of crystal-glass it dates from 1594.

A homogenous solid formed by a repeating, three-dimensional pattern of atoms, ions, or molecules and having smooth external surfaces with characteristic angles between them. Crystals can occur in many sizes and shapes. ◇ The particular arrangement in space of these atoms, molecules, or ions, and the way in which they are joined, is called a crystal lattice. There are seven crystal groups or systems. Each is defined on the basis of the geometrical arrangement of the crystal lattice.
A natural or synthetic material, such as quartz or ceramic, that consists of such crystals. When subjected to mechanical stresses, crystalline materials can generate an electric charge or, when subjected to an electric field, they can generate mechanical vibrations in what is known as the piezoelectric effect.
An electrical device, such as an oscillator or a diode used for detecting radio signals, made of such a material.
crystalline adjective
