korgg Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 Never expected that. but google seems to love me :)...A quick search using my nick returned a link (teh first one) to a forum where i was a member (only one post there though)... Another nick that I use frequently is korggis, but some damn site gets the first result... But after that it's all me.. me, me, me :Cool Crying: But the power of google comes in when I search for my real familly name...Beside the poeple in my country whom I know no one listed by google, and between us, one of them bearly made it to highschool and another is a senator :D, I found one to be a symphonic music composer (not too bad, i might say) and another one to be a proffesional climber who's books and guides are recommended all over the internet.. And yea, he's from New Zeeland...i tried to contact them by mail, but I couldn't find any mailboxes.....So what about you ? :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted July 12, 2005 Report Share Posted July 12, 2005 My nickname is that used by my grand-daughters. Gradually everyone in the family has come to use it and even the dog knows who pops is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joysness Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 The short story..It's a pet name my boyfriend used.He's disappeared from my life but I like the name so I still use it. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 Your dog calls you "-pops-"?Not quite. I wrote that "the dog knows who pops is" meaning that if, say, the missus says something like "take it to pops" indicating to take me a newspaper/slippers/dog lead/etc., the dog knows who is meant. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catgate Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 I bought a "tired" farm house in the early 70's and brought it back to life, (and built on a granny flat for my parents and a garage/workshop for myself). Three years of damned hard work, but well worth it. We lived there until nearly five years ago. Oh yes, it was called Catgate Farm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belatucadrus Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 For reasons I forget I was looking up ancient British deities and found this page from some bunch of erm how can I put it in a PC sort of way " People with a non mainstream Philosophy" Belatucadrus well it actually fits me reasonably well, so I appropriated it.The only one who really disagrees is Vluhurg the preposterous and he's a loony. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurlyWhirly Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 My forum nickname came about for 2 reasons:1. I have liked Astronomy ever since I was a kid and as I (occasionally) use my 120mm refractor I got the nickname of Curly and it has stuck ever since! :blush: p.s. Curly Watts off Coronation Street. I don't watch the soap though I am glad to say! :D 2. Also I like CurlyWurly chocolate bars as it's my favourite! B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belatucadrus Posted July 13, 2005 Report Share Posted July 13, 2005 All these years I've thought it was some kind of monster out of Greek or Roman mythology... :rolleyes:No Celtic war god, mainly known because the Romans borrowed him and added him to Mars, shrines to the resultant Belatucadrus Mars composite deity can be found along Hadrians wall and in the lands of the barbarous Gauls.
