My dad started me hussling pool at a very early age.. about 6 or 7. We used to play father-son spin-offs to griff tactics and swindle sharks.
My dad passed on in '93 and I started hussling pool at the stripclubs that I worked as a DJ for, for many years. The girls started calling me KATTDADDY because I would work drinks into my schemes... So, every time I won.. the fool would have to by a round of drinks for all the ladies!!! I really enjoyed that because I would get kickbacks from the club manager, which came from the bar tab. Everyone knows that customers that buy ladies drinks pay more for those drinks for the ladies in principle, although the ladies drinks are the same thing that the customer gets.. but club-owners are not dumb. Neither are the ladies, If you say no to them for a drink, whats the likelyhood that they are going to say no to you..... at least that is the primary psychology behind it for most.. but all in all, its the same old hussle wear clothes from a different sheep.

my avatar is pretty simple.. who doesn't love jedi- squirrels.

My turtleburger is another one that I use.

Princess is one of the nicknames my fiance calls me. Metal comes from my preference for metal music and the fact that I make metal chainmaille jewellery.

I just realized I haven't put an avatar up yet but I usually use either an eye (mine with my amber contact in--matches my copper jewellery) or a profile shot of me where you can't see my face.

I've no avatar to explain yet.. But my screen name comes from a name I use in my hobby as well as a name i use in an alternate lifestyle. That hobby being historical reenactment (specifically SCA). It's an 11th century Mongolian name.. the full name being Droz'd Beshenyi ....which translates to "the mad (or insane) raven"...

Such wonderful stories. I've enjoyed reading them.

Not very inventive with my nick. It's my name. On a lot of sites, Angelique is already taken (by people who have less right to it than I, LOL) so I added my birthday. I use it all over the web and have since I started on the internet.

My avitar is me, several years ago. Everyone likes that pic, except anti smokers, so I figured it would fit in well here.

Mordred or Modred (Welsh: Medraut, Medrod, etc.) is a character in the Arthurian legend, known as a notorious traitor who fought King Arthur at the Battle of Camlann, where he was killed and Arthur fatally wounded. Tradition varies on his relationship to Arthur, but he is best known today as Arthur's illegitimate son by his half-sister Morgause. In earlier literature, he was considered the legitimate son of Morgause, also known as Anna, with her husband King Lot of Orkney. His brothers or half-brothers are Gawain, Agravain, Gaheris, and Gareth.

My views often fly in the face of the general concensus, so the name of an underdog fits me.

Hmm...I first came up with the name in 06 when I was joining myspace. I wanted a name that NO ONE would ever come up with. At the time, I was obsessed with an anime called Yu Yu Hakusho, especially the one character Hiei Jaganshi. I took the Jagan- part and added the -ic, as Hiei was a demon. Jagan is basically the name of the Third Eye Hiei had and the -ic was added, just like the word Demonic. As for the Solitude, I was very fond of the concept of being forlorn, so Solitude was added. Ever since then, I've used the name Jaganic_Solitude to just about any place I sign up online. Sometimes I screw up accounts and use TracySolitude, but RARELY do I ever use a different username. Jaganic_Solitude has become more of a persona than a username to me cuz now all my friends call me Jag. I'm glad to have a name that NO ONE has ever came up with. Total originality here at it's finest

My name came from an old guy that used to work with me. I have green eyes and he always lived for me lovingly threatening to kick his .... everyday. He also used to refer to me as "mean old green eyed injun" because my grandmother was full blooded native american. I opted to use devil because though I find the injun comment funny, some could be offended by it and didn't want that.

My avatar is my beloved Alex de Large from one of my favorite movies "A Clockwork Orange".

My name is Suzanne and I was in the mood for something different and liked SuZamme.
The avatar I drew. I wanted something to show the fantastic vapor with smoke rings and also include a pv.
I was going to use the pic of me that is on my profile but decided that while it was perfect to use for my olde tyme photo studio, the guns and money didn't float my boat for this fantastic forum.
What a great question about our screen names etc. :cool:
I started reading them and saw the 14 pages and thought I'd just read a few and then ended up reading them all. :D
