    Uh, because it became a nickname amongst my lady friends in high school, Gabe being my actual name - an affectation if you will. My numerous nicknames from my guy friends usually revolved around the idea I was tall, thin, and laid back. It could be worse I guess, they could have called me shit head.

    This is true. We had a friend called Dick Pinkey the Fabbaluss Ass Scab.

    See. It could be worse.
  • I figured that since it would be obvious that I was a Pearl Jam fan since I was posting on their board, I opted for a Flaming Lips song.

    :lol::D That's too funny. Well I'm a single parent father raising my daughter and we do everything together. I missed when you said all that misunderstanding (when did I gain weight after having a child?) but it's still too funny
    Peace

    Thank you for clarifying. I hope I wasn't insulting. I also saw you in the "Sexiest Male Actor/Musician" thread posting a photo of a man, just like I did. So that made me think more of a woman than a man.

    Oh well, the mystery is gone.

    Oh you mean from this post..........Since everyone on the planet may say Eddie Vedder I'll go with.....

    Michael Franti, musician, film-maker, progressive activist
    Thank God(dess) for Michael Franti. Michael is becoming a cultural icon and hero of progressive forces on the planet. His head and heart are in very solid, loving places and he is moving America along toward higher consciousness in these dark times.

    Well Michael's my friend and most people don't know what kind of a great musician he is and many women thinks he sexy. Hell even EV has Michael on his *BODY OF WAR* album.

    BTW ...Don't men can think of other men as good looking/sexy just like we can say they can look ugly too?

    Peace

    eeirepa was/is a magazine that one of my buddy's did. Pretty much wrote about the everything "eerie" in PA (Kinda like the Weird NJ mags, but without the weirdness). I helped out as much as I could. Unfortunately he stopped the mag a few years ago. He said it was cuz he didn't have enough vendors/sponsors. I'm totally not buying it though, I think it was something else though. We did have 4 issues that were pretty successful. And I just added my name to the end of it.

    Not sure if the website is still up, was last time i checked but that was a few months ago.

    My name is John. Part of my family is from Abruzzo, Italy. And PJ's second drummer's last name was Abbruzzese. I thought I might have been playing off of Johnny Guitar, but Backspacer wasn't out yet when I joined.

    PS: I tried "A Furry Thing" but it was already taken. That's when I knew all the good PJ-related names were used up.

    Wooooo iIm bored, and you probably are too. So, what does your username mean? I'll start, mine is plain and simple, Pap is the first three letters from my surname. It's what my friends call me since primary school. Actually, it's the nickname of my older brother. I just borrowed it. :D

    I was thinking your last name was Smear.

    My username is my nickname.

    I enjoy pro basketball a lot, though it's harder now given the state of the team here. I saw the movie singles numerous times and the name seemed to fit.
