    It's not good to stack your records folks. Does bad things to them. Always keep them upright. . .
    it's a fragile thing, this life we lead.

    I wanted a name nobody could figure out how to say or pronounce.

    What, it's not pronounced rock candy? :lol:
    :lol: it is, I still get some people who don't know how to pronounce it.
    It's great when people actually bring me rock candy when they meet me. I like grape and strawberry.
    I will remember this!! But I'm learning to make RCKNDY Colorado style! Lol

    I have been called a red fox before. I've been told I'm sly. Lol not sure why - maybe I'm a good liar :wink:

    I'm a natural red head. Foxyred. LA are my initials. FoxyRedLa has been my email for decades.

    When I signed up I didn't know my email was going to be my username.

    I would have liked my user name to be

    _imjustnothavnit_ or _takemyluckyhand_
    Oh please let it rain today.

    I didn't even put any thought into it. It was just the first thing that came to mind while I was registering to 10C, and never considered that it would become a username that people would actually come to know my by. I wish I'd realized and picked something better (although I supposed it gets my point across)!

    That had something to do with it also. There are a few things going on here, but the poker tournament name was the easiest. When I joined, Last Exit was in heavy rotation in my cd player. Plus, I'm a volunteer fireman and first one in and last one out is a motto in the fire service. Add that to the poker tournament name, and you have the makings of a club name.

    And SOLAT24 was not available.

  • DarthMaeglinDarthMaeglin Posts: 2,572
    I've used this name in a few online places over the years. Darth is a nod to Star Wars, I've loved those movies most of my life, seeing Empire in the theatre at 6 showed me what movies can be. Maeglin is from Tolkien (the Silmarillion specifically), my favourite author of all time (from the pre-Jackson days, lol). It "means" "sharp glance," as I've been known to come to quick insights about things (damn that sounds smug as I write it, lol).
    Essentially, when I don't use my birth name, this has become my fallback "identity," lol.
